[18] Founders Edition cards prices (with the exception of the GTX 1070 Ti and 1080 Ti) are greater than MSRP of partners cards; however, some partners' cards, incorporating a complex design, with liquid or hybrid cooling may cost more than Founders Edition.

It’s possible the decision has been taken in order to make sure those who really want the performance will buy the higher capacity card no matter what, but it still feels like a very strange move releasing two cards with the same name and yet different GPUs.

Rather than plant the power header in the middle of the board, nVidia's shifted right-of-center and is likely using some sort of wiring/pass-through to the solder points on the PCB.

NVidia made no announcement of such a product, and seems (at this moment) to only be planning a 6GB GTX 1060. He recalls his first difficult decision with GN's direction: "I didn't know whether or not I wanted 'Gamers' to have a possessive apostrophe -- I mean, grammatically it should, but I didn't like it in the name.

NVIDIA’s New GTX 1060 Answers AMD’s RX 480, Starts at $249 and Launches July 19th NVIDIA has today announced the GTX 1060 GPU, their answer to AMD’s budget-oriented RX 480. These are what were previously known as reference cards, i.e. Despite rumors around the internet last week, there is no official 3GB model of the GTX 1060 known to exist at this time. There will be some delay after submitting a comment. Copyright © 2020 GamersNexus, LLC. SMP support is available to the GTX 1060, with assistance from nVidia's Polymorph engines. SLI HB only supports a maximum of 2-way SLI using SLI HB bridges, however if using traditional SLI bridges it can support a maximum of 4-way SLI but the performance is mostly improved in synthetic benchmarks only. The GTX 1070 Founders Edition reference card. On the face of it you’d be forgiven for thinking the rumour was purely a result of the split run of AMD RX 480 cards, with 4GB and 8GB respectively. What do you think? We’ve tested, overclocked and tested again, and the GTX 1060 is just a hair’s breadth away from the performance of our heavily-overclocked Palit GTX 980 card, which is seriously impressive for a GPU that’s around half the size and nearly half the price. It follows the same design of the GP104 meaning the GTX 1060’s GPU is made of a pair of Graphics Processing Clusters (GPC) with 640 cores in each and potentially 32 Render Output Units (ROPs). The GTX 1060 is also making good with the efficiency claims that have followed all the Pascal-based cards so far. Only the MX150 is based on Pascal's GP108 die used on the GT1030 for Desktops, with higher clock frequencies compared to its Desktop counterpart, while the other chips in the MX Series were re-branded versions of the previous generation GPUs (MX130 is a re-branded GT940MX GPU while MX110 is a re-branded GT920MX GPU). NVidia's new GP106-equipped GeForce GTX 1060 has been announced as of today, alongside partial specs, a release date, and some software. Neither of those reports really tally up though. Whenever we ask for technical assistance in the office his stock response is "go stick your head in a pig.". Is it worth spending this much cash on a new GPU with only 3GB of video memory right now? These are what were previously known as reference cards, i.e. This allows the scheduler to dynamically adjust the amount of the GPU assigned to multiple tasks, ensuring that the GPU remains saturated with work except when there is no more work that can safely be distributed.
With the performance of these cards Nvidia aren’t going to want anyone building a GTX 1080-beating rig with a pair of GTX 1060s for $100 less. The GTX 1060 release date is July 19. It made sense to just leave it as 'Gamers.'". We’ve been told by some board partners to expect physical cards to be available in one to two weeks.

Here’s everything you need to know about the latest GeForce card. The GTX 1060 is running on a 192-bit memory bus and the initial cards will all come with a full 6GB of video memory, running at 8Gbps.
