GTX 1060 discussion thread

[blissz]

got 6 Gigabyte 1060 3gb mini's They do exactly 20 Mh/s ETH each. (overclocked mem) Those are shipped with Hynix, but it's okish. With samsung chips I think you can expect 22 Mh/s.

Each of my Gigabyte 3GB Minis gets 25MH/s.

You're lucky they are shipped with samsung memory I think? (gpu-z will show)
What miner? Thanks

anyone try out the new 9GBs memory 1060's yet?

they are garbage. use search on forum.

[muratizm]

Anybody tested claymore 9.7 vs ethminer nvidia optimized version (0.11.rc2) ?

[muratizm]

when you test megahash in ethminer 0.11 (or 0.11.rc1/rc2) make sure you use --farm-recheck 2000 in bat file.
otherwise speed will be hard to calculate (default value is 200 ms, which whill give you hashrate 5 times per second!)

mind sharing your setup/config?

Haven't checked all of them but I bought 5 together, then 2 separate, and 1 separate.

The ones I did check were Samsung memory though.

Power Limit @ 65%.
Mem Clock + 900
Core Clock + 200

nVIDIA optimized ethminer.

By any chance did you try Claymore v9.7? if yes, could you share your hash rate ?

23.7 mhs gigabyte gtx 1060 6gb micron pl 80% core -200 mem +700

looking good for micron.
which miner?

claymore 9.7

1060 3g hyrix, 80% TDP, core -200, men+600,19.5mh/s, so bad. claymore 9.7
if i set mem +650,it crashs.

^ Hynix memory sucks for mining

Try increasing the core (may be 0). I too encountered crashes while I reduced core to -200.

Hello.

Anyone have some stable MSI GTX 1060 6gb ARMOR overclock settings and what hash rate do you get on coins that you mine?

[thesavoyard]

Hello.

Anyone have some stable MSI GTX 1060 6gb ARMOR overclock settings and what hash rate do you get on coins that you mine?

Someone posted a chart of different combos of mem and core OC, the best performance that was stable was +200 core and +600 memory. It's stable on mine but I don't have an MSI, I have an ASIS dual series OC 3gb. I get almost as many sols as a 6gb at those settings, give it a shot.

using claymore this happen

using ethminer 1060 mod will give u more speed

mine is 65% tdp
+100 core +880 memory getting 25mh on ethminer!!!

[stna1981]

You probably have Samsung chips, he has Hynix. Whatever he will do, he will never get the hash rate that you have,,,

Hello everyone,

I'm super new to this mining thing so please bare with my stupidity.

I'm running:
 6x evga 1060 6gb ssc on simple mining os (Have 8 cards total but waiting on Dual PSU Adapter)
Getting 25-25.15 MH/s per card
Claymore-eth-v9.7

Overclocking settings:
Core -100
Memory +1900 (which would be +950 on afterburner)
Power limit 73
Target temp 80
Fan speed 50%

Output is 73w per card and 515w for whole rig
All cards are ranging from 35C-43C

Rig:
Z270-A
Pentium G4400
G.Skill TridentZ 8gb ram
EVGA 1000w GQ

Am I doing this right or is this overclock killing my GPU's? Any advice for this newbie would help. Thank you.

The OC settings you stated is fair enough to run it stable. And if it crashes, it would be because of less power for such OC. So juice it up a bit more and see if that works. However, nobody can know if you can get 25mh/s out of that. you need to play with it and find the acceptable settings yourself.

35-43C? where do you live?

Yeah that's about as good as it gets. How did you get the mobo to recognize more than 5 cards? I had to RMA it.

[minorminer718]

I live in NYC but I have central air running all day so might be why it's staying this cool. I have another 4 card rig of 1070's at my office and it's running about 73C. So far it's been pretty stable. I tried it at +2000 and it would crash each time. I have been running it like this for about 1 day without any crashes.


I did the Bios on the motherboard from a youtube video. Had zero problems running 6 cards. He claims you can run 12 plus but I'm sticking to 8. I replaced one of the M.2 with a pci-e card from amazon to get the extra riser connected.

Here is the video for Z270-A/AR bios mod.
