GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1660: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1660

The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1660. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1660 is better matched to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER packs 2,176 CUDA cores versus 1,408 on the GeForce GTX 1660.

Price & Value

The GeForce GTX 1660 currently lists from $230 EUR, $282 EUR less than the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER at $512 EUR. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1660 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~48% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still sits about $113 EUR above its $399 EUR MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the GeForce GTX 1660 is the gentler choice at 120W versus 175W. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 175W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER carries 8GB versus 6GB on the GeForce GTX 1660. 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 RTX 2060 SUPER's memory is also faster — 448 GB/s versus 192 GB/s (256-bit vs 192-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.

Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1660 or GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Choose the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 1660 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER better than the GeForce GTX 1660?

The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is dramatically faster, roughly 50% ahead. The GeForce GTX 1660 is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 or the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER worth the extra $282 EUR over the GeForce GTX 1660?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the GeForce GTX 1660 comes out ahead.

Does the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 8GB (vs 6GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
