Zotac Gaming GeForce GTX 1660 6GB GDDR5 Graphics Card Review

Zotac GeForce GTX 1660 3DMark Suite Testing

Here we will run the Zotac GTX 1660 through graphics-related benchmarks. These are still GPUs so we wanted to give at least a perspective on this aspect of performance.

We wanted to make a note about the Port Royal Benchmark. Port Royal is the first benchmark that tests the RT (Ray Tracing) feature on NVIDIA RTX cards. This was first introduced with the RTX line of graphics cards. NVIDIA later released updates to its drivers that would allow non-RTX graphics cards to run RTX graphics features.

Here we see the results of running the Zotac GTX 1660 under Port Royal. This benchmark puts a staggering load upon the GTX 1660 which generates a very low score. It’s also worth noting the FPS count was at 5.83 which is simply not usable, it was painful to watch the benchmark run.

Here are the 3DMark suite results. We will discuss them after the charts.

We wanted to quickly point out here that this is a case where the current lower-end GeForce GTX 1660 now outpaces the older Titan Black. That shows just how far we have come.

Overall we see an entry-level performance from the Zotac GeForce GTX 1660.

Next, we are going to look at the Zotac GTX 1660 power and temperature tests, and then give our final words.

  1. 95% of the content on this site is solid, but many of these “reviews” leave me scratching my head. Did no one look at these benchmark charts and realize that comparing a budget card to 15 high end cards and a couple of Kepler cards was incredibly unhelpful? This card is at the bottom of every benchmark! Why not compare it to cards in its range, I.E. 1060 and 1070? I mean this is the type of stuff you learn about in an intro stats class.
