Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1060 9Gbps Graphics Card Review

Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1060 9 Gbps

The Nvidia GTX 10xx series has been with us for a while now, and you don’t have to dig through too many reviews to know why they’re so popular. While I’m sure many of you would love to invest in something like the GTX 1080 Ti, the overall cost is simply too much for many. Of course, the sheer insane performance of the 1080 Ti is often far too much for most people’s needs. If you’re gaming at 1080p resolution on a 60 Hz monitor, and you haven’t got endless cash reserves, then the GTX 1060 series is obviously a more tempting option. The card we’re taking a look at today isn’t just any ordinary GTX 1060. The new 9 Gbps model is still the card we know and love but now comes with faster memory out of the box, allowing for even better performance.

With 9 Gbps memory, a stunning WINDFORCE 3X cooler, 16.8M RGB lighting, and factory overclocks, the latest card from Gigabyte AORUS is shaping up nicely. Now, let’s grab the box and go take a closer look at what’s on offer, as well as testing the gaming performance!
