EVGA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB GDDR5
The Turing-based GTX 1660 chip with a 1830MHz boost clock and 6GB GDDR5 memory delivers reliable 1080p gaming in a compact 190mm card. Its single HDB fan keeps temperatures at 65°C under load while drawing just 130W, and the 2.75-slot cooler operates with notably low noise. This card is best for budget-conscious builders upgrading older systems who need dependable 1080p performance without a PSU upgrade.
