    Comparing the pricing of Founders Edition cards with Radeon reference cards exclusively would have to be the subject of more specific article, and may be skewed towards AMD due to their lack of a FE premium.

    The point of this article's pricing was simply to compare the pricing of the cheapest, currently available graphics cards, regardless of partner brand
    Fair enough.

    I just got some pricing of one of the local distributors on a Asus GTX 1060 Turbo.

    https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/TURBO-GTX1060-6G/

    Local retailer pricing should be around the R5399 price mark, which is not bad.

    That's an interesting cooler design, looks quite cool. Stock and pricing of the GeForce GTX 1060 seems quite good at the moment.
