Radeon RX 6900 XT vs GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon RX 6900 XT vs GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER

The Radeon RX 6900 XT is dramatically faster, around 264% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6900 XT is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER is better matched to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER currently lists from $313 EUR, $384 EUR less than the Radeon RX 6900 XT at $697 EUR. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 6900 XT wins on performance-per-dollar by about 63%. The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER still sits about $84 EUR above its $229 EUR MSRP. The Radeon RX 6900 XT is trading below its $999 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER is the gentler choice at 125W versus 300W. The Radeon RX 6900 XT is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 300W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU. Its more modern RDNA 2 architecture on a TSMC N7 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

The Radeon RX 6900 XT carries 16GB versus 6GB on the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER. The extra 10GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 6900 XT offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER or Radeon RX 6900 XT?

The Radeon RX 6900 XT is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon RX 6900 XT better than the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER?
