Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1660: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce GTX 1660
The Radeon RX 5700 is dramatically faster, around 50% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1660. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 5700 is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1660 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1660 currently lists from $230 EUR, $196 EUR less than the Radeon RX 5700 at $426 EUR. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1660 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~23% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $77 EUR above its $349 EUR MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 120W against 180W, the GeForce GTX 1660 is both the lower-power and the more efficient card, making it the easier build to cool and power.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The Radeon RX 5700 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.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1660 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 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 or Radeon RX 5700?
Choose the Radeon RX 5700 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.
