MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Gaming X review

We review the new MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Gaming X edition. No-no, you read it right ... the non-Ti version. The new product is more value targeted and sits in NVIDIA's new mainstream line of the GTX 1660 series products. MSI has already factory tweaked the card a notch for you. You get all the good stuff, yet without RTX features and Tensor cores.

590 performance as expected. Not the best but not the worst. Thing is that 580/590 are a two year old hardware.

Aside from the couple of more Nvidia optimised dx11 titles where it showed remarkable performance against AMD, it's indeed as direct an answer to 590 as one could imagine. Over here in my parts these seem slightly less expensive than 590 (like 20 euros), though, which would naturally attract a whole lot of people.

Hm, not really strong but it is gaming equal or better than furyX/590/980TI.
It loses to 1060 in firestrike. If it doesn't cost less than 220€ then it's a fail.

FS no longer is a good idication for gaming performance. time spy is a lot more modern and uses modern techniques.

Thanks! as I suspected. pretty much an RX 590 performance for 220$ at 110W.
not a massive leap but it will sell well because it's facing a 3 years old competition at this point.
