ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6GB GDDR6 192-bit Gaming Graphics Card, Super Compact, ZT-T16620F-10L

PROS:* Single slot bracket* Clears tall capacitors on some motherboards* Low enough watts to not need aux power* Decent enough for serious gaming* Budget pricing* 4GB Texture RAMCONS:* Not as fast as 1080 (duhhh)* Not low-profile* The extra 2GB of Texture RAM adds 30% to the card price.This is the best single-bracket card right now. I have 2 of these, plus one 2GB card. All of the systems are quad-core 2.9GHz and with this card, GTA, Overwatch, etc are cranked up to eleven. These are GTX 1080 chips that were not stable at the higher clock speeds, so they underclock them. Same silicon, same performance, cooler temps, lower wattage. Same as all the chip makers do for their different grades of silicon.I've had no problems with these running full throttle, though I'm sure, somewhere, someone needs the faster speeds of a 1080, or a dual-SLI rig with three compute cards added, or whatever. But, for budget gaming, this is great. Laugh if you want, but we run these in Dell Optiplex 755 systems with Q9550 chips, 8GB RAM, and SATA SSD (dual *x100, or single EVO). These make serious budget gaming rigs, topping out around 500 smackeroos in total to build up including LDC, Keyboard, Mouse, UPS, etc. Check Passmark, and you'll see. Not top of the line, but right in the sweet spot that plays all the things.If you need a low-profile card, the GTX 750 Ti from MSI is similar price/performance, but older vintage, though the 4GB version of those are really hard to find..

Absolute beast, have been using it for 7+ years and it has some limitations but for the price is just so worth it.

My goal was being able to play the newer games on my Dell, more specifically, FC4. I had bought the RX 570 which did a great job, but for some reason, it was extremely noisy. It made a loud whirring sound every time I played the game. The other games I've played, Fallout 3 and 4, Crysis, the card didn't make those horrible sounds. Realizing the cost of gpu's are rapidly escalating, I checked out the GTX 1660 Super. I checked it with games-debate and it was superior to the RX 570. The frame rates are incredible! Also, a BIG plus was the small size of the card. I already had an 8 pin adapter to plug it in and it installed super easy and ran like a dream. The temperature of the card runs within the norm and has made an incredible difference in game play. I highly, VERY highly recommend this card! It's a good price for the card and it delivers exceptional performance if you're unable to get the higher end gpu's. It's worth the price!

I had a new computer ordered. I asked about adding a video card. They wanted almost what I paid for this card for an older card, previous memory grade and less ram. With this card and paying just $15 more I got the latest DDR6 plus 6GB of ram. Downloaded the NVidia driver software with no problem and looks good. Using new computer since September 25. Installed this video card before hooking it all up. Loaded the drivers after downloaded NVidia drivers. No problems at all. I had what I thought was CPU Fan noise. It would go away and come back. Quiet for almost all day and start getting noisy. I finally laid the computer on its side while running. It was making a lot of noise. To my surprise there was a wire between the power supply and video card that was barely touching one of the fans. I tucked it away where it would NOT come back out. Just as quiet now as can be. Should have seen that first thing but didn't.

Works very well, easy install

Nice GPU but not enough VRAM and won't process the newer AI software like Lightroom Classic or Photoshop Beta

I am using a Ryzen 5 1600 paired with a 660ti so this upgrade for me was very substantial and really the cheapest way to break into ultra settings with 60+ FPS (usually above 75fps even in modern games like borderlands 3) which is perfect since I have a 1080p monitor with a 75hz refresh rate. Anything stronger than this card would yield better results but, would probably be bottlnecked past a rtx 2060 or 2060s which is the next price bracket above this card. So this really works well with the 2016 released Ryzen 5 I’m using. I think at the $249 I paid in about June of 2020 was very fair and I have been very happy with it overall. If you have more money get an RTX 2060s but at $250 or slightly under this is a great option. This card is small so it’ll fit in to many cases, not quite a low profile but smaller than some single fan designs I’ve seen. For its size it also weighs more than I’d expect it to eluding to a nice heat sink. Overall the thermals are not bad and I have overclocked it utilizing the OC feature on MSI afterburner and now my clock speed is around 1700 and boosts up a little past 2000 which is actually pretty great for just using the stock cooler. It isn’t very loud and I do have an open case design so I would be able to quickly tell. I like that the card is simple because some look obnoxious but, I would have liked even just a simple clean backplate especially since I’ve seen cheaper 1650 cards with backplates for $100 less than this card.

I was able to push Fortnite DirectX11 on max settings with solid 60fps. This works for Rainbow 6 Siege, Marvel Rivals, Doom, and literally everything I want to play. Great for editing too.
