I Bought a GTX 1660 Super in 2024 - Can it Still Game at 1080p?
Рет қаралды 31,736
Күн бұрынThe 2019 Super refresh of the GTX 1660 was a very popular GPU amongst gamers and streamers who wanted to play games at 1080p. Setting as the 10th most popular GPU in the world, does it still have what it takes to be a decent gaming GPU in 2023?

I bought one recently (ASUS Phoenix OC) for $100. Definitely a great upgrade from a GTX 1050 2GB, expecially the VRAM. I'm not a gamer, so I probably not going to worry about it getting obsolete anytime soon. But I still would like to see it hold up for many years down the road. I'm also interested to see how it performs on other applications other than games such as video editing, 3D rendering, video encoding and decoding, blender, photoshop, etc.

I think of upgrading to a 1080ti, yes it is older, but it is more powerfull and has almost double the vram, the 1080 ti is still a beast, and very cheap nowadays!

It's a bit of a tricky one. I think the main question is: are you happy with your PC's performance? If so, leave it as it is for the time being. If not, depending on the games you play, I would go for the GPU upgrade.

10100 is good enough for 75+ FPS and 1660 supe is a great match. Wait for 2-3 years and you can upgrade the entire platform.

I bought mine, a Gigabyte model as I like Gigabyte for years now, about a week before the release of the 30 series by Nvidia. I couldn't afford to buy the about 25% more expensive at the time RTX 2060 and I knew if I waited more time I wouldn't be able to afford any other either. So, I went for it. On its own at the time it was a very good card. Not as good as the 2060, but still good enough. The only game that couldn't easily handle was Cyberpunk 2077. After about 4 years, as I still have to use it (and my 2015 PC), I consider myself lucky I at least got this one. It's a good card, low power consumption as I like it, and for the most part still relevant today. Besides, I can't afford to buy the more recent unoptimized AAA games (like Starfield or Alan Wake 2), so I don't get to experience very low framerates in games. :)

Amazingly well vast card. Can handle 4K up scale no problem. Racing games do tend to make it swelter at 74 º C. Guess time to clear the dust. Depends on your rig though. If negative or positive. Still the card sounds so happy grinding. Only if your bypassing software with NVIDIA control panel.. but not to worry! Most games will run it to 63ºC. .. well not trying new games. Most likely like all of consumers we are a waiting for a water cooled GPU. Absolutely missed in the video. It is not the FPS its the TEMP. Sorry its not a comment for the purchase of one... your video was good. But had a lot of too much difficulty understanding for an average user.

There is something I don’t understand. Lots of PC gamers are surprised that 30fps on Steam Deck are „totally acceptable“. Millions of Console gamers never complain about 30fps. So. And I do understand that 200+fps may be required for fast action competitive gaming. Got it. But what’s the benefit of having more than 60fps for story-driven games like RDR2? I don’t understand. Help!
