I want to have your quick advise/opinion on these two cards: - GALAX 1060 6GB OC - Inno3D 1060 6GB Twin version Also please let me know what brand of memory GALAX and Inno3D uses. Thanking you in anticipation. Regards, Rizwan Title: Re: GALAX 1060 6GB OC -- OR -- Inno3D 1060 6GB Twin version Post by: rizabbasi on October 23, 2017, 10:52:58 AM Links:

They're quite good on ETH (ethash) and ZEN (Equihash). Its' memory is Hynix as be shown in attached img.
For ETH: +300 mem, -100 core, 85% power limit, each card results to 21.3 Mh/s. For ZEN: +130 mem, +150 core, 85% power limit, each card draws about 298 sol/s. So, so far so good. https://imgur.com/a/5mz5K Title: Re: GALAX 1060 6GB OC -- OR -- Inno3D 1060 6GB Twin version Post by: rizabbasi on October 23, 2017, 12:21:15 PM Currently I'm running 3 rigs of Galax 1060 6GB OC.

One question: On GALAX GPU specs (http://www.galax.com/en/graphics-card/10-series/galax-geforce-gtx-1060-oc-6gb.html) its stated that the Minimum System Power Requirement (W) is 400W. I want to use same 6 cards on the rig. Its also stated that the Maximum Graphics Card Power (W) is 120W. I have Corsair HX1200i PSU. Based on above, it seems a 2400W PSU would be required (for 6 GPUs having 400W each) or its something I am really missing.

So basically, all other devices such as CPU+MB...could consume maximum at about 120W, 6 cards draw: 6*120 (100% usage) = 720W.
So 850W PSU could be enough to handle your rig. For me, I'm using 850W PSU to supply 6 cards GALAX as well, but I set power limit at 85% for safe and stable operation.

Regards, Rizwan you have a 1200 watt psu. and at 100% the tdp for each card is 120 watts x 6 = 720 watts add 80 for other gear you are at 800 watts. since most of us set the tdp at 70% to 85% your cards will use around 505-615 watts. the psu should work assuming it has enough cables to make your connections in case you need spare pcie cables http://www.corsair.com/en-us/site-search?searchQuery=CP-8920114 https://i.imgur.com/aPJJDLm.png |
