Well why not try to find a used 1060? I'm sure there are plenty available on Used sites. Just try to avoid the 3GB model, don't let the lower price fool you, you will probably regret not spending the money on a 6GB card. You should also list your powers supplies relevant information that is on a sticker on the side of it, also important it has PCI power connectors if you chose to go with a better card requiring power

So here's performance levels:



I would not go with any of the power hungry RX 570/580/590 cards. Rx 5500 XT or GTX 1660 Super (the replacement for the GTX 1060) would be my suggestions.

I generally approve of this suggestion bar the claim that GTX 1660 is the successor to 1060. It's not. 2060 is.

Well I think it's both, so there! :p :laugh: But you're right. The '60 card of the current generation should match or beat the '80 card of the previous generation, and you need a GTX 2060 to beat/match the GTX 1080.
