NVIDIA GTX 1660 Super
Just like the GeForce RTX Superseries, 1660 Super also offers better performance. As you can see in the above FPS comparison, GTX 1660 Super outperforms the GTX 1660 in popular games like Fornite, Sniper Elite 4 and Rainbow Six Siege. The GTX 1660 SUPER has the same 1408 CUDA cores as the GTX 1660. The base clock speed 1530MHz and boost clock speed 1785MHz are also same as 1660. However, the GTX 1660 Super uses faster 14Gbps GDDR6 memory rather than 8Gbps GDDR5 memory resulting in improved memory bandwidth.
It makes GTX 1660 SUPER 20% faster than the GTX 1660 and 1.5x faster than the GTX 1060 6GB. These new graphics cards are based on Turing architecture. The thermal power consumption is increased to 125W from 120W and it has the same single 8-pin auxiliary power supply.
GTX 1650 Super
The GTX 1650 SUPER has faster 12Gbps GDDR6 memory. This makes the GTX 1650 SUPER 50% faster than the GTX 1650 and 2x faster than the GTX 1050.
GeForce GTX 1660 Super will be priced at Rs. 20,500 ($219). GeForce GTX 1660 was launched at Rs. 21,500.
