Pros & cons summary

Performance score	19.70	19.60
Recency	15 August 2016	30 August 2015
Maximum RAM amount	6 GB	8 GB
Chip lithography	16 nm	28 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	80 Watt	300 Watt

GTX 1060 Mobile has a 0.5% higher aggregate performance score, an age advantage of 11 months, a 75% more advanced lithography process, and 275% lower power consumption.

Tesla M60, on the other hand, has a 33.3% higher maximum VRAM amount.

Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile and Tesla M60.

Be aware that GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile is a notebook card while Tesla M60 is a workstation one.
