AIDA64 Adds Support for NVIDIA TU116 GPU (GeForce GTX 1660)

AIDA64 Adds Support for NVIDIA TU116 GPU (GeForce GTX 1660)

It's clear that NVIDIA is preparing to release a non-RTX enabled GeForce GTX 1660 / 1660 Ti soon. Next tp the plethora of rumors and leaked info, AIDA just started adding support for a GPU called TU116.

It is suggested there will be two video cards based on the chip, namely the GTX 1660 and the 1660 Ti. The Ti variant will very likely get GDDR6 graphics memory, the non-Ti would get GDDR5 graphics memory as well as a 6GB and 3GB configuration. The 1660 series would not have raytracing cores. It remains unknown if tensor cores are present. We expect the cards to occupy the 200 to 300 USD price domain. AIDA release notes now show the following.

 

Nvidia GeForce 
GTX 1060 GTX 1660 GTX 1660 Ti RTX 2060
GPU GP106 12nm FF TU116 12nm FF TU116 12nm FF TU106
Shader cores 1280 1280 1536 1920
Memory 6 GB / 3GB GDDR5 6GB / 3GB GDDR5 6GB GDDR6 6GB GDDR6
Memory bus 192-bit 192-bit 192-bit 192-bit

Above the expected configuration of the pending cards, the specs however remain speculation until announced. Thanks Thel Vadam for this spot.

Update: meanwhile at some etailers videocardz spotted, some of the listings for 1660 Ti cards also have surfaced.

Only thing I don't understand, why not name it 2050, because that's clearly what it is, why 1660?

I guess because it doesn't support RTX/DLSS so they didn't want people to get confused.

But they could name it GTX 2050 and GTX 205o Ti.

On the other hand TU116 just fits to be named 1160.

Idk they probably sat in a room with a focus group and asked them "GTX 2050 vs 1660 which makes it clearer that one is a different product group than the other" and the GTX vs RTX confused people. All these types of decisions are driven by marketing research. I personally prefer 2050 myself but Nvidia is going to do what their $500m marketing team is going to tell them so they can justify that expense.

The geek side of me is really interested in seeing the review of the GTX 1160. With nearly identical specs to the 1060, it will be great for comparing the performance of the two architectures.
