Nvidia Disables SLI On GTX 1060 3GB Cards

As nosotros approach the July 7th launch date for Nvidia's upcoming GTX 1060 we're seeing more and more than information about the card leak. The latest comes from a Polish technology outlet PurePC, who'due south editor revealed that GTX 1060 samples have been sent out to reviewers.

The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 is set to launch on July 7th, giving reviewers approximately 3-4 days to acquit their testing. Which is more than than sufficient only notably significantly shorter than the lead time Nvidia gave reviewers with the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070. Possibly lending some credence to the notion that Nvidia may have pushed the launch ahead to compete with the just released RX 480.

Nvidia GTX 1060 Comes In 6GB & 3GB Configurations - SLI Disabled On The 3GB Version

Additionally, VCZ reports that at that place are two variants of the GTX 1060, the more than affordable of the two won't support SLI. It'southward believed that in a similar fashion to what AMD has done with the RX 480, the GTX 1060 will launch with two memory variations. These volition exist 6GB and 3GB, given the card'southward 192-bit memory interface.  It'south not nevertheless clear whether the two variants of the GTX 1060 volition differ in other ways besides the memory configuration. All the same, it's been reported that the 2 versions don't even share the same driver codenames, different the 4GB & 8GB variants of the RX 480.

Furthermore, it'south said that the likely reason SLI support has been disabled on the 3GB variant is to non touch on sales of the higher end GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 graphics cards. Which hints at the potential functioning of the GTX 1060 coming in at approximately one-half that of the GTX 1080.

This makes sense considering that the GTX 1060 has a similar boost clock speed to the 1080,  exactly half the number of CUDA and 60% of the memory bandwidth. And then nosotros're likely looking at the GTX 1060 delivering roughly ~55% of the GTX 1080's performance. Depending on how taxing a given game is on the memory subsystem we could run into that figure go upwardly or down. Which interestingly is exactly where AMD'south RX 480 currently falls-in compared to the 1080. So we're set upward for an extremely close race here between the 1060 and the 480.

Nvidia GTX 1060 Listed By Korean Retailer

Before we close this off in that location'due south ane additional interesting bit reported by our friends over at videocardz. A Korean retailer appear a new promotion on GTX grand series. The promo includes a free re-create of Overwatch with the buy of select Nvidia GeForce graphics cards. Among those cards is the yet unannounced GTX 1060.
