Hi guys, I'm trying to decide on a model for gtx 1060gb.
I've been doing some research over different models and
just having a hard time deciding between these 3.

----1) EVGA GTX 1060 6GB SC ACX 2.0 with heat pipe

----2) EVGA GTX 1060 6GB SSC ACX 3.0

----3) MSI GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X Twin Frozr


In my area cheapest one is 1) and the rest 2 are similar in pricing (both are about $40cad more than 1)).

If you had to narrow these to one, what would you recommend?

Oh the case I'll be using is Fractal Design Define Nano S (Itx case).

Thank you!

Depends on if you want to overclock. The first one is great for the price, and can overclock some. But the second two have 8-pin power connectors and would achieve a higher stable overclock.

+1 for EVGA

I own the first one. GPU Boost 3.0 boosts the core clock to 2012MHz automatically.

I personally recommend first:
EVGA is well known to be one of the best distributors for Nvidia cards

And for which EVGA card:
I recommend the ACX 3.0 card because of its more recent cooler design.
