Remember as well the difference between 3GB/6GB on the 1060s is 9/10 CU as well.

So with the 3GB models you get 9 CU, 6GB gives you 10.
OR 10% loss over the 10CU.

This may not hold true on every model/brand of the 1060, but it's something to watch for.

At one time on this list https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/gpu_list.php the gtx 1060 3GB routinely scored higher than the gtx 1060 6GB. And at the moment, it still scores higher under Linux. I am still not sure why it usually used to score higher under Windows.

But with a higher score (at that time) and a lower cost (on the used market at least) I ended up with a lot of them.

If you do any gaming at all on a gtx 1060 video card, the 6GB definitely comes out on top (at least based on the gaming reviews...).
