Pros
Pro Required 6-pin and stays cool. It has RGB
Pro Usually very silent
The Palit GeForce GTX 1060 Dual is a very silent card, despite having two large fans. Fans stay off for temperatures under 50 degrees C and even when operating under heavy load, only a barely audible hum can be heard.
Cons
Con The lighting only supports red, green or blue
The logo on the back of the card has lighting which supports red, green or blue. That is, not the full RGB color spectrum, but only those three individual colors.
Con Weird color scheme
The red, black and gold color scheme is not for everyone. If it had been just red and black it would have been much better and much easier to find a suitable motherboard, case and everything else to fit that color scheme. While not a deal breaker for most people who are only interested in performance, it can be a bit annoying for people who care about how their build looks.
Con Low temps before fan kicks in 50c
Con Rather large
This card is a rather large one, so you need to make sure your chassis is big enough.
