Low hashrate on gtx 1060

[mariogamer9]

Hi, i just started ethereum mining with a gtx 1060 and am only getting 8.3mh/s, I looked it up and other people get around 20 mh/s, why is mine performing so poorly?

Try using a different mining program. Which one are you using? I used Claymore's Dual Miner and got good results.

I think I figured out the problem, but i'll need to verify it, from what I have read it seems that cards that are 3gb and below get low hash rates mining ethereum but i could be wrong

It largely depends on the car. Zotac Mini has a lower hashrate than EVGA single-fan. What model do you have? 8MH/s seems too low for any 1060.
