GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q vs Radeon 660M specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q graphics card is better than the Radeon 660M in our tests.

In our comparison, the Radeon 660M has a slightly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the Radeon 660M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Radeon 660M has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q at 60 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q over the Radeon 660M.
