Echoing last week's story on a GTX 1060, a lot can be said about the state of the PC hardware market when a video card being sold for close to regular retail price is a news story. But such is the case right now with cryptocurrency mining driving a price surge and scarcity in GPUs. Those on the lookout for a decent price on a few mid-range cards can look to MSI models for both the Nvidia GTX 1060 ($330 USD) and AMD RX 580 ($320) video cards. They're currently available on Newegg, but these tend to sell out quickly.
The MSI's 6GB GTX 1060 OCV1 sports a dual-fan design to help keep this overclocked card cool, as opposed to the single-fan version that was available last week. It runs a core clock of 1544MHz and boost clock of 1759MHz with 1280 CUDA cores and 6GB of GDDR5 video memory. GTX 1060s are well suited to run modern PC games competently at 1080p. This particular model has one HDMI 2.0 port, one DisplayPort 1.4, and one DVI-D port. It is recommended to have a power supply that provides at least 400 watts. Before cryptocurrency mining was huge, 6GB GTX 1060 cards tended to go for under $300 depending on the specific model and retailer. As a result, $330 for a factory overclocked, dual-fan version is relatively reasonable.
