GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1660: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER vs GeForce GTX 1660
The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 80% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1660. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce GTX 1660 is better matched to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER packs 2,560 CUDA cores versus 1,408 on the GeForce GTX 1660.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce GTX 1660 starts at $775 AED against $3,340 AED for the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1660 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~139% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 1660 still sits about $556 AED above its $219 AED MSRP. The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER still sits about $2,841 AED above its $499 AED MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce GTX 1660 pulls less power (120W vs 215W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 8GB against 6GB, the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce GTX 1660's 6GB can fall short. The GeForce RTX 2070 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 2070 SUPER?
Choose the GeForce RTX 2070 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.
