The GeForce GTX 1060 takes advantage of Pascal 16 nm FinFet architecture, and with 4.4 billion transistors. It has 1,152 shader/stream cores on the 3GB models (6 GB models are available as well).

The GPU empowering the product is called the GP106 GPU, which is Pascal architecture based. It has 1,152 CUDA Cores, while texture filtering is performed by 72 texture units.
