just bought a GTX1060 SC 6GB and it comes with micron GDDR5 
its very disappointing... that memory will only overclock to +450 
i have two other GTX1060 
a EVGA GTX1060 SSC 6GB  memory overclock to +750 stable  *SAMSUNG memory
a INNO3D GTX1060 (short card) 6GB  memory overclock to +750 stable  *SAMSUNG memory
 
all new batch comes with MICRON memory now?
 
i saw that the new gtx1050ti still comes with samsung

I have electro sensitivity problem , get headach from EMI radiation. all current cards that use more than 150W are no good for me
I have tried MSI GTX1070 , Gigabyte gtx1070, EVGA GTX1070, the EVGA gtx1070 have the highest EMI radio radiation of all three i have tried.
tried a RX480... they all have higher radiation that i can stand.
 
 GTX1060 of all card i have tried have much lower EMI radiation than the gtx1070s
 
and would like to stick with EVGA because EVGA have an excellent 5 year warranty in Taiwan.
so i would like to know if EVGA have changed all GDDR5 in gtx1060 to MICRON for good. for just a few batch.

in furmark it gives me 4 extra frames in 720p test
not a small difference. almost like a gtx1060 3GB vs 6GB difference

Furmark isn't a very good test since Nvidia has code in their drivers that limits performance to keep their cards from self destructing. Just look at your voltage compared to in game or in Heaven/Valley/3DMark - it's a lot lower, isn't it?

I did not know that they switched to Micron on the GTX 1060 before reading your thread, i was expecting them to start using Samsung again on the GTX 1070 to make it great again, but i did expect them to trash the GTX 1060 with Micron memory, but they seem very stubborn and insistent in infecting all recent Pascal batches with Micron GDDR5 poison!
 
And i was just going to purchase the GTX 1060 to replace my Micron 1070 under the impression that all come with Samsung!
 
Frame Time is the time it takes to generate each and every frame, FPS measures how many frame in total are produced during one second, while Frame time measures the distribution of frame production, so if during that one second frames production is not distributed evenly, the game will feel laggy or stuttery and Frame Time measurement is the tool to detect that.
 
I Just measured FrameTime using AfterBurner with my Micron GTX 1070 and the graph jumps all over the place with some huge spikes, this explains why i am getting such a laggy gameplay experience with the card.
 
If you have AfterBurner go to settings/options then go to the Monitoring tab, select FrameRate and FrameTime in the list of things being monitored, play for a while, say 10 minutes and then check the graphs see if you have a consistent or jumpy Frametime graph and report back or better post a screenshot.

You might want to test that at stock speeds as well. Why? An unstable OC can cause inconsistent results, and I would wager that includes frame times.

Unfortunately this happens at stock settings and explains why sometimes i can not pass FireStrike stress test with Frame inconsistency error.

If it helps someone, I have Micron memory too (GTX 1060 SC 6GB) but it seems to have consitent frame times, between 16 to 20, during 50 to 60 fps. Maybe it's a BIOS issue like I have read it was with the 1070s: forums.evga.com/FindPost/2565105
 
But this thread made me wondering if memory has GPU Boost 3.0 too? Because on games I see it always at 2003mhz (measured with GPU-Z), however, when rendering with a GPU based renderer, it goes down to 1901mhz. (If you are curious, you can test a benchmark GPU rendering downloading this little software for example: www.randomcontrol.com/arionbench )

Thank you for the info, i am glad that at last some bothered to measure FrameTime, that indeed looks like a very consistent graph, mine does not look anything like this, it jumps all over the place ..
