I’m thinking of getting a laptop with a 1060 6GB in it. Is this too weak for today’s standards?
Is a GTX 1060 6GB gonna cut it?

depends what games you want to play and at what level of performance.
Josiah King
it's fine for 1080p
Nathaniel Anderson
>a laptop with a 1060 6GB in it.
What??? How???
Colton Foster
You're gonna regret it in a year.
1660 Ti minimum if you wanna play today's games.
Josiah Murphy
This, the 1060 is barely even a mid tier card now. Also don't get a laptop unless you absolutely have to. They have terrible cooling which plays a bigger part in performance than you think.
Levi Nguyen
It's a good card for a laptop, bought one 2 months ago. Anything better would be overkill bc of shit laptop cooling and overprice, you're better off just buying a decent PC then.
Ethan Peterson
I have a 1070, and I'm still doing fine.
Jackson Ortiz
It's also the stronger card.
Anthony Miller
Yes it's great, I bought mine about 2 years ago able run most things on high settings
Carson Garcia
don't buy nvidia if you need a card in this low and midrange price point
Nicholas Taylor
That’s what I’m planning on
Lucas Smith
im thinking of getting
ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Strix OC
is it gonna cut it?
Gabriel Garcia
>laptop
what a faggot
Wyatt Davis
is there any compelling reason to upgrade from my 980ti at this point or should I wait another gen
Tyler Torres
>is a top tier last gen videocard gonna cut it
No motherfucker, get two of them
Adam Sanders
>laptop
they never learn, do they

1080 is the standard. RX 5700 is the future

Don't get the 1060, it's too weak these days
Brandon Hall
take away the thicc fan and heatsinke and it's just a thin plate with a few chips on it
now put on extra flat mobile fans and heatsink and it's done
though it will be loud as fuck
Oliver Walker
I've had my 1060 the last two years and it plays everything great, although I'm a 1080p 60FPS pleb that mostly plays VR games these days.
Also I wouldn't recommend a gaming laptop unless you travel a lot and don't have any other choice. If something goes wrong or you wanna upgrade in the future it's gonna be near impossible to make that laptop any better without straight up buying one that's more up to date.
Henry Cooper
I already own a decent pc I just travel a lot and want to be able to play while that happens
Also VR is more ideal with a laptop
Christian Gonzalez
unironic nvidia shills, don't listen to them OP - a 1060 6gb is absolutely fine, although I would be concerned about cooling in a laptop as other anons pointed out.
Levi Morgan
>1080 is the standard
For who the top 1% of steam users? 1060 is above average for a typical PC gamer
Nathaniel Reyes
Gaming laptop is a meme. Laptop with GPU is a meme in general.
Nicholas Morales
>Laptop
Please don't in 2 years when you can't upgrade and the system is a literal pile of shit you will regret spending 2 grand for something you barely use instead of 2 grand on something you can upgrade whenever you want.
Tyler Fisher
For me, it's the RTX 2060 Gaming Z.
Matthew Jenkins
>660 Ti
yeah im getting by with that just fine
Carson Lewis
1060 owner here.
I also have a 2060 but it apparently smelled like burning in my last pc.
Should I be worried about installing it in my current pc for this reason?
Julian Allen
It’s 600 I wouldn’t spend 2 grand on that much
Jeremiah Gray
I've yet to see a gaming laptop for 600 desu
Angel Wilson
it will play gen 8 games but not gen 9 games, forget about next gen games next year and on, enjoy your backlog, hope it starts from 2013 ^_^
Juan Gomez
>had 750
>upgraded to 1060 6gb
Everything is lookin good.
Kevin Smith
Imagine being a faggot who cares about the latest shit games.
Juan Carter
>last gen
subtle bait
James Perez
Hello?
Isaac Hughes
>laptop
Angel Jenkins
Don't buy the GTX 1060
Games are designed for new GPU architectures and Pascal will fall behind significantly
