Zotac prepares a gtx 1060 mini with 3gb gddr5

Despite the fact that Nvidia announced the GTX 1060 with a single 6GB model at a price of $ 250 for the reference option, the manufacturer ZOTAC plans to launch two customized mini-ITX models of the GTX 1060, one with 6GB of GDDR5 memory and another with 3GB GDDR5. The 3GB memory option appears to be sufficient for graphics that are intended to meet the demands of mid-range gamers who are not planning to play at resolutions higher than 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixels).

ZOTAC GTX 1060 Mini in 6GB and 3GB GDDR5 models

The Mini version of the GTX 1060 is smaller than the one offered by Nvidia in its reference model and has a single fan that covers more than half of the surface of this graphics card, feeding on a single 6-pin connector (such as in the reference model). As it has been revealed, the ZOTAC GTX 1060 Mini is going to be a fairly conservative option and will not come with a factory OC, betting on the normal frequencies of 1506 MHz base and 1708 MHz in Turbo mode.

A GTX 1060 in a mini-ITX version will arrive in August

The surprise of the 3GB model could make this ZOTAC the cheapest option among all the GTX 1060 models, an option that would only arrive in August. Although the price has not officially transpired, it is believed that the 3GB ZOTAC GTX 1060 Mini would cost about $ 220 and that Nvidia would complete its launch strategy with a GTX 1050 also during August and that it would cost about $ 180, although here we already entered the dangerous terrain of speculation, luckily it would not be long to find out.
