ASUS Says GTX 1660 “Super” Cards are Coming

It looks like NVIDIA will be bringing their “Super” branding over to their GTX 16XX series of graphics cards. ASUS has confirmed they will be shipping at least three different models of GTX 1660 “Super” cards, which include the Dual Evo, Phoenix, and TUF3.

So what is going to make the GTX 1660 “Super” so super? I mean there really is not much wiggle room between the GTX 1660 and GTX 1660 Ti right now. According to one report the GTX 1660 “Super” will feature the same TU116-300 GPU as the normal GTX 1660, but the memory configuration will be different. The normal GTX 1660 features 6GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 8 Gbps, but the “Super” version would feature GDDR6 memory clocked at 14 Gbps, which is actually even faster than the GTX 1660 Ti. So that likely means we’ll see a GTX 1660 Ti Super?

We also have to mention the rumors we reported on about the GTX 1650 Ti coming out on October 22nd. It really seems like NVIDIA is working to upgrade their current budget lineup in anticipation of AMD releasing their budget offerings.
