So to keep things short and sweet ill get straight to the point. I want to buy a gtx 1060 however i dont know if i really need the 6gb for 1080p gaming. Will the 3gb vram be enough?
Planning on playing overwatch, Gta, and whatever else i feel like however feel free to tell me what games u play and if the 3gb vram would be enough. Remember to keep in mind only 1080p.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, this is my first post.
 
Solution
if you can afford 6GB, go for it.
if not, 3GB will do the job. in some games, you will have to lower some settings to avoid stuttering etc.
