Most important thing is whether your casing got enough clearance. But it seems ok

May I know the difference of Palit GTX 1060 3GB vs 6GB ?

Assuming they are the same version of the cheapest model?

all models are the same, at most 5-7%?? difference on avg of all games, but some games like no or minimal difference.

but still depends on which games u are playing, can try to Google for dome game benchmark.

I meant the 3GB vs 6GB versions... I know the rest of the difference are to do with the cooling / OC etc only...

But what are the main differences for 3GB vs 6GB?

actually what I mean is the performance difference across all GTX 1060 (regardless of brands) 3GB and 6GB.

well these are differences (can be googled):

but with one fewer SM, reducing the core count by 10%. That drops the GTX 1060 from 1280 CUDA cores to 1152 CUDA cores (128 cores per SM), alongside 8 fewer TMUs. (source from gamernexus)

The 3GB should be able to do 1440p @ 144hz ?

Currently on 1440p @ 60hz but might looking to upgrade 144hz in future..

sadly i dunno about that, and u might need to reduce your graphic setting just to allow u to play at that fps.

but there is one time i see the posting of a guy playing overwatch at epic graphic (not sure of the resolutions but probably 1080p) hovering around avg 120+ (max hit maybe 130?) but when shoot out becomes 100+

The card is good for 1080p currently, and not so much suited for 1440p. The 6gb version I had worked well on my 1440p monitor, but newer games are more demanding.

 

[xtwis7]

144hz at 1440p is very unlikely. 1080p 144hz no problem.

Ah I see, there shouldn't be of any issues when u buy the card and replace your current system.

But please do remember to use DDU to remove your previous amd driver b4 installing the GTX 1060.
