PC Gamers are undoubtedly spoilt for choice when it comes to GTX 1060s and MSI's GTX 1060 Gaming X is arguably one of the better options. While not everyone will be sold on the looks, red and black isn't exactly one size fits all colour scheme, the MSI GT...

£70 more expensive than the reference RX 480, “The MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X is built to an impeccable standard and the latest Twin Frozr VI cooling design is nothing short of revolutionary. Additionally, the graphics card is able to defeat the GTX 980 in mos
PriceAccording to MSI, this particular version of the GTX 1060 will retail for £299.99. Apparently, the GTX 1060 will start from £239.99 and this probably refers to the ultra-cheap blower coolers with a bland, plastic construction. I expect higher end mod...
Nvidia introduced us to the Pascal architecture with GeForce GTX 1080, and it blew us away by besting previous-gen flagships at a familiar price point. The 1070 that followed also edged out the fastest Maxwell-based cards. And it did that for hundreds of...
