Hi There,

You might have seen this question so many times on the form, but none of the suite my needs. I'm looking to build a vr ready pc, for the HTC Vive, but I don't have the a lot of money. I was originally going to buy a GTX 1060 6GB G1 Gaming from gigabyte, but the prices have gone up. I was then considering the GTX 1060 3GB G1 Gaming but I don't think it will keep a steady frame rate. So will the 3GB 1060 be powerful enough to power the HTC Vive?

Thanks :)

More Vram is always better. And the 3 gig edition is also a cut-down version of the 6 gig edition so it's not just the Vram.

the 1060 3gb not only has less vram but is also internally neutered

get the 6gb 1060
