The Zotac GTX 1060 Mini comes in a compact form factor with a basic heatsink. A backplate isn't available either, which helps with pricing, which matters the most in this segment. Dimensions of the card are 17.5 cm x 11.5 cm.

Installation requires two slots in your system.

Monitor Outputs, Display Connectors

Display connectivity options include a DVI port, one HDMI port and three DisplayPorts. Unlike previous NVIDIA cards, the DVI port no longer includes an analog signal, so you'll have to use an active adapter. NVIDIA also updated DisplayPort to be 1.2 certified and 1.3/1.4 ready, which enables support for 4K @ 120 Hz and 5K @ 60 Hz or 8K @ 60 Hz with two cables.

The GPU also comes with an HDMI sound device. It is HDMI 2.0b compatible, which supports HD audio and Blu-ray 3D movies. The GPU video encoding unit has been updated to support HEVC at 10-bit and 12-bit.

Multi-GPU Area

The GeForce GTX 1060 does not support SLI.
