Palit GeForce GTX 1060 Super Jetstream Review - Product Showcase

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 reference cards (Founders editions) have a base clock frequency of 1,506 MHz with it's boost to 1,708 MHz, this card is set at 1620 / 1848 MHz.

The card has a 120 Watt TDP, 75 Watts is delivered though the PCIe slot, then 75 Watts through the single 6-pin PEG (PCI Express graphics) power connector. If you look at the lower left (it's a bit hard to spot) you can see that single 6-pin connector).
