GeForce GTX 1060 Launch Imminent + Leaked Specs

GeForce GTX 1060 Launch Imminent + Leaked Specs

More and more rumors on the GeForce GTX 1060 being released are hitting the web, including specifications.  Earlier on a GeForce GTX 1060 already had been photographed on a Hong Kong market. 

The card on the photo seems to be a GeForce GTX 1060 reference-design, the graphics kinda resemble the GeForce GTX 1080/1070 style. That card also seems a bit shorter than usual. It was spotted and bought at this retailer.

Word out on the street (reddit) is that the card sold for roughly 299 USD but who knows, it could be a 249 USD product. However new info arrived on the web, the 1060 is now expected to be launched on the 7th of July, 2016. Actual availability is expected to follow a week later, on 14th July. That's way ahead of schedule as the 1060 was expected to launch later in the Summer of 2016. Here are the rumored specifications of the GeForce GTX 1060 as posted on Benchlife.info, the source for this information.

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060
  • ASIC: GP106-400-A1 and GP106-300-A1
  • 16 nm FinFET process
  • 120W TDP
  • 1280 CUDA cores, spread across 10 streaming multiprocessors
  • 80 TMUs and 48 ROP units
  • 192-bit GDDR5 memory interface
  • 6 GB and 3 GB models

This will be the third desktop graphics card based on NVIDIA's "Pascal" architecture, following the GTX 1080 and the GTX 1070. It should perform at the level or above the competing Radeon RX 480 released this week.

I wonder how this will perform in comparison to the 480, bein in roughly the same price class (200 - 300$).

Looks like Nvidias running scared.

Probably another yawn worthy, over priced, under powered card, just like the 960.

if those specs are correct it looks a bit gimped. that is, if they price the card the way i think theyre going to...quite interesting news regardless.

cant imagine availability is going to be anywhere near robust, even if it performs well. 1080 & 1070 stock is still incredibly low everywhere.

960 was a let down because of how well 970 performed, and AMD got 380 released that crashed 960.

My guess, price would around $249 with performance slight bit faster than 980.
