MSI GTX 1060 Cyclone 3GB identity

This graphics card is a GeForce GTX 1060 model from MSI with 3GB of GDDR5 memory. It connects through a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot and uses a 192bit memory interface. The core clock runs at 8008MHz and it can drive displays up to 7680×4320 resolution.

MSI GTX 1060 Cyclone 3GB suitability

The card suits builds that need a 6pin power connector and a single-slot bracket layout. It is not suited for workloads demanding more than 3GB of video memory or for systems lacking a 6pin power lead. Buyers should verify case clearance and power supply cabling before purchase.

3GB GDDR5 memory capacity

The 3GB GDDR5 frame buffer is the specification that decides compatibility with modern titles and texture settings. Games requiring larger VRAM allocations will encounter limits on this card. Match the memory size to your target resolution and quality preset to avoid bottlenecks.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the card is running at the 8008MHz memory frequency after installation?

Open GPU-Z or the NVIDIA control panel and check the memory clock; it should read 8008MHz when the GTX 1060 is under load.

What exactly ships with the CYCLONE 3G and what must I source myself?

Only the graphics card itself is included — no original box, no cables, no manuals. You will need a 6pin power connector from your PSU and a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot.

Should I choose the 3GB version or look for a larger frame buffer for 7680×4320 output?

The 3GB GDDR5 frame buffer drives 7680×4320, but heavy textures at that resolution may exceed 3GB; if your workload needs more VRAM, select a 6GB model instead.
