GeForce GTX 660 vs GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 660 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 660 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. Despite this, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop has a slightly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 660 at 140 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 RTX 3070 Ti Laptop over the GeForce GTX 660.
