GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mega Benchmark: Overall little has changed... the GTX 1660 Ti is only 9% more expensive than the RX 580 per frame, but 12% cheaper than the RX 590 and 22% cheaper than Vega 56, at the more typical $400 asking price. Then compared to the RTX 2060, the cost per frame of the 1660 Ti is improved by 7%, so a solid result for the new GTX graphics card.

With Nvidia not manufacturing a GTX 1660 Ti Founders Edition card, for launch day we have analysed the MSI GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X 6G. The 1660 Ti uses a new GPU from Nvidia, named TU116, and this is definitely most notable for its distinct lack of any Ray...

We feel the new GeForce GTX 1660 Ti series is definitely something the industry needs. Most consumers have put RTX cards on hold due to the sales price of the range, which is very steep. The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti certainly addresses the issue of offering...

MSI pulls another dragon out of its hat with the GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X. It runs icy cool, barely breaking the 50C mark after repeated benchmark runs, and we never did hear it running. The Gaming X provides great 1080p performance at well above 60 FPS and...
