System Diagnostics

VRAM Capacity

Video Memory Stores textures and game assets. More VRAM = Higher resolution (4K) and better texture quality settings.

6GB

1080p Low/Medium Limit

Core Clock

Engine Speed How fast the GPU processes data. Higher speeds generally mean smoother gameplay and higher FPS.

1.71 GHz

Standard Base Clock

Weaker Console Parity (PS5)

The "Leonida" Baseline Compares this GPU's raw power against the PlayStation 5. A score of 100 means it matches the console exactly.

Stronger

Legacy Gen Current Gen Next Gen Ready

Data Highway

Memory Bus Width. Like lanes on a highway—wider means more data (textures) can move at once.

Free FPS Tech

AI Upscaling (DLSS/FSR). Renders game at lower resolution then uses AI to make it look sharp, boosting FPS significantly.

FSR

Light Engine

Hardware for realistic lighting, reflections, and shadows. Very demanding on performance.

Key Strengths

6GB VRAM for moderate texture quality
Pascal architecture for efficient performance
Support for DirectX 12 and Vulkan

Potential Bottlenecks

1280 CUDA cores limit high-resolution performance
6GB VRAM may cause texture pop-in in demanding games

Engineer's Recommendation

"The GTX 1060 is suitable for 1080p gaming but struggles at higher resolutions. It's a budget option for less demanding titles. Upgrade to a newer GPU for better performance."
