Much appreciated.
At 1080p High settings, I should say.

Can any GTX 1060 6GB owners tell me how many frames they get on planet surfaces?

50 everywhere
That's a 20fps improvement for me. Cheers!
Usually 60 FPS in space, 54-55 FPS in stations and around the same at planet surfaces.
PC master race guys would consider it unacceptable, but honestly for me if it's above 45 FPS, I'm fine with that.

Bottleneck?
?
I think my CPU is fine. Only times the frames drop is on planet. Then again it's been a long time since I purchased a major component, so I might be out of the loop.
Yeah, my standards are pretty low. But I've reached a point where I would like to see an increase.
As you can see, we are already getting 50 and 60,and others will say other numbers.
It all depends if you have anything else running, your SSD, RAM, conflicts in your OS, services, AV, and many other factors.
One thing is for sure, you will get much more than 30 fps by the looks of it

Yeah, I think it'll be a worthwhile upgrade by the looks of things.
Any increase in frames that's a two digit number will make me happy, even if it's only an additional 10.

Shhhh!!! Don't tempt the FPS fairy
Way too late for that. XD
I already get that with my rig, it is due replacement soon however I generally stay between 40 & 60fps everywhere at 1080p (with medium / high settings) or 50-85fps at 1080p "Ultra" a resolution I'm stuck at at the moment because my screen is a 720p telly (monitor broke lol).
But in both resolutions I've seen a decent fps hike as the season progressed.
I already know (through afterburner) that the processor in my rig is the weak point here as it quite regularly hits 100% usage at both 1080p & 720p...
The GTX 1060 should be somewhere between the 970 & 980 in terms of performance.

My 680 with only 2Gb Vram manages 60fps at 1080p on most settings maxed on almost every planet. I'm sure it should be a breeze for 1060.
I get 30~ fps on Medium/High settings at 1080p on an old AMD HD 6870 1Gb.
50fps seems low for such a new card....?
Not that I'd complain. I stop noticing FPS changes above 45~. Lol

Are you in the UK(south ? west ? north ? east ?) ? Can you travel ?
Would you like some free stuff?(If answer is yes then I will go upstairs and look for you,but no time to post hence asking you to travel)
I think I have a processor, 1080p HP monitor and 670GTX(2 of),but no promises.
I would be helpful to have all the specs of your build to be able to help here.
Not a 1060 but AMD RX 480 which is the equivalent in spec
Playing all ultra settings 1680 x 1050 with super sampling set to 1.5x i get around mid 50 frames a second on planet surfaces.
Similar if use AMD VSR and set graphics to 2560 x 1600 with supersampling to 1.0

You should be getting 60fps everywhere with that card. The only thing that puts a dent in my 1070 8GB is ss2.0 and large planetary structures. The 1060 6GB is about as powerful as a GTX 970. Both my GTX 970 rigs run planets just fine at 60fps/ultra with shadows on high.
You've either got a misconfigured graphics setting (check supersampling is at 1) or you've got some kind of hardware issue. What CPU are you running?

I'm running a GTX 970 which is about the same as the 1060 and I have everything maxed out, running 1440p and while I will experience frame drops and stutters when approaching a planet or dropping in at a station, I normally run 90-144 fps... I would think a GTX 960 should be able to run 1080p at 60fps. You do know the Nvidia Control Panel (right click on the desktop to find it) has a separate settings file that can override your game settings. I'd play around with setting things to performance instead of quality in the Nvidia Control Panel and see if you see any difference.
Here is a guide that explains what the settings do. http://www.tweakguides.com/NVFORCE_6.html
Also, your processor shouldn't be a bottleneck with this game. I went from an I5 3570k to an I7 6700k and I don't think I saw any major improvements in this game. It greatly improved Battlefield 1 though. Something isn't optimized right.
Personally, while I want to upgrade video card to the 1070 or above, I am going to wait til this fall when the new cards come out.
