Two GeForce GTX 1060 mining cards get tested

Posted on Wednesday, June 28 2017 @ 12:24 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

So there are no reviews of AMD's Radeon Vega Frontier Edition yet but we did come across a video that shows off the new NVIDIA P106-100 based mining cards from MSI and Galaxy. Some benchmarks were run using Ethereum and Zcash but overall there doesn't appear to be much difference versus the regular GeForce GTX 1060.

Depending on the availability, regular GTX 1060 cards seem a better alternative than these special mining editions as they will have a much higher resale value and a longer warranty.

We are looking at ~20 MH/s at stock and 24 MH/s in Ethereum with overclocking. So similar to GTX 1060 if not the same.
