Product Manuals
Q: What does the BV mean on the Best Buy MSI GTX 1060 gaming x 6gb cards? What is different?
A: That's how Best Buy gets away with not being held to their price matching policy with online retailers. You'll find this exact same card elsewhere, but not version "BV."
A: i found no difference between the BV vs the non BV version.. my guess MSI just names the card with a BV at the end (Bestbuy Verison ?)
Q: Why does it state "no warranty?" I assume its new.
A: Don't know why it says not available, but all msi gpus come with a 3 year warranty from the manufacturer.
A: The dimensions of the product are as follows: 5.5 x 1.5 x 10.9 inches.
A: The 8 pin port that the card has is the external 12v, unfortunately the card need the power in that port and can no be used with a 6 pin cable from the power supply. The solution is to change the power supply for one that has the 8 pin cable like the Corsair RM850x
A: No, it will be too big of a form factor for that small PC.
Q: If i buy this. Can you help me put it on my computer. Cause i dont know how to do that
A: You would be better off buying a card from anyone other than MSI. If you can't put in your own video card, you won't want to have to deal with the way MSI will treat you if you have a defective part. Do yourself a favor and choose a different manufacturer.
A: yes now it is
