GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs GeForce GT 730 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GPU is faster than the GeForce GT 730 in gaming.

The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti has a significantly 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 GeForce GTX 1660 Ti also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

As stated by the manufacturer, the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti has significantly more memory with 6 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GT 730 has a significantly lower TDP at 49 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti at 120 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 over the GeForce GT 730.
