GeForce GTX 1060 vs GeForce GTX TITAN: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce GTX 1060 vs GeForce GTX TITAN

The GeForce GTX 1060 is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the GeForce GTX TITAN. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce GTX 1060 starts at $134 GBP against $1,148 GBP for the GeForce GTX TITAN. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce GTX 1060 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 1190%. The GeForce GTX 1060 is trading below its $299 GBP MSRP β€” a genuine deal. The GeForce GTX TITAN still sits about $149 GBP above its $999 GBP MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 1060 draws just 120W versus 230W for the GeForce GTX TITAN, and it also delivers more performance per watt β€” so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Pascal architecture on a TSMC 16nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.

Memory & Bandwidth

The GeForce GTX TITAN's memory is faster β€” 288 GB/s versus 192 GB/s (384-bit vs 192-bit bus) β€” which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.

Generation & Longevity

The GeForce GTX 1060 is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce GTX TITAN (Pascal vs Kepler), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1060 or GeForce GTX TITAN?

The GeForce GTX 1060 is the all-round winner here β€” it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce GTX TITAN if you find it at a steep discount.
