Hi guys, i am planning to build my first budget gaming pc next month after my overseas work secondment finished.
While browsing through GPUs online in my home country's local online store, i saw a very cheap Zotac GTX 1060 mini 6gb.
Did a quick research and found super positive reviews e.g. the performance is identical with other gtx 1060, silent fan, temperature, etc. Without a second thought i purchased it and now its on its way shipped to my home.
It was later that i found out that the GPU had temperature issue. On a typical gaming load, it can go up to 80C. I am total newbie and i dont know if 80C is normal in GPUs, but it seems pretty hot.
Did i made a wrong decision by getting zotac 1060 6g mini? I dont do overclocking at all and my case is mid tower with 120mm intake and exhaust fan. Will this card temperature be safe on my build?
My currently planned build is:
CPU: i5 7500
Mobo: Asrock b250m performance
GPU: zotac gtx 1060 6g mini
PSU: EVGA 550 GD
Ram: ocpc xtreme ddr4 4x2gb
Hdd: WDC Blue sata3.5 1tb
Case: bitfenix ronin (with stock fan)
Sorry for not using pc part picker. Im typing on my phone..
And as a side question, is my build okay? I cherry picked the parts from other people's build and asked some questions here and there (mostly reddit and tomshardware). Do i need to tweak my build a bit?
