About ARKTEK GTX 1660 Super

The Arktek GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6GB is a highly efficient mid-range graphics card that remains a favorite for 1080p gaming enthusiasts.1 Built on the Turing architecture (specifically the TU116 chip), the "SUPER" variant provides a massive performance jump over the original GTX 1660 by upgrading to ultra-fast GDDR6 memory, effectively making it up to 20% faster.2+1Technical PerformanceThe card is equipped with 1,408 CUDA cores and operates with a base clock of 1,530 MHz, boosting up to 1,785 MHz.3 While it shares the same core count as the non-Super version, its 6GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus delivers a much higher bandwidth of 336 GB/s.4 This allows the card to handle high-fidelity textures and complex shaders without the stuttering associated with older GDDR5 models.+1ComponentSpecificationGPU ArchitectureNVIDIA Turing (TU116)Memory6GB GDDR6 (14 Gbps)Memory Interface192-bitTDP / Power125W (450W PSU Recommended)Outputs1x HDMI, 1x DisplayPort, 1x DVICooling and FeaturesThe Arktek model features the Matrix Dual Fan cooling system, which utilizes two high-airflow fans and a large aluminum heatsink to keep the GPU temperature well below its 93°C limit.5 Despite being part of the GTX series (meaning it lacks dedicated RT cores for Ray Tracing), it still supports NVIDIA NVENC, the dedicated hardware encoder.6 This makes it an excellent, budget-friendly choice for streamers who want to broadcast gameplay without overloading their CPU.
