MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X 3G Pre-Order

MSI’s Geforce GTX 1060 Gaming X 3G is based on a GPU that boasts similar performance to that of its bigger brothers—the GTX 1070 and 1080—but it’s smaller in stature. Improving upon its popular predecessor, the GTX 960, this upgraded version blows it out of the water in both performance and size. Thanks to its innovative Pascal architecture—which has been in the making since 2012—this GPU delivers clocking speeds up to 1594 MHz (and even more with overclocking). It packs 7.2 billion transistors into a smaller fabrication process, which makes for a more powerful, more compact, and more energy efficient GPU.

Note: This drop qualifies for a $15 MIR from MSI. The MIR is posted at the bottom of this page. 

Built to meet the demands of the the latest in gaming technology including virtual reality, multiple monitor setups, and ultra high-resolution optics, the GTX 1060 X 3G is equipped to handle any type of game with ease. With plug-and-play capability with the latest VR headsets and low latency performance, it gives gamers an immersive experience they can see, hear, and feel. Plus, with a sleek red and black aesthetic and 16.8 million colors of customizable LED lighting, it will seamlessly fit into your existing setup.

To keep from overheating, it features a TORX 2.0 dispersion-fan blade, which generates 22-percent more air pressure for silent performance throughout the most graphically demanding situations. Airflow Control Technology pushes more air directly onto the Twin FroZR VI heat pipes, which makes for even lower temperatures.
