I'm building my first rig with 4xGigabyte Wind force OC 3gb cards in the next week or two. Are people still getting upwards of 21MHs on these with some overclocking?
I'm a little concerned about cooling. They'll be quite close together but I'll have 3 additional 120mm fans to cool it. I should be ok, right?

On Ethereum:
22.5MH/s on the PNY 3GB 1060's
24MH/s on the ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6GB ROG STRIX OC Edition's
22.5MH/s on the PNY 3GB 1060's
24MH/s on the ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6GB ROG STRIX OC Edition's
Looks like good hash. I just wonder that is this result for Oc or not. Also what about power cons.?
Thanks.

DGB-Skein result:
http://i66.tinypic.com/29z4zyb.png
MSI AIB settings: TDP:%70 GPU Clock=+100 Mem=-502 Core Voltage:%0 Temp:70 Fan:Auto
Miner is Alexis78.
Mem clok is all the way down as I read for skein it is OK to lower MEM and OC the GPU as much as it can get but for ZcashOC both GPU and Mem.
ZCash result:
MSI AIB settings: GPU:+100 Mem:+400 TDP:%70 Hash:313-315 Sol/s --PEC shows: 115-118W GPU Wall Reading : 155-156W
Miner is EBWF 3.0.3b
I can increase my hash rate to 322-325 sols with +200 GPU clock %75 TDP and power increases a bit as to 124W on pec stats and 160-162W on wall reading.
So far I prefer giving GPU +100 as I do not know much about Nvidia GPU overclocking but just applying some settings I read mostly on this forum.
Can it handle higher clocks just +200, +250? To be able to give this numbers should I increase TDP or give some core voltage?
Would it worth the increased consumption?
Any comments and ideas are appreciated.
Happy and profitable mining all.

Thanks for the stats! I bought the exact same card, they are arriving in 1 or 2 days. Can't wait. Is your memory Samsung or Micron?
One quick question, I have never heard of DGB-Skein before, until I came to this thread. Is this coin proving to be profitable with the 1060 card?
Thanks!
20.5MH/s while dual mining sia, gigabyte gaming g1 6Gb +175 core +550 memory 98% power limit.
How is the sia return for this?
I managed to get all 10 of my 1060 3gb running at 65W from the wall. Each is hashing about 18.5 oced (+125gpu, +600 memory). Total power draw from the wall is 375w per system (5 cards) which is hashing about 92-93mh/s.

To all of you wondering why you're getting 15 mh/s on ethereum out of the box with your 1060s 3G:
You got unfortunate enough to get gpus with Hynix memory which is very crappy for eth mining, instead of Samsung or Micron.
I got 4 MSI GTX 1060 3G ITX OC just yesterday and was very disappointed to see the Hynix name.
As far is I know there's no way to increase mining rates to Samsung levels, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

Palit Storm X GTX 1060 3GB out of the box all settings at stock making an impressive 18.9 mhash and if I overclock it it goes up to 22 mhash with a 650 boost memory clock. I hope you enjoyed being proven wrong.
Mine has Samsung GDDR5 memory though so that's maybe the reason why it performs better.
I also just purchased 6x ASUS DUAL OC 3gb cards and they were all hynix. stock 15mh/s. OC'd (+500 mem) 18.5 best ill get.
my gigabyte card does 23... fuck asus
which gigabyte you have G1 or windforce ? mine was the windforce 6GB out of the box are 15mh/s driver version 382.53. memory OC to 8554mhz only manage to get 18.6mh/s (hynix memory) .
GPU tem 71c
Does the 3gb limit is only impacting Ether mining (DAG file will soon be >3gb) or are other currencies impacted too? I'm thinking og getting 27 1060 and cant decide between 3gb or 6gb.

"dtearth" from the thread seems to have solved his 1060 cards hashing only 15mh/s out of the box. Not sure what type of memory he had but I hope he answers.
I'm going to try this, but he did so many things that I won't be able to follow to the point, so who knows if I will succeed. Probably one of two things he did there solved the problem, not all of what he did.
Would be cool if someone else can give it a go as well.

He has not the same issue, he had the issue where 1 cars = 3MH/s so his whole rig was around 15.
You are talking about bad memory that make 1 card 15MH/S (and 18 OCed)
Just set up a rig with 5 EVGA 3GB 1060's.
Exact model here: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487263
May be some of the cheapest 1060's currently BUT they do have SAMSUNG memory! I had them at +1000 mhz in afterburner but had some weird stuff going on, backed it off to 800 Mhz so I could call it a night.
Running about 22.5-23 Mhs with 800 mhz memory OC. Not bad at all for the cheapest cards around.
Only issue is the heatsink is SHIT, the SC (superclocked) edition of this card has a much denser heat sink and as a result doesn't get nearly as hot.
I said 89C on one card at one point so I cranked the fans to 100% and put the A/C down to 65 while blasting the cards with vortex fans. Down to 80C max, avg 72c between all cards.
Feel bad for those that got cards with shit VRAM, 18-19 is not good for these cards so do your research before you buy!
My Corsair RMi 1000 is reporting avg 660 watt draw from the wall when the cards are under full load. Not bad for 112.5 mhs.

I read everywhere that the SC version is the same with just different factory clock settings
Chip wise, yes but physically NO.
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/515rh0/psa_dont_buy_the_single_fan_evga_gtx_1060_gaming/
The main thing here is they have samsung memory, which is almost needed for the 3GB cards.
Sorry to ask again but you can confirm me that you are talking about the 1060 GAMING: https://www.topachat.com/pages/detail2_cat_est_micro_puis_rubrique_est_wgfx_pcie_puis_ref_est_in10099769.html
VS the 1060 SC https://www.topachat.com/pages/detail2_cat_est_micro_puis_rubrique_est_wgfx_pcie_puis_ref_est_in10099772.html
And not the
1060 SSC (Has dual fans) https://www.topachat.com/pages/detail2_cat_est_micro_puis_rubrique_est_wgfx_pcie_puis_ref_est_in10102735.html
So the 1060 Gaming is garbage, 1060 SC (same itx size) is OKAY (and has always samsung chips?) and the SSC is good too?
Yes, thats correct, if all you can get is the 1060 gaming ITX then its OK just know that the heatsinks are super low end/garbage. Youll need fans/A/C, I run mine at 100% fan speed and temp wise they are OK but kinda loud.
