2019 mid-range performance graphics card based on the Nvidia TU116 GPU based on the high-end Turing microarchitecture. It is a replacement for the popular GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB model, which it confidently surpasses both in terms of the number of functional units and in terms of overall performance (by 25-50%). At the same time, typical heat dissipation and power consumption (TDP) remained at the same relatively modest level of 120 watts. Thanks to its advanced microarchitecture, the gaming performance of the MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GAMING X 6G graphics card reaches the level of the GeForce GTX 1070 models in many modes, and in some cases approaches the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. Without problems, it provides a comfortable frame rate in all popular game projects of 2015-2019 at resolutions of 192...0x1080, and in most cases at 2560x1440. Moreover, a comfortable high frame rate is guaranteed at maximum graphics quality settings. Equipped with a powerful and quiet 7th generation Twin Frozr cooling system with improved Torx 3.0 fans and three heat pipes. An impressive amount of 6 GB graphics memory (GDDR6, 192-bit) and hardware support for DirectX 12 and Open GL 4.5 make it possible to use realistic high-resolution textures and colorful graphic effects.

Turing

After successfully capturing the upper price segment with the GeForce RTX 20 line, NVIDIA began to strengthen its position in the $ 200 — 300 range. To do this, the company released a pack of new GTX 16 cards on the same new Turing microarchitecture, but without support for much unnecessary hardware ray tracing. The GTX 1660 Ti from MSI presented in this review is, in fact, a direct successor to the most popular graphics card of recent years, the GTX 1060.

35% faster than GTX 1060

The novelty costs more than its predecessor by an average of 20%, but in terms of performance it goes ahead with a comfortable advantage. It's no joke, in the new COD Modern Warfare 1660 Ti at Ultra settings it gives out 40 FPS more — 118 versus 78. In most modern games, the FPS increase is from 25 to 35%, and in some cases even 40%. In fact, this is performance at the level of the near-top GTX 1070 of the previous generation, which are almost gone from the store shelves.

Completely redesigned board and cooler

If we talk about a specific modification of the Gaming X from MSI, then this is one of the best representatives of the GTX 1660 Ti. Here you have an adequate price, and powerful factory overclocking of the GPU, and a good overclocking potential of the memory, and a powerful but quiet cooling system, and a pumped design of the board with cooling of power elements, memory chips and a protective plate on the back of the PCB. And don't forget about RGB lighting. Well, thanks to the increased core frequency, the performance of the MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti GAMING X is almost on par with the base version of the RTX 2060.
