MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X review

We review the new MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X edition. This is a more high-end product in the new mainstream line of the new GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Gaming series products. MSI has already factory tweaked the card for you, making this a very more affordable offer, yet without RTX features.

110 for said graphics card with the same cooler (already checked with my preferred retailer) and I don't want to make the same mistake as with my RX 580 by cheaping out on the cooling.
The price you will pay for either of those cards just spend the extra $30 and get the founders edition RTX2060.

I still can't decide which one to buy: 1) ASUS ROG STRIX OC 2) MSI GAMING X 6G 3) or play AMD's 7nm waiting game?
I've only heard good things about the new MSI cards, but having had 2 in the past (both with coil whine) makes me very cautious?
Don't...
GTX 1660 Ti is only 30-35% faster than your RX 580.
Get RTX 2070 which is 80%/90% faster at HD/4K.
If your game was running at 50 fps, 1660Ti will get you 65fps (meh)
2070 will get you 90fps (YESSS!)
Spending 300 euros for _almost_ similar performance is a no-no

If it helps, this is where the relative performance lies (with current pricing):
RTX 2080 Ti (£1,070, 2 free games)
RTX 2080 (£635, 2 free games)
RTX 2070 (£460, 1 free game)
GTX 1080 Ti
RTX 2060 (£320, 1 free game)
Radeon VII (£700, 3 free games)
GTX 1080
GTX 1070 Ti (£395)
Radeon RX Vega 64 (£370, 3 free games)
Radeon RX Vega 56 (£250, 3 free games)
GTX 1660 Ti (£260)
GTX 1070 (£270)
RX 590 (£235, 3 free games)
GTX 1060 (£195)
RX 580 (£150, 2 free games)
RX 570 (£140, 2 free games)
GTX 1050 Ti (£145)
GTX 1050 (£110)
RX 560 (£120)
There's quite a lot wrong with some of that order by just taking a quick glance at it, so people should not really trust this list you've created. For a start RTX 2060 isn't really anywhere near 1080ti, it's between GTX 1070ti and GTX 1080. Also, 1080ti is above RTX 2070 performance. I think Vega64 is above 1070ti, but less sure on that one. Haven't bothered checking the order of the lower end cards, but quite a bit wrong with that listing there.

Economy doesn't work like this pal. Nvidia's fault for a such tiny difference in lower mid range cards. They could give this trash gpu even cheaper. but now, anything NVidia logo'ed is GOLD.
