interesting that people are getting 25 MH out of a 1060, i managed barely 20, looks like i have to play a round a bit more with that.

Ok... My actual "mini domestic rig" with Claymore 10 run on Windows 10 64 - Latest Afterburner

GPU0 - MSI GTX1060 Gaming X 6GB (Micron)

Power: 85%
Temp Lim: 75°
Clock: -75
Memory: +560
Fan: auto

Mine 22.9 MH/s @68° -Seems to be stable


GPU1 - Gigabyte GTX1060 WF OC 3GB (Samsung)

Power: 66%
Temp Lim: 74°
Clock: +100
Memory: +800
Fan: 55%

Mine 24.0 MH/s @74° - Stable

I've try many configuration/setup for the MSI, but in some situation crash or mining fails

Waiting for comments. Thank you

Hi Guys...

I'm testing my new MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X 6GB, with Micron memory

First 2 test fails (crash!) and now I'm search for proper setup... Working with latest Nvidia driver 385.41 and Claymore 10 on Windows 10 64 bit

Actually: power 66%, Core +16, Memory +675... Seems stable with temp 60° and Fans in autospin (30%)... Mining at 19.5.. very cheap...

Any help for you with same GPU?

Now I'm try to push little bit more and run for a couple of hours...

Hi,
your power is too slow... try incrementally in the range of 80-85%.
You should reach 22-24...

Yes.... And no.


Coreclock of memory clock depend only of which cryptocurrencies you want to mine.

Usually, 1060 are the best to run power underclock, memory fully underclock, and core clock nicely overclocked.

What is the algorithm you are mining to ?



I'm using Claymore 10 with standard setup... so I don't know how it mine in terms of algorithm



Coreclock N Memory clock * Sry, typo *

Claymore is a good mining prog.

There are a lot of strategies out there... You can go to whattomine.com and adapt your mining habit to get the most out of your daily word... You can mine a coin that you think into longterm can worth the shot...

Some coins algorithm need your core clock, some other need your memory clock, thats why most of the 480-580 gpu miners aim for dual mining that enable either core clock ( eth ) and memory clock ( sia-dcr-pasc-etc ).

The 1060 is mostly used cause of their great low electricity consomption vs mining profits, but less toward dual mining.

--------------

Drunk talk, need you to continue the conv Tongue

Thank you... I'm testing and testing... I've good results with my Gigabyte GTX 1060 WFOC 3gb (Samsung) than the new MSI 6GB (Micron)... Should be because memory brand...
I'm thinking to bring it back and go with a new Gigabyte GTX 6GB... but not sure if it will come with Samsung on board...

I have bought 4 other gpu in the meantime.

On the box it seems its 9 ghz of memory instead of 6 ghz.

I've received all the necessary to build my other rig, except the case.

I'll share my results in the next days, once I receive the case.

The card is quite new. 1060 ( Available since a week only )

--------------

I'll probably try one for fun in my computer if I'm too curious in the meantime.

Is possible to OC them in command line via SSH? (Ubuntu/latest drivers)

Yes you can use nvidia-smi http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/DCGM/docs/nvidia-smi-367.38.pdf

There's probably some good good examples in the NVOC linux mining os https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/os-nvoc-easy-to-use-linux-nvidia-mining-1854250

I have a

ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 AMP!, ZT-P10600B-10M, 6GB GDDR5 with Micron memory ..

running @ 24 MH eth mining before i could only get it to 22 MH till i started reading this post...

it's been running now for 29 mins stable set @

PL 76 %
core clock +100
memory clock + 850

after burner shows the

voltage running @ 743 mV

temps stay at a nice 49 C with fans set to auto ..

Power consumption according to afterburner  is 75 to 80 %...

Driver version : 385.41

Guys, I need some help. I already had 2 MSI 1060 6GB Aero and they both mine at about 19-20Mh/s at stock settings. Today I bought another 1060 6GB but this time I got a Zotac 1060 Mini 6GB. I thought the hashrate would be about the same but the Zotac is mining at 15-16MH/s at stock settings. Is this difference normal? I thought all 1060s, despite brand, would mine at about the same rate.

EDIT: ok so I did some investigating (like reading this thread lol) and realized it has to do with the memory brand. My Zotac has Hynix memory and that's the problem (my other 2 1060s which are MSI have Micron memory).
I'm gonna try to trade this one for another MSI Aero but if I can't, am I screwed? Even if I OC the Zotac all I get is 18MH/s, while with the MSI Aeros, I get over 23Mh/s with +700 Mhz on the memory Sad

EDIT 2: I was thinking of this one to switch it for (assuming the store will let me): https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1060WF2OC-6GD#kf
Is there a way to make sure these don't have Hynix memory before switching? I also have a couple Gigabyte 1070s (this specific model: https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N1070IXOC-8GD#kf) and these are Micron so maybe the 1060 is also Micron?

On my rigs there are 8 1060 cards installed. getting Total of 185 MH ETH mining.
For monero i get around 4300k thats all i get from trying different settings.


8x 1060 and you get 4300k in cryptonight algorithm is pretty awesome. What is your OC settings?

Guys I've just started loading all the 1060 related data on my blog; please have a look and any suggestions are welcome Smiley

http://krypto-mining.blogspot.co.uk/

I will keep up to date as much as possible; I would love to get more data and feedback so that it can help more people.

BTW can you share your miner details with OC settings too regarding cryptonight mining.

Thanks.

Hello guys.. Im new in this hobby and i have this mining  pc:

Asrock H81pro btc
6x gtx 1060 6gb
4gb ram
intel celeron 2.8GHz
1x ssd 60gb
corsair HX1200i
Windows 10 Home

i run the ethminer 0.12.0 and my problem is when i run for 3-4 hours one of gpu crash and run only 5 gpus. Or crash all pc and i cant do it nothing. Only to close from power and i restart again.. msi after burner defualt settings.. Only power at 75%...  i have change many of settings from msi but nothing..
Are you not overclocking? Try running on stock standard and also make sure the cards don't overheat

i have ruuning on stock standard and crash again. degrees of my cards 66C-71C..

change the riser of the card that crashes alone.

After some tests:
Gigabyte GTX1060 Windforce OC 3Gb (Samsung) - Claymore 10 - MSI Afterburner
Power: 65%; Core + 100; Memory +800; Fan 55% --> Stable from 23.4 MH/s up to 24.3 MH/s. Temp 67°

Using MSI Afterburner instead of Gigabyte Extreme, there is a little increase of about 0.6 MH/s

Thanks for sharing this. I'd been told ETH was memory bound so don't use a core OC.

I'd tried my Gigabyte 1060 ITX 3g (samsung) cards at 65% power with memory +800 but that gave ~16-18MH/s so I had the power up at 75% to get ~23MH/s.

Seeing your results I dropped to 65% power and added in+100 core oc and boom 24.7Mh/s across the board – thanks!

 Grin Happy for this...

In new few days hope to receive my new MSI GTX1060 Gaming X 6GB... Hope with Samsung mem... and hope to find a proper setup to maximize the mining efficiency...
