The GeForce GTX 1060 takes advantage of Pascal 16 nm FinFet architecture, and with 4.4 billion transistors, 1,280 shader/stream cores, and 6 GB (later in the year we do expect to see some value 3 GB models as well) of GDDR5, it’s a rather nice product and decent succesor to the GeForce GTX 970 and competing with the AMD Radeon RX 480.

The GPU empowering the product is called the GP106 GPU, which is Pascal architecture based. It has a nice 1,280 CUDA Cores, while texture filtering is performed by 80 texture units.

The cards have a 120 Watt TDP, 75 Watts is delivered though the PCIe slot, then 150 Watts through the single 8-pin PEG (PCI Express graphics) power connector. If you look at the lower right (it's a bit hard to spot) you can see the single 8-pin connector, so that's 150 Watts + 75 Watts = 225 Watts available.
