CUDA error - cannot allocate big buffer for DAG. Check readme.txt for possible solutions.
Setting DAG epoch #177
but isn't sure because of Dag file ETH currently 2.3 GB maybe the real data more from 2.3 or approaching 3 GB. and GPU memory, not enough for save dag file. because GPU needs to load it before start mining.

looks pretty clear, dag file size might be too large for the gpu. I mean what did you expect you are using 3gb gpus
I should consider upgarde them to 6gb version is the last option then.
if indeed this happens because 3GB Memory is not due to other problems. certainly sadly.If you want still 1060 3 GB, jump mining to Equihash algorithm such Zcash.
you are wrong at all. My 1060-3 are mining Ether Classic as well now
