NVIDIA and EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 Video Card Review

Post by Apoptosis »

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 features the brand new Pascal GP106 GPU that is made on the 16nm FinFET manufacturing process by TSMC. For this launch article we’ll be looking at the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Founders Edition graphics card ($299) and the EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB SuperClocked retail card ($259 before a $10 mail-in rebate). This is EVGA’s standard Superclock edition card that features their ACX 2.0 GPU cooler with a single fan design that puts the card at only 7.1-inches in length. Read on to find out how these cards perform!

Nice card! Would be better if they would have left SLI in it due to the pricing being more accessible for multiple cards.

Nate, I like the color change for the overclocked bar chart!!!!! Would be REALLY nice to see that in the normal test bar charts too so it is quick and easy to find the card you are reviewing.

I wish there was an easy way to do it Excel. Do you know of a fast method in Excel?

With 9 benchmark titles/applications at roughly 3 resolutions each that means I have to sit there and manually color the bars and there are three bars per chart. 9 x 3 x 3 = 81 bar colors to change. Then when I add the next card I need to move those ~80 bar colors back to default and then change ~80 more bar colors for the newly added card. Is there an easier way to do it as that takes a long time and tons of clicks.

I was able to mass select my "80" bars and change their color together. It even worked to reset any individual selection coloring I had done. Adding data introduced no new issues.

Is your Excel not allowing a single click on the chart to select the series all-together?

I have one excel workbook that has 12 sheets in it with one sheet per game or test. Each sheet contains 2-3 charts for the different resolutions or tests. If I single click the bars it changes all the colors, but just on that one chart. I then need to select an individual bar and change the color one at a time on just the card being tested. It doesn't change the bar colors on the other charts on that sheet let along the other 12 sheets. I'm using Excel 2013.

Ah right. Across multiple charts. No I don't have a clue.

No clue here either cause even a chart template I don't think would work due to the line changing that needs colored. I do not know anything about macros so I have no clue if that would be an option. I also think VB code can be used..

now if an excel guru would come by and figure out a way to do a bar line color change by just typing in the name associated with that bar across multiple sheets and then resetting said color by using another search string, that would be golden. Seems easy when I say it but it is probably a nightmare to code.

Still looks nice with a different color :mrgreen:
