Thoughts? It is the logical approach honestly, but I don't expect nvidia actually doing it.

As far as I can tell there never was a 3GB 1060, that was just a rumor. It was always only 6GB

Afaik it was leaked afterwards, but apparently it's more than a "1060 with half the memory". Less cuda cores, disabled sm unit, and the like.
If this is true, my bet is its performance is below what nvidia expected, and probably has trouble keeping up with the 480 and 6gb 1060, so putting it one tier below seems like a logical choice

It's just a 1050, the 3GB was never a 1060

The 3gb 1060 might become the 1050 after all
