Thanks for the info. Looks like I waited for nothing. Just ordered my new GTX 1060...

Also found this on phoronix:
QuoteFor my GTX 1060 testing I was using the 367.27 driver that's been available for a few weeks. The only driver issue encountered is that the GTX 1060 isn't formally recognized, but NVIDIA is said to be releasing a new driver today that will add the formal product string for the GeForce GTX 1060.

You're welcome :)

I haven't had any issues with it as far as I can tell and it's possible that I saw that Phoronix article before I purchased the card!

Quoting: libgradevI've got a 1060GTX - they run fine. The driver required for it was added in an update months back...
What driver version do you have? Current SteamOS Nvidia drivers are at version 367.27.
According to Nvidia documentation this version does not support the Gtx 1060.

You're officially correct! I had it in my mind they had done a small driver bump SteamOS update...

It, however, runs fine:

Quoting: operaGreat! I was waiting desperately for updated graphics driver. Now I can finally upgrade my SteamMachine graphics card to a Nvidia Gtx 1060. Hope it doesn't take too long until these updates get out of beta.
