After the one-two punch of a shocker on the Indian pricing of the GTX 1080 and 1070. The Nvidia GTX 1060 is revealed to have a starting price of Rs. 22,999 for a card with the power of a GTX 980. This is for the base variant of the card, no details on what that could be and its unclear if this is for the Founders Edition. So far this doesn't look like it's going to turn out like the AMD Radeon RX 480 pricing debacle with a lot of hidden distributor costs and more.

The Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 will feature 1280 CUDA Cores, a whopping 6GB of GDDR5 Memory running at 8GBPS and a Boost Clock of 1.7 Ghz that can be overclocked to 2GHz. The power efficiency is said to be twice that of the GTX 980.

Hot on the heels of the 1060 announcement, the 1060 supports NVIDIA VRWorks—a developer kit that allows developers to build physical behaviors into the VR environments. Along with this, NVIDIA Ansel will finally be available this Month. Which is a nifty game capture tool that allows gamers to zoom in and out at any point as well as capture 360 panoramas and large images. Ansel will hit Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Mirrors Edge Catalyst, which will then be followed by a slew of Epic games as well as The Division and No Man's Sky.

The Geforce GTX 1060 Founders Edition, straight from NVIDIA with love. Will be available here on 19th July. With that beautiful metal, low poly exterior, the Founders edition looks great. Zotac has also announced its own versions of the card for the same release date. Zotac's two variants on the card include the GTX 1060 Mini, priced at Rs. 22,999, and the GTX 1060 AMP Edition, priced at Rs. 24,999.

Let's all keep our fingers crossed that the pricing is around Rs. 22,999. Atleast for the base 6GB card. Making the 1060 an even better deal than the AMD Radeon RX 480 which is quite overpriced in India.
