My GTX 1060 died recently. Im thinking of buying a new gpu but the prices are horrible in my country (Philippines). Should I buy a replacement 1060, go straight for an upgrade like a 1070 or wait for turing? Ive recently read that Nvidia wont show anything this coming GTC and GDC so im a bit worried and the prices of their new cards might be more expensive than pascal due to the on going mining craze.

and if I buy a 1070 will it be future proof at gaming in 1080p? I wont upgrade my monitor anytime soon.

Get your 1060 replaced by manufacturer's warranty first, before thinking about trying to buy another graphics card. Prices right now are way too high everywhere no thanks to crypto currency miners.
