I know, I know, a 1060 3GB isn't going to produce much in mining. That's not the question here. I want to know if there's some reason it won't work on Nicehash anymore. I have one I'm not using, and thought I'd put it on Nicehash again just to make a few Satoshis, but it constantly fails the benchmark tests, so I can't mine with it. Drivers aren't an issue, these 1060s I have used to work fine, but a year or so later and I can't get it mining.
And if a 1060 3GB is now unusable on Nicehash, what sort of GPU do I need? A 3060? And how much RAM is the minimum these days?

1060 3GB listed here - only works on NHM and NHOS, not the Quick miner...pretty sure most algos need 4GB though...so most benchmarks will fail, make sure you manuayly "tick" all benchmarks

Just trying to point him in the right direction, OP is specifically asking about his card and NH.
Nowadays you need to have more knowledge and capabilities in mining if you want to earn money rather than passive income of a few cents a day from one old video card.
