GeForce GTX 1060 6GB vs TITAN X specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the TITAN X beats the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture.

As stated by the manufacturer, the TITAN X has significantly more memory with 12 GiB of memory compared to 6 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB has a significantly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the TITAN X at 250 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the TITAN X over the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB.
