NVIDIA GTX 1660 All you need to know - maybe?

2019-02-15
20:19 two things will be happening this guy will be turning 53 young years of age and nvidia is gonna be really seeing a brand new video card to the market that's right the rumors are obviously true because there are people out there selling this card so it is true there will be a gtx 1660 and there'll be a couple of varieties there'll be the TI version and the standard version and it's rumored that they'll even be a three gigabyte version now why anybody really be releasing a three gigabyte version at this time in the game I don't know maybe somebody's got an older monitor an older system they just don't really need a high-end video card but here's what it's looking like it's looking like we're gonna see prices at 279 for the Ti version and about 229 for the non TI version of these cards now what's really the difference between these cards and our TX 2060 well let's talk about that real quick the GeForce r-tx 2060 fe features a tu 106 chipset now here you guys can see a picture of the tu one one six four hundred and there's also rumored to be a tu one one six 300 now the differences that we're seeing as far as CUDA cores go on the 2060 we're seeing 1920 it's rumored that on the six gigabyte version of the 1660 Ti we're gonna see fifteen hundred and thirty six and on the standard version we're gonna see twelve hundred and eighty and we're also gonna see twelve hundred eighty on the three gigabyte version now you have to take into account that these are rumored things now the only thing I think that really does suggest though that these are going to be actual facts is that these products are for sale in systems by certain you know manufacturers out there who build custom systems so that kind of like lends credence to the fact that these cards are coming now one thing about the 1660 series in general it's not going to feature any of the tensor cores or RT core so there's not going to be any r-tx support whatsoever however you are going to see faster shading to the 12 our design process now as far as the texture units go on the r-tx 2060 efi we see there are 120 texture units on the 1660 TI 6 gigabyte version there's 96 on the standard 6 gigabyte version there is room in Derby 80 and on the 3 gigabyte versions 80 as well now the base clock of the RT X 2060 Fe is thirteen hundred and sixty-five megahertz now something it's kind of interesting is that the gtx 1660 TI six gigabyte version is rumored to be 1500 megahertz in its base clock and what's even stranger is that on the standard gtx 1660 we're seeing fifteen hundred and thirty megahertz as the base clock and this is also seen on the three gigabyte version as well now as far as the GPU boost goes on the our TX 2060 efi we see sixteen hundred and eighty megahertz now in the gtx 1660 TI six gigabyte version this is seventeen hundred and seventy megahertz and it actually jumps up fifteen megahertz on both the standard version and the three gigabyte version now across the board all of these cards feature 192 bit memory interface the memory clocks however are different the 2060 has 7000 megahertz the TI 6000 megahertz the standard version and the three gigabyte version are both at 4000 megahertz also none of the 1660 cards have any ROPS whatsoever those are strictly for the our TX card so like I said there's rumors that these cards are coming and I believe these rumors are going to be true because like I said there are places out there selling these things and people don't want to really be selling stuff and have people returning it saying hey you lied on these specifications and a Zeus has a lot of different bottles that looks like that or be gonna be coming out now my whole thing is this though 3 gigabyte version I mean is there really any reason for that whatsoever it really doesn't seem like there is I mean you would have figured they would have gone with a 408 I don't know it just seems a little bit weird as far as the memory configurations go but we'll see how it does in the market I guess if you really do have an older system you've got a smaller monitor and you're not gonna be doing things at high resolution maybe a card that's 229 bucks that does speed up everything else you're doing really quickly it could be a great you know benefit for them now how this is really gonna affect AMD we'll have to see I mean I'm kind of pondering right now if AMD is even going to be able to compete with Nvidia at all in 2019 at this moment in time I'm just really not quite sure it looks like I'm the video card side of things it's probably gets gonna be a lot of the same and video will be toppling the towers and AMD will just be slightly behind them but there you go folks it looks like we're gonna see new cards in that lower price range from Nvidia 279 for the TI 229 for the standard version who knows what the three gigabyte version is maybe that's when it's gonna be $229 I guess we'll just actually have to see when they actually get released on the market my birthday is February 22nd and that's when these cards are rumored to come out so hopefully you know I'll have one from my birthday present out there you know wink wink wink
