GTX 1060 3GB
 

Would someone be so kind as to look at the attached and tell me what this issue is. This is on Windows 7 Pro x64.

Hi,

I've never yet seen that on my GTX1060 3GB, or other gpus. Perhaps there's a clue in the event log.

Maybe something at [url]https://www.lifewire.com/43-errors-explained-2619238[/url] would help.
Or at [url]http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3112381/problem-graphics-card-code.html[/url]

Good luck...

I downloaded and installed a BIOS update. No changes. I am afraid I may have something here that I cannot use. :yucky:

I notice that's a fairly recent driver date. Did you just update the driver recently, or allow it to automatically update? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling, or uninstalling and installing an older driver version?

There's a known issues with GTX 1060 and the latest drivers on Windows. I'd downgrade until they fix it.

driver version
 

This one seems to work

397.31 has known problems. They released a hotfix 397.55 which is reported to solve those problems, but I found both of these give problems for gaming. I haven't crunched on them yet. Reverting to the next earlier release seems to be the solution many are going for.

A bug in 397.31. I had some really strange behavior using this one. Just as a test, I went to NVidia's web site and downloaded the [U]oldest[/U] one I could find. In the low 380's if memory serves. The card would function, barely. 102 GHz-d/day running [I]mfaktc[/I]. I have not tried the one [B]kriesel [/B]uses, but will do so.

Thank you all for you comments. :smile:

Now, I know what the problem is, and I am going to have somebody's liver for breakfast. :glare:

I know there are differences between 3GB and 6GB cards as to CUDA cores, but this is obscene. Do you have access to said liver?

Wow, 102 is comparable to an RX550. More normal would be around 400-500 in TF for a GTX1060. Higher Ghzd/day at lower p.

I've seen the same RX550 have more than 2:1 variation in throughput depending on exponent and bit level. (~90-211 Ghzd/day)

1152 vs 1280 shaders. Not 192.

So basicly you got ripped off?
Did you buy it from ebay or some Chineese obscure store?

:chappy: Yarrr... fried liver!

To both your questions: Yes, eBay. This is the first time I have had issues with anything I have gotten from them. Everything, until now, has been a domestic vendor. I bought the HP I have from a domestic in New Mexico. It runs quite well.


When I did a search for, "fake 1060," last night, I got many hits. I am trying to negotiate a return.


Fortunately, this has not been a hard hit for me, but enough. The lesson here is [U]stay[/U] [U]domestic[/U]. [U]:reality-check:
