I built my first gaming PC with a 1660s and an r5 5600g, and Holly Cow, it performed much better than anything I have ever gamed on. I even overclocked it to 2100mhz on the core clock (and overclocked the cpu as well to 4.65 ghz) and broke the 3dmark timespy all-time highscore for this combination (7008 points if i remember correctly). Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.
You were able to get a 1660 super to 2.1ghz core?? That’s insane
Not sure why people don't just get the gtx 1070 over this card. The used market I've seen them go for $100 and it's better than the 1660 super
@@jponz85 most likely driver support, the gtx 1660 will be supported for longer.
@Dragoon867 sure driver support will be longer for the 1660 but it's not like nvidia is not going to give up on the 10 series card anytime soon when even the 9 series are getting updates lol
@@jponz85 true lmao
Just did a budget build a few months ago with 1660 super and it's been performing very well at 1080p , getting 120fps or more on average
Man.. takes me back. I got a EVGA 1660 Ti XC back when they first came out for $225 shipped. Crazy how prices have fallen now and people can get their hands on the 1660 experience now.
I bought my 1660 Ti XC Ultra for $289 back in 2019, now 3 years later, the RTX 3050 is always above $300 price tag in amazon, and have the same exact performance, the stagnation of price/performance is insane right now
I got my gtx 1660 super for the same price when they came out. It’s held up pretty well so far
did one of y'all's bitfenix case builds with my friends 1660s he sent me (3070s were all $2k at this point) and this thing has not let me down once, plays everything i want (mostly apex and overwatch) at 140fps easy, such a good card tbh
My test system is running a PNY blower style 1660 Super, Ryzen 5 5500, 16gb Crucial Balistix 3200mhz RAM, 1TB nvme ssd, 4tb spinning rust drive, and an Evga 600w psu and I see very similar performance, I too believe the 1660s isn't talked about enough. Great video. Keep up the awesome work! I originally got the super for $230 around the start of the pandemic (I fried my 980ti :( )
A GTX 1660 super for that price? That's an insanely good offer!
its used
40 bucks more better to go with the 6600
@@TrimVr. Really, but it's better than nothing, especially for people wanting a budget gaming desktop.
yeah in my country theres gtx 1660 super at that exact price in online app shops. but i picked up an rx 6600 xt from a used seller for $177 which is a bargain and in really good condition
Picked up a gtx 1660 Ti for $100 last week for my kids pc.
I picked up a 1660S late summer during the height of the crypto drought. Actually managed to get it locally for about $120USD, I couldn't believe my luck!
It performs great, 1440p is doable for most games. RDR2 on medium/high @ 50-60fps is pretty respectable imo.
Used it until recently, when I came across a 5700XT for $150USD and just couldn't pass it up. A 25-40% performance lift, plus extra VRAM for about $25USD is hard to ignore.
Did my first build last month on the 1660(non super/ti) it has surprised me the performance I got out of the 90$ I got it for!
$10 more and you could had gotten the gtx 1070, which still out performs both the 1660 super and 1660ti lol

@@jponz85 and google said a GTX 1070ti and 1080ti outperform a rx 6600 and 3060 👀🤣💀 wow
@Scarface yeah it does hence why I kept my 1080ti and didn't upgrade to a 3060
my first pc was a i3 10100f and a gtx 1650 super from msi. it wasnt the best looking but i was very proud of it because i built it myself. it wasnt the most powerful but i got almost 3 years out of it before i upgraded mainly because i wanted to feel again the proudness of building a pc again (and r6 siege :). the point is that even a budget build will get you through the years and will make you happy especially if you come from a 2012 family laptop like i did
I have the Palit Stormx model (single-fan) and this card is a little beast. It can handle just about anything I throw at it. I was a bit surprised that it handled Elden Ring and Red Dead Redemption 2 at 1080p +60 fps.
I'm rocking a 4070ti rn so it doesn't really matter
What matters is watching your content and letting myself know how well these old gpus were :)
im currently saving up for a nzxt streaming pro pc and I just love your videos!
Got my 1660 S for $89 on Ebay last month. Love this thing for a budget build!
I recently upgraded my 1650 to a 1660super for my E3-1285Lv3. So far, so good. I'm impressed with what I can do with a decade-old build with seamless incremental upgrades. Update: new upgrade, 2060Super. The Xeon still holds up.
What pc did You have or how much did it cost i got a new pc weigh 1660 super
@@Girlbert11 I have a decade-old platform that I upgraded every once in a while.
I just upgraded my T3600 with an E5-2665 and 64GBs of RAM from an Rx 570 to an RX 5600XT. Basically the competing product from AMD.
It works a dream.
I love that they do videos every day I look at night I have some videos for them to watch❤
I love the amounth of gamed you are testing !
Toastybros great video, but im struggling on which parts to use my budget is less than £450 (around $500) and i want to use a amd 5600g and the graphics you used in this video if you have any pc designs or stuff i could use please let me know thanks.
I have this card, but the gigabyte version. Been using it since 2020, and it working well for me!
My buddy picked up one of these and a power supply for 110. I put it with a 5th gen i5 and 16gbs ram and he is loving it
I did my first build last week with an Optiplex 9020, E3-1271-V3, and GTX 1660 S, and I couldn't be happier! 1080p high settings on MW2 up to 95fps.
Lenovo M82, E3-1285Lv3, 1660Super here. Great value for this pairing.
All Ryzen CPU options? What intel CPU’s would pair well with this card?
Can u recommend some cheap AM4 Motherboards? I try to build a 350ish PC but motherboards are exspensive and mostly not with Wi-FI
I have an i5 4570.. planning to get this card... but kinda worried about the bottleneck issues.. will it run?
What is the most optimal GPU if I have a 5600G like your test bench? For games like star wars
Just built a PC with that DeskMeet case y’all made a video of using this GPU. I threw an rx 6600 in mine and it’s running everything well on my 1080p monitor.
I used to have a rog laptop with i7-1700 and 1660ti, which is very similar to super. Gaming at 1080p was great, some settings at medeum, but overall very good card and in this instance combo. Good job guys.
Was my first build in 2020. Still using it works great.
Always great getting the notification of a new video keep up the good work ❤
My cousin has a 1660 super and he got it for around the same price, nice vid btw
I built my nephew a new gaming PC this past weekend: with his $700 budget, we went i5-13400f, MSI Pro B760-P WiFi, 4x8 GB 3600 MHz RAM and a 1 TB Sabrent Rocket PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD.
I loaned him an old MSI Gaming GTX 1060 6 GB GPU and he’s using an old 27” 1080P IPS panel a family member gave him.
Would the GTX 1660 be a worthy upgrade if he’s planning to stay at 1080p gaming for a while?
Hey Guys! I hope that you having a good day, I was wondering if there is a significant difference between a 360 mm aio with fans set to exhaust and a 280 mm aio with a push pull configuration.
weren’t you able to enable RTX on these at some point?
Any gpu can ray trace its just alot of them don't have enough horsepower to keep it at high framerates.
what do u think about ryzen 5 5600g with a 3050 from msi ?
Which one should i get an rx 5600 xt or a gtx 1660 super? consedeing I found both of them at the same price, 160 USD.
I've just upgraded to a 6800XT but I think the 1660 Super has a ligitmate case to be called the greatest GPU ever created. Its price to perfomance ratio when it was released up to this day is mind blowing. It's insane how versitile this card is.
This is what I’ve been running over clock it and it’s great!
What's the ideal reason to buy processor with integrated graphics even when you're bought a separated gpu !? Might go with 5600 or 5600x
Do they sell replacement fans for those?
can you guys test this cards on Ground Branch, Arma 3, Zero Hour, Ready or Not, Ghost Recon Breakpoint and Squad please. i have those games and i am planning to get 1660 super or Rx 6600 non XT
I have it for almost 2 years now but its Asus Evo dual oc edition...And I have it paired with r5 5500....And I never got disappointed and in a next year or so I will still not plan to upgrade anything...Gaming on high specs AAA titles on a AOC 165hz monitor no probs!
Using the same gpu will the 5600g take away sum performance or is it the same with the 5600
im looking to get into pcs and im debating pre build or build it myself and you guys have helped alot on what to look at.
My first ever desktop was an extremely budget Dell prebuilt, and while I could and did upgrade it, it was very restricting.
Building one yourself especially for your first pc is a lot more rewarding and worth it for the future. I ended up building one years later and I'm never buying a prebuilt for myself again.
@ZlurkX meh there's nothing wrong with getting either I would just get a pre-built used or build one myself. Just got my gf a used alienware aurora for her school and it came with 32gb ram, a 1070 which is better than this 1660 super and even the 1660ti variant. Computer runs great and got it for $500. The used market is where it's at
Find a family member or friend who has built a pc before and see if they can help you for your first time. I had a friend help me with my first build and he walked me through it and made me feel more comfortable with the parts. Eventually I built my own pc years later after watching a bunch of youtube tutorials and taking it slow one step at a time. Its scary at first but very rewarding in the end. Do all the research you can and give building it a shot
@@jponz85 a lot of pre builds have bad motherboards
@@misterpinkandyellow74 source? Even if that's true, pre-built have warranties anyways
what is your opinion on i7 6700k whit 1070ti iChill and 16 gb of ram?
I picked up this exact card just under a month ago for $50 CDN. The guy was selling it cheap because one of the fans was a little wobbly (which i plan on replacing both very soon). I have this paired with an i5 4690k and 16gb of ddr3 gskill xmp ram (yes, old tech, I know). Once i got all my setiings dialed in, this performs fairly well with the i5, but it obviously could do much, much better.You asked in this video if anyone wanted to see older Intel CPU's tested and I wanted to know if you would run some benchmarks with my specs (or as close as possible)? I'm curious to see what you guys are able to achieve.
What’s a good combo with a gtx 1070?
Im still using my 1660s in my gaming PC for now! OC it and it will stand toe to toe with a GTX 1070
I legit got a pc built recentlywith a 1660S and Ryzen 5 3600 and I played Cyberpunk 2077 on high settings with fsr getting 80 plus FPS which was awesome.
I love your VIDEOS!
Would this work for games like FFXIV, World of Warcraft and Fortnite?
That’s a good deal saw a 160$ 2060 the other day used market is in a good place
lets go ahead and use that side rad for the intake aio. and exhaust 3 out the top. Could even pop a hole in that case and flip the psu around so it draws from it.
FYI - the PCIe gen 3 cards will run at full speed even on pcie2 motherboards. Difference is usually only the margin of error.
near my house there is a computer store that is selling a rtx 2060 for 115 dollars, they let use test it and benchmark it to see if its stable and it is stable etc. such a great deal.
i got a ryzen 5 3600 with this graphics card coming today to build my first gaming pc. thanks guys!
Can one of the future builds with this card be in a dell optiplex using a i7 4770
Bought one last week for my SFF PC. I works great! The performance (for the 80€ I paid) is amazing and very very close to the 3050!
is it good with an intel i3 8100 please respond to me
i5 10400f gtx 1660 super here, performs really well. The reason why i wanted a GPU upgrade was because i wanted to play cyberpunk, and damn with a bit of tweaking my gtx 1660 super plays cyberpunk at 1080p 75fps most of the time. The card was definitely the best choice for me because of the messed up GPU prices here in my country.
got a 1070 for about $120 a couple months ago as an upgrade to a 980. It's paired with an i3-10100f. 500GB SSD 4TB HDD 16GB 3200Mhz RAM total cost about $520
How about trying the 5600G with the RX 6650 XT and 32 Gb ram
I love how toastybros simplify things in their videos.
How much power does it need?
Most just need one six pin. A 400w PSU would be lots, as long as your cpu isn't really high end.
It has a tdp of a 125 Watts, and requires a single six pin power connector on most models, but my Gigabyte OC card consumes upwards of a 145 Watts and requires an 8pin rather than a 6pin.
is gtx 1650 good for competitive gaming ?
I got a good price on a 1660ti around Christmas, and I use that, but I know my FPS is limited by the processor I currently use. This is the pain of using an i5-6500. Also the card and most games do not exactly like running at 1920x1200
I have that same gpu. I just replaced it a few days ago with an rtx 3060 ti. It lasted 3 years for me and it worked AMAZING!!!! I got good frames and it was very cheap. I highly recommend this card for a budget.
What CPU you're using? My next upgrade from 1660 Ti might be 3060 Ti too
@@ulfricstormcloak7142 Im currently using a intel i5-9400F, its a little old but its enough to keep up with the 3060 ti, but i highly recommend to get the intel i9-11900k it has a perfect match and a 0.8% calculated bottlenecking which is good.
@Benjiman this "calculated bottleneck" thing isn't always right, especially in this case. You don't need an i9 at all not to bottleneck a 3060ti, any i5 (or even i3 if you're doing 1440p) from the last 2-3 generations would have a 0% bottleneck with a 3060ti in pretty much all intents and purposes.
@@Benduuruu I see. That i9 seems overkill tho. I'm sure I5-10400F or I5-11400F more than enough
Bro what temp u got for 1660 super
I have urs and average temp 75°
Is it worth getting this with an i7 930? It's ddr 3, or should I just build a whole new rig?
Just build a new rig
Just picked one up on marketplace for $$65. Using it for first build with my son this weekend
i have one its a good buy i hope you had fun
Did he say they are going to a 5700g for gen 4 support? I thought it only supported 3.0?
Nvm I guess he said 5700 but that defeats the purpose of why they originally had a 5600g lol (for the igpu)
How the best rated used graphics card for the money under rated ?
Have 1660 super very great 1080p experience also using it with the 5600g and 32gb of ddr4 3200mhz ram! Great combination!
I can get a gtx1660 super for $120ish but am I better off getting a used gtx1080 off Facebook marketplace for the same price?
if i use a ryzen 5 5600x with a 1660 super will it bottleneck
Why the io shield is bent? 🤔
I have the same 1660 super but paired with i5 10400f, and its running great
THANK YOU for starting to provide the mins and max FPS in the benchmarks and not just the averages! Please keep doing that... gives us a better picture of the actual performance.
Loving this content! Would love to see the 2060 next, Is it worth the extra 100-150$ extra?
Nope. Not for the price they're selling it at
While the 2060 is not a bad card for 1080p, the price of it now is not worth it. You are better off going for a 6600 or 6600xt
get A750 instead
I like almost everything about you guys. Louisville Cardinals for life!!
i7-6000 generation with a 1660. Love to see that!
hey if you guys have the suplys i want to see how badly a i9 13900ks can be botllenecked by a gt710
That’s cool so where can I find a pi raspberry 4
What is the best GPU for 1080p Ultra around 80 fps for games like cod - cyberpunk -elden ring - battlefield - Forza ??
Probably a 6600 or 3060
Try the GTX 1660 with a I7 4790 I wonder what it would do for that low end of a cpu
Shoutout to 10100F + 1660 Super users, you guys know it doesnt take all the greatest PC hardware to play the games you love !!
Is it supposed to get up to 81 degrees Celsius and run that hot?
I'd love to see some older Intel stuff paired with the 1660 super. I have two 1660 supers and two 1660 ti's that I acquired all recently for around $130 each. The ti is obviously a better deal but only 5% better.
I shoved one in a small optiplex 790 that had a i7 2600. It had a 500w psu hanging out of the side, lmao. It was pretty solid tbh. Ended up putting it with a 9600k, then traded it and some cash for a 1080ti. It is a great little card I would recommend to get into gaming.
even with a really old cpu like the core i7 3770 this card still shines
I am making a computer myself with the 5600g and I’ve done some research and with it paired with the 1660 super it has a 20 percent cpu bottleneck so there is some missing fps since the 5600g is an apu
Bought the MSI 1660 Super card for $200 new on Amazon on Thanksgiving time. Using it on a i7-9700 cpu that I got for free and 32GB ram just had to buy the gpu, mb, and case. Works great. I'm not an ebayer so it's little ingenious to not talk about what it cost now new which is around $250.
Maybe find a 1630 for $120. 1660 super? No way.
Got my 1660 Ti for $135, is that a good deal?
Look on Ebay it’s pretty easy
I quit counting how many iv bought local for 70 to 80. You never know until you ask
Get home from buying one new in the box for $140 off marketplace and this is the first video on UA-cam😂 Looking forward to my motherboard finally arriving next week and building my first pc.
I have to stick with my current build with an i7-4790 for a while, do a build with that cpu.
Just built a i7 6700, 32gb ram, air cooled, picked this exact card up off of FB Marketplace for 140 and it crushes. I've since bought 5 more of these cards used from various places for older builds.. Cant go wrong with having a couple of these laying around lol.
"It crushes" compared to what?, these cards aren't even all that I would had went gtx 1070 which crushes both this 1660 super and 1660ti and it's cheaper lol. Idk what's all the hype on this card
@@jponz85 it's just newer and consumes a bit less power. Usually has the option of fitting into more cases.
Hyped or not it has a place.
@ArtisChronicles space fitment? Fair enough but if fitment isn't an issue, then idk why this card is more expensive than the 1070 when its clearly inferior to it
@@jponz85 1070 is a decent card too that said in the used market by me they are selling in the 350-400 range when they do pop up (very rare and I scoop them when they do if they are priced right), where the 1660 pops up a lot at 130-160. So for my budget flips it makes since. That said these are flips, i have a bunch of 3060, 3080, 3090's on a shelf here just not using those in these flips..
my first gaming pc i built back in 2021 had a ryzen 7 5800x, zotac gaming 1660 super, 32gb ddr4 3200, msi gaming mobo, and a 212 rgb edition. bought the 1660 super on amazon for around 700$ which can get me a 3060 today.
I run a 1660 super on my 4k monitor and it runs a lot of games including PUBG way above 60fps and in apex legends I get 85-90fps on max settings at 4k. I do have the settings at pretty much a minimum on all games but it still looks way better to me than 1440p any day.
how much fps do u get on rdr 2 1440p ?
I just did an old workstation build. Dell t3600, xeon 2650 32gb ddr3 with the 1660 super halo infinite locked at 75fps 1080p medium preset
This is quite similar to my setup. Same CPU, another B550 mobo (in my case Aorus), 16 gb of RAM (3200 mhz in my case) and a regular GTX 1660 (not Super nor Ti). Quite happy with it and you can play most games in 1080p with high settings with no problem. Obviously I didn't pay 500 $ as my computer was bought during that time when prices were insane (and in some cases still are) and because in Europe PC parts are much more expensive than in the USA.
A friend of mine, here in the UK, found an RX5700XT for about the same price as 1660S/Tis over here. If these were going for US prices here they'd be budget champs but as it stands the 5700XTs are the ones to get in the UK right now. At least these are 12U compliant so they'll keep basically running new stuff for years.
@@darthwiizius prices are a joke. I payed for my GPU second hand too much (around 300 euros albeit in a pristine conditiom) but then new they were around 450. My goal was a 1080, but they were even more expensive, no matter new or second hand.
@@jonpeley
Yeah I know what you mean, I bought my 2060S in April 2020 just as the GPUpocalypse began, it brought tears to my eyes and moths to my wallet costing £400, which was MSRP on a new card (it was a pristine boxed lightly used one) but it was literally the only card available in my town new or old and I needed a card so I was kind of stuck. Still it's served me well I suppose, it's just a few weeks earlier I could have bought a 2070 new for £70 less .
I look on the ground but I never find one laying around anywhere, it’s unfortunate as it’s about the only way it’s going to fit into my budget
My first budget build GPU. What a gem really. Especially at 1080p. For the price to performance, it's a great card to have.
