GTX 1060 upgrading to 1070 performance levels
The value at 135GHz might be interpreted differently—could it be a boost of 1.35GHz instead? Even with liquid nitrogen cooling on the GPU core, the GTX 1060 will only draw up to 225 watts (about 150 watts from the 6+2 pin setup plus 75 watts from the PCIe slot). The 1070 model has more CUDA cores, which is why the OCd 1060 can't match the 1070's performance.

Mikel_4:
the value is +135GHz, but is it actually +135MHz or a boost of 1.35GHz? even with liquid nitrogen on the GPU core, the GTX 1060 can only draw up to 225 watts (about 150 watts from the 6+2 pin setup plus 75 watts from the PCIe slot).
1070 offers more CUDA cores than the 1060, which is why the OCd on the 1060 won’t unlock the full performance of the 1070.
Whoops, you’re right. The core frequency is around +135MHz, not exactly what I thought. It seems the 1070 just can’t reach its intended speeds.
