If you bought it second-hand, you have been ripped off. You can try reinstalling the graphics drivers, in case the GPU was upgraded, but it's unlikely.

If it's new, check your order.

The G series ranges from 1050 to 1060. Are you sure you bought a configuration with a 1060? Check your order invoice.

Does your sales invoice show a GTX 1060?

I bought it fresh new, it said 1060 the price was like for a 1060 but from where can i get the driver i need because i have big speculations that my driver is wrong

Unlikely this is a driver issue, the 1050Ti and 1060 will use the same driver package to install.

But it had integrated linux and i kind of bought windows 10 and i had problems i fixed them but i think i installed the wrong driver then

Again highly unlikely as both cards use the same driver package making it next to impossible to install the wrong driver.

That is depressing.. I got to talk to the seller company now.,

Im sorry for the language but the company i bought the laptop from are Removed...
I play full price 2640 leva (around 1563.52$ with 1060)
And what i got is the 1385.85$ version with a 1050ti..
I am so mad because they sell laptops for a living and they make mistakes like this, for me thats just unacceptable.
