GeForce GTX 1660 vs RTX A1000 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1660 GPU is faster than the RTX A1000 Laptop in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1660 has a significantly 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 significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the RTX A1000 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 60 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1660 at 120 W. 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 RTX A1000 Laptop.
