Review on GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1660 Ti OC 6G πŸ–₯️ GDDR6 DisplayPort HDMI Windforce 2X Graphic Card - Gv-N166TOC-6GD by Daniel Ogbebor

The silicon lottery is a win!

Smooth gaming! You don't need the most expensive card model to be great! However, I did feel a crunch during my build, so I looked for a cheap 1660ti. Gigabyte Gv-N166TOC-6GD fully met this need! This model only has 1 heatpipe on the radiator, but that's ok! I was playing Overwatch at 140fps 62-66c and 65% fan speed at Epic settings on a 2560x1080 monitor paired with an i5 3570k (still waiting for a new CPU and NVME SSD). I must have won the silicon lottery because straight from the manufacturer's website my model should be 1800 Boost and the base reference 1770, mine goes to 1875-1970, it stays at 1970 if you max power and temperature in MSI all the way down right shift afterburner. You can then further overclock the core and add 1000 to memory, boys and girls, that's power 2060! This is a really great card at $279 and you won't regret it! Beautiful gigabyte work!
