27 MH/s CORE UNDERCLOCK GTX 1060-6GB

[Redblazed]

I was always told its never beneficial to underclock the core frequency but THAT IS NOT CORRECT. I have been running an ASUS GTX 1060 DUAL 6GB card and have been getting a reported hashrate steadily around 23.7-24.3 MH/s but what is really interesting is at these settings I am getting the reported rate I mentioned before and can confirm after 24+ hours of burn in time I am getting an effective hashrate of 28-29 MH/s. I think anyone who is running GTX 1060 6GB cards try using the same seeings as I am in the attached screen cap. And donations are always accepted, I'm guessing there will be some happy people to squeeze an additional ~3-4 MH/s to each card.

The settings I am using are done with latest drivers and clocks and power with afterburner:
TDP: 65%
CORE CLOCK: -115 MHz (THE CORE CLOCK IS UNDER CLOCKED, WHOLE POINT OF POST)
MEMORY CLOCK: +850 MHz

Getting 28 MH/s Effective hashrate using Claymore Dual miner in ETH ONLY mode (-mode1) according to Ethermine's pool data and have been receiving significantly more accepted shares, all pulling under 90 W per card. Getting 29 MH/s @ >90W makes these cards a potential goldmine.

Please report your results using these settings and post your results to this thread.

Donation addr in sig if anyone feels obliged after realizing your squeezing additional 4 MH out of each card.
Cheers

I wasn't aware that was a popular belief.

Of course, I'm still skeptical that you can consistently hit 29 MH/s with such cards, especially without reliance on the silicon lottery.
27, as mentioned in the title, seems more feasible.

He just had a good string of luck finding shares and is saying his 6hr average is 29mh/s.  Nothing to see here.

That's really amazing! My GTX 1060 - 6G never go above 24Mh/s. Even I tried many tests with P106-100, it only could reach 26Mh/s.

Wow... I never seen such result!!
Can you post some proof because 1060 can't do more than 24.5/25 mh with ethash
