I Recently purchased an Asus ROG Strix GTX 1060..been playing around with overclocking it and so far ive bumped up the gpu by 200 and the mem by a nice 700 increase, gpu voltage left at default..im using latest driver: 373.06.. here are 2 Valley screen shots. 1 with no antialiasing the other with a X8. and 1 Heaven screenshot.heaven 2.jpg

So far im very impressed with the amount of headroom this card has for oveclocking. :)
if any other forum members have overclock stats for this card id be very interested in seeing them. :
Here are the Time Spy and Fire Stike benchmark screenshots. note: these last 2 were left at default settings.

Remember that with Pascal, sometimes less can be more when you get to the higher clocks. GPU boost now has multiple levels of throttling on the core speeds based on temp. As the clocks go higher the obvious side effect is heat,

Having your card run 100% of the time at say +200mhz will give a better score than say pushing it to +300mhz and it throttling on and off. All about the averages rather than the top speed with pascal.

P.S My 1000th post at last!!!! :rock:
 
I've recently purchased a 1060 too (asus dual oc) and I get 4376 in TimeSpy and 11610 in FireStrike without an OC...

the Asus ROG Strix 1060 has an over the top cooling solution, in fact its the same cooling solution for the Asus ROG 1070 and 1080 . results ive found are that temps never go above 62c with fan around 45% ( Benching and Gaming ) and this is leaving the fan speed at default. ill have to snoop around the tinternet to find out at what temps throttling starts. :)
