Hi Konrad,

My experience with QE-GPU is that it works only with double precision 
supported GPUs but not single precision.

I am using TitanZ and Intel compiler, it works fast. Here is my ./configure

./configure CC=icc F90=ifort F77=ifort MPIF90=mpiifort --enable-parallel 
--disable-openmp --without-scalapack --enable-cuda --with-gpu-arch=sm_35 
--with-cuda-dir=/usr/local/cuda-6.5 --with-magma --with-phigemm 
--with-pinned-mem LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64/ -lstdc++"

I doubt if GTX 1060 supports DP? If it is SP than it does not work for 
QE-GPU or it may be very slow.
