Recently I posted about my new GTX1060 card, but didn't get any real response.
I have an ASUS GTX-1060-O6GB card, that when I run programs like HWINFO64, or UNIGINE, FURMARK etc... they all detect the card as being the 6GB model so didn't get the wrong one, but when I see memory on it, it's 4GB.
UNIGINE for example
Platform:Windows 7 (build 7601, Service Pack 1) 64bit
CPU model:Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1231 v3 @ 3.40GHz (3392MHz) x4
GPU model:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 21.21.13.7619 (4095MB) x1
I tried GPU-Z as per the only response I received, but says 6GB on one side, the other side says 165MB.
ASUS Tech said to upgrade BIOS and update video drivers. After that, it took weeks and a few emails to get a response, which was to get an RMA. No further testing...???
Basically, card works fine but, I don't know if it can/should work better, I have no way to compare, no extra PC's to swap cards with, no other GTX1060's to see if they read the same.
Is there a way to test the cards full 6GB of memory, like MEMTEST86 but for GPU's? I know it's usually mentioned to use GPU-Z but again, left side shows 6GB, but so far most apps recognize it's a 6GB card, but usually show 4GB somewhere else. :S
