Measured evidence
Market and rendering evidence
Historical launch pricing for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 preserves source terms such as USD, MSRP and SEP. It is shown separately from one workload-specific community benchmark.
Specifications for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 were checked against the linked source material. Last verified .
The record launch date is original 6 GB availability. The 3 GB, 9 Gbps 6 GB, GDDR5X 6 GB and 5 GB variants have separate evidence states. Clocks, power and detailed physical fields are intentionally unpopulated because the schema cannot scope them to mixed reference and partner configurations. The 10 GHz GDDR5X subvariant is documented without a calculated bandwidth. The MSI image is representative.
Separate 3 GB and 6 GB columns were preserved. Shared scalar clock and power groups are not proposed because later partner variants are also represented.
This board publishes 1280 CUDA cores, 6 GB GDDR5X, a 192-bit bus and 192 GB/s bandwidth. Its board clocks, dimensions, power connector and outputs are not generalized.
This separate partner SKU publishes 1280 CUDA cores, 6 GB GDDR5X, a 192-bit bus and a 10 GHz memory clock but no raw bandwidth. The clock is retained in notes because the catalog has no per-configuration memory-rate field.
Fallback used only for 216 GB/s on the 9 Gbps 6 GB board. Direct automated access was blocked by robots and the value was visible in indexed article text.
Fallback used only for the cited Colorful board's 1280 cores, GDDR5 type, 160-bit bus and 160.2 GB/s bandwidth. Direct automated access was blocked by robots and the values were visible in indexed database text.
