The good news is, with the release of the GTX 1660 Ti, the GTX 1660 SUPER 's price is getting more discount. NVIDIA ’s xx60 cards have always been defined by entry-level prices with performance that knocks on the door of mid-range graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Turing graphics card inside the GTX 1660 SUPER, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.
Spec for spec, this GTX 1660 SUPER leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 1060 6GB, by boasting 35.8 % more fps. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 1660 SUPER consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 1060 6GB and it really justifies an upgrade.
