GeForce GTX 1660 vs GeForce GTX TITAN X: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1660 vs GeForce GTX TITAN X
The GeForce GTX 1660 is noticeably faster, around 11% ahead of the GeForce GTX TITAN X. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1660 currently lists from $806 SEK, $13,803 SEK less than the GeForce GTX TITAN X at $14,609 SEK. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce GTX 1660 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 1915%. The GeForce GTX 1660 still sits about $587 SEK above its $219 SEK MSRP. The GeForce GTX TITAN X still sits about $13,610 SEK above its $999 SEK MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 120W against 250W, the GeForce GTX 1660 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 TITAN X carries 12GB versus 6GB on the GeForce GTX 1660. The extra 6GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers. The GeForce GTX TITAN X's memory is also faster — 337 GB/s versus 192 GB/s (384-bit vs 192-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce GTX 1660 is roughly 4 years newer than the GeForce GTX TITAN X (Turing vs Maxwell), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1660 or GeForce GTX TITAN X?
The GeForce GTX 1660 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 TITAN X if you find it at a steep discount.
