The only thing in Asus Strix i like is its looks for sure and you can connect 2 more fan :D that can be controlled by the GPU temp and i am not sure but how much you can overclock it

Yes I am playing at the 1080p 60hz for now but soon will buy better monitor
but which 6GB one to buy the price difference in the 6GB one too was too much like starting from 350$ to 460$
 
I think all the GTX 1060 @6GB will perform the same there are some difference in the Clock speeds but you can overclock too i like the strix but thats too much overpriced
you should decide on the looks then 100$ more paying for the looks worth it or not?

Correct me someone if i am wrong that the Performance of all 1060 Are Same
 


Yup i know thats how the GPU prices in india from last few months......
the GTX 1080 Price here are close to 1000$ :bounce:

All 1060 6GB models should perform similarly. The more expensive ones are typically just quieter and cooler. They may overclock a bit better too. I wouldn't go any higher than the MSI Gaming X, and even that seems super overpriced. I'm not sure exact model the MSI Dual Fan is, but I'd be tempted to get that one or the Zotac.
