GTX 1660 SUPER: These new graphics and the custom Zotac model are confirmed

First images of an NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER, the most powerful graphics card in the lower-mid range and that will carry GDDR6 memory.

Until now, the NVIDIA 'SUPER' designation was reserved for GTX 20 Series graphics cards. It seems that the company will finally extend this denomination to the GTX 16 Series. The company's simplest charts with RT Cores and Tensor Cores will receive at least one version. During the last weeks there has been a lot of talk about a GTX 1660 SUPER, which has just been made official.

This new NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER graphics card will be the most powerful in the company's mid-range lineup. There won't be a reference model; instead, we'll see custom versions from manufacturers. These will likely be priced lower than even the models that are being released to replace and compete with the AMD RX 5500.

NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER Confirmed

Zotac has been the first of the manufacturers to have these charts ready. The company will have two models, the simple model and an AMP model. This second model, with a better cooling system, will have factory overclocking and therefore better performance.

Another of the outstanding novelties of this graph is that it will not come with GDDR5 memories, but that it will arrive with GDDR6 memories. The change of memories seems not to be important, but it gives us an extra performance. Getting more bandwidth improves the final performance of the graphics.

The frequencies have not yet been confirmed, which will be revealed shortly before launch or when NVIDIA officially unveils them. We see how this graphic has an 8-pin PCIe connector and completely lacks an NVLink port. Regarding its performance, we should expect 10-15% more than the GTX 1660 with a fairly similar consumption.

We assume that in the next few days NVIDIA will reveal the launch date and Zotac the market price of its two models.
