GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop
The GeForce GTX 1070 and GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop post nearly the same score in our performance index, so neither holds a meaningful raw-speed advantage. Both are best suited to entry-level 1080p gaming. The GeForce GTX 1070 packs 1,920 CUDA cores versus 1,536 on the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1070 currently lists from $220 CAD, $1,057 CAD less than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop at $1,277 CAD. The GeForce GTX 1070 is trading below its $379 CAD MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
At 80W against 150W, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX 1070 carries 8GB versus 6GB on the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop. The extra 2GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers. The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop's memory is also faster — 288 GB/s versus 256 GB/s (192-bit vs 256-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop is roughly 3 years newer than the GeForce GTX 1070 (Turing vs Pascal), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1070 or GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop?
The GeForce GTX 1070 is the faster card. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.
