I realise these are being posted on-and-off from Laptops Direct, but this is currently the cheapest Nvidia GTX 1060 6gb card I could find.
Price: £224.97 + £2.95 delivery, but save £20 when you subscribe to the good old Which? Magazine trial for £1 (details of the deal on the website), which can be cancelled within the first month.

Well done, but sorry I've run out of medals until the new year.

I hate GPU shopping. Start with a 1050:
"Yeah, but the Ti is a lot more powerful and it's only an extra £25. More than worth the extra."
"But the Ti is only £40 cheaper than the 1060 3GB and is about 50% more powerful. It's a bargain!"
"Ooh the 1060 6GB is on offer..."

So it's actually £228.92 then. Very misleading, I don't want a Which trial thanks.

OK, Let me put this out:
for £209 YOU CANNOT GET A BETTER GTX 1060 CARD IN NVIDIA.
Of course you can get:
* GTX 1060 for £188 BUT that's with 3GB RAM.
* GTX 1050 for £145 BUT that's with 4GB RAM and its not 1060.
Yes, IMO these will be good for a couple of years @ 1080p.

Considerably superior. It is twice as fast in many games and it has three times the memory, important for new titles. Good upgrade

I've just done this same upgrade and honestly haven't noticed a huge improvement yes frame-rates are much higher but they were high anyway and I seem to have some compatibility problems with COD black ops III and Ghosts where the sniper reticle lags when quick scoping, had to stick the old card back in just so that I wasn't humiliated in multiplayer. Maybe I need to upgrade my 4 year old Z77 mobo and Win7.

At this price and specs This card is a steal.
If you can spare £50 more, and would love to have AMD, get this instead: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-RX-480-GAMING-8G/dp/B01JGQBMB4/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1482323281&sr=1-2&keywords=RX

Unless you are dedicating your rig to Doom, there is very little reason to spend 40quid more, apart from already owning a FreeSync monitor.
Not to mention, the 1060 is more power efficient. But that's minor compared to the simple fact the 1060 outperforms the 480 8gb.
