NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

GeForce GTX 1660 vs GeForce GTX 1060 6GB benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1660 beats the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1660 has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1660 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, they both have the same amount of memory at 6 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, both the GeForce GTX 1660 and the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB have an identical TDP. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1660 over the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB.
