Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER

The Radeon RX 5700 XT is dramatically faster, around 64% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 5700 XT is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER is better matched to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER starts at $807 AED against $3,089 AED for the Radeon RX 5700 XT. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER offers the better performance-per-dollar (~134% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER still sits about $578 AED above its $229 AED MSRP. The Radeon RX 5700 XT still sits about $2,690 AED above its $399 AED MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER draws just 125W versus 225W for the Radeon RX 5700 XT, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 8GB against 6GB, the Radeon RX 5700 XT has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER's 6GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 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 5700 XT?

Choose the Radeon RX 5700 XT if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon RX 5700 XT better than the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER?

The Radeon RX 5700 XT is dramatically faster, roughly 64% ahead. The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER or the Radeon RX 5700 XT?

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 Radeon RX 5700 XT worth the extra $2,282 AED over the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER?

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

Does the Radeon RX 5700 XT 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.
