ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 Mini

NVIDIA leaves no doubt about who has a leading position in the graphics cards field. Following the spectacular success of the high-end GeForce 1080 and 1070 series models, a dream card is coming to the market for gamers, for whom gaming on a resolution of 2560 × 1,440p is more than enough. This is the main purpose of the GeForce GTX 1060.

Key features

• New Pascal architecture with 16nm production process
• Low power consumption - just a 6-pin connector for power
• Ideal for gaming experiences in QHD and Full HD resolution
• Comparable performance with the GeForce GTX 980 generation
• The card uses a reference-clocked core - 1506 / 1708MHz
• Unreferenced versions from ZOTAC in a compact design
• One HDMI and DVI output, three DisplayPort outputs

Power-saving operation

With the16nm production technology and the new Pascal architecture, the manufacturer boasts not only noticeably higher performance but much more efficiency. The expected consumption is therefore only 120W, yet power-comparable GTX 980 required for its operation up to 165W.

Advanced technical parameters

ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 Mini 6GB offers power represented by 1280 CUDA cores, 80 texturing and 48 rendering units. The Pascal GP106 core runs up to a 1708MHz clock speed in Boost Mode. The graphics chip is backed by 6GB of GDDR5 memory with a 192GB/s data bandwidth.

Compact model from ZOTAC

The ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 Mini graphics card uses a non-reference cooler for better heat dissipation and is only 174mm long and is perfect for smaller cases. The supplied Firestorm utility allows you to adjust the parameters, including clock speeds, fan speeds, temperature monitoring, and more.
