In the lower-end of NVIDIA’s Turing graphics cards we have the GeForce GTX 1660 (non-Ti). This card sits right above the GTX 1650 and seems to be the go-to card for 1080p if you are buying new. With so many GTX 1660’s out there it is hard to know which one to get. Gigabyte actually has four GTX 1660 SKUs, at the top of their GTX 1660 product stack is the GTX 1660 Gaming OC 6G. As you can guess by the product name this card is overclocked. It has a boost clock up to 1860 MHz (Reference Card is 1785 MHz). The card also features Gigabyte’s triple-fan WindForce 3X cooling solution, RGB lighting, and even has a full-cover backplate. Is this the GTX 1660 you should get? Read on as we find out!
