No resell, no hash rate improvement, 90 days warrantly, cost to much. Stay away from this GPU mining build for moment, at my point.

Thanks that's what I probably thought ,it's just a clocked 1060 as I understand it ..and a cost-hash rate is weak comparing to 480 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think it will get harder to resell any card tho with market in future being flooded from hard core miners

Your comment echos my thoughts on these so call "mining" cards as well. The two big negatives, only a 90-day warranty and the lack of a way to hook up a monitor (i.e. deter resale to gamer's), would necessitate a deep discount on these cards to make it worth while. So far, the cards do not seem to be much less, if at all, lower in price from their gaming versions.

If these cards were available 3 months ago and for ~20-25% less than the comparable gaming versions, it would have been the go-to card for mining. Unfortunately, it is too little to late for the introduction of these, which undoubtedly will be viewed by the executives of these companies as a failed product when in reality it was simply bad timing. Down-turns in mining due to excessive capacity (network hashrate) usually take a couple of years to clear out, so these will probably be too outdated by the time the next big mining wave hits again.

Thanx for your reply's , hah maybe they just overclocked their 1060 card and didn't put a video slot on it ..probably piece of junk. So pretty much AMD 480 is still one of the best solutions ?

Try reading one of the OTHER 3 or 4 threads specifically about the P106-100.

I am not sure about p106-100 mining edition because price si very near regular 1060 with 6gb, but have very weak cooling, no display ports, too short
warranty...
I will rather go on regular cards.
