Following the release of the supercharged GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, which delivers comparable performance to a GeForce GTX 1070, we’ve now launched the GeForce GTX 1660.

Starting at $219, the GTX 1660 features 6GB of GDDR5 VRAM, 1408 CUDA Cores, and a boost clock of almost 1.8 GHz. On average, it’s 35% faster than the GTX 1060 3GB at 1080p, and compared to the Maxwell-architecture GTX 960, it’s 130% faster.
