Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Super OC 6G Graphics Card, 2X Windforce Fans, 6GB 192-bit GDDR6, Video Card

Bought this for a new build during the pandemic down time. It does to job well and posers 2 monitors with no strain. Now 4 years later may upgrade and put this in a build for my nephew.

Wish my puter would have accepted it but it didn't work. Great price is all I can say.

Wanted an upgrade for my aging GTX 780 card. For what I was looking for (GDDR6 card from Nvidia for 1080p gaming) this seemed to be the best bang for the buck.PROS:Runs cool and quiet. Does not draw as much power as my old card. Only uses one 8 pin power connector.Handles everything I have thrown at it running at 1080p on high to ultra settings.Decent size - is actually a somewhat compact 2 slot card and nothing more, does not try to take up a 3rd slot like some other cards do. Does not block or cover any ports or connections on ASRock B450m Steel Legend.Nice backplate even if it's not metal.CONS:AORUS Software for overclocking and monitoring the card is just meh. Downloaded it from Gigabyte website and had to install, uninstall, and reinstall it twice to get it to actually work. Now that I have it working I just don't find it very user friendly or intuitive at all. Thankfully I don't plan on overclocking it.Backplate is not metal.SUMMARY: I love this card. Well made and runs like a champ right out of the box. Could have spent about 100 bucks more for ray tracing and at some point I probably will. Hopefully after the RTX 3000 series cards are released more games will support ray tracing, and prices will come down a bit. While I bought this as something to hold me over until then, I think I will be using it for quite a while.

The only things I could really complain about with this card are the plastic backplate and relatively limited lighting.I'm the kind of person who still uses closed cases in 2019, though, so neither of those are problems for me.Otherwise-- the cooler is more than capable of keeping the card cool without killing your eardrums, the power limit is high enough that you won't power-throttle even if you OC, and the memory (on mine) supports a pretty decent 500Mhz overclock. In a fairly stuffy case cooled by with 3 140MM case fans running at ~750RPM, the card stays below 75C and runs at a very consistent 1920Mhz.
