Rational choice for high-end games, ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1660 GAMING Ti D6 6GB

[smartPC사랑=김희철 기자] Based on Pascal architecture, the GTX 1060 has features comparable to those of the previous generation GTX 980. This has allowed consumers to experience high-performance graphics processors at low cost.

This feature is now inherited by RTX 2060. The price of the RTX 2060 was in line with the performance of the GTX 1070 Ti. However, the price range was as high as 40,000 won. NVIDIA introduced a new graphics card that reduced its price range by excluding the RT core and the tensor core.

The GTX 1060 resumed the 6GB seat

The GTX 1060 6GB was priced at US $ 249 (recommended retail price). RTX 2060, however, has an MSRP of $ 349 and a difference of $ 100 for two GPUs. For less than $ 300, consumers needed a high-performance, easy-to-access GPU, and the GTX 1660 Ti came on the market for that reason.

The GTX 1660 Ti is built on TU116 Turing architecture. Turing's architecture, but as Naming claims, reveals that RT and tensor nuclei are excluded. It is focused on graphical rendering, which improves performance.

Nevertheless, it has variable rate shading (VRS) capability as a Turing architecture. Supports adaptive shading. This is a technique to increase the frame by adjusting the shading load without deteriorating the visual quality. These technologies are up to 1.5 times faster than the GTX 1060 6GB in games.

Wolfenstein 2: the new Colossus has improved its performance 1.5 times faster than the GTX 1060.

GTX 1660 Ti with the ROG STRIX range

The ASUS GeForce GTX 1660 Ti O6G ROG STRIX G6 6GB DIG (ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G) is a high performance graphics card. The clock boost runs at 1860 MHz in game mode and at 1890 MHz in OC mode.

What about specifications? There are 1,536 Cuda cores. The memory is equipped with a GDDR6 memory of 6 GB like the RTX 2060. It is better than the GTX 1060 6 GB with GDDR5. The device is equipped with HDMI 2.0b x2 and DisplayPort 1.4×2. The recommended power capacity is 450W.

A maximum resolution of 7680×4320 is supported and the display can be connected up to four. The software comes with Ausus GPU Tweak II, wtfast and more. If you use wtfast, you can play online games with a low ping for 6 months.

▲ Triple Axis Fan reduces the heat transferred through the heat sink.

▲ rear plate mounted at the back.

▲ The auxiliary power supply uses a 6 + 2 pin power connector.

▲ HDMI 2.0b x2, DisplayPort 1.4 x2 equipped with.

Sensible Assistance Aura Sync

The graphics cards that come with ROG STRIX come with the brilliant Aura Sync feature. The ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G also supports it. Ausus Aura When using hardware that supports LEDs (motherboard, graphics card, monitor, etc.), you can configure the RGB mode by synchronizing it. Stealth mode is also supported to disable RGB effects.

▲ The Aura RGB application allows you to change the colors and apply various effects.

High performance cooling system

Temperature management is easy with a well-equipped graphics card. ROG STRIX The GTX 1660 Ti O6G is equipped with a high-performance triple Axial Tech cooling fan. The noise is reduced by introducing a lot of air at high speed. Dual mode is also equipped with P mode. Q mode can be selected. P mode actively reduces the temperature by continuously rotating the cooling fan. Q mode is slightly lower for the rpm for quiet operation.

The heat diffuser increased the contact area up to twice as much as the GPU. Quickly emit heat. The FTW architecture also includes a frame that prevents twisting of the board and prevents lateral bending. Thanks to this, we have increased the integrity three times.

▲ GPU Tweak 2 was able to adjust the details. The clock boost worked at 1860 MHz.

Let's see.

The ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G is available with Intel Core i7-9700K, TeamGroup T-Force DDR4 16G PC4-25600 CL16 Night Hawk RGB (8Gx2), Gigabyte Z390 AORUS MASTER, Bronze Power Micronix Performance II HV 850W Supply, Windows 10 64 bits RS5.

▲ We have confirmed the internal information of ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G with GPU-Z. It has been confirmed that 1,536 shaders (CUDA cores), a 6 GB GDDR6 192 GB memory and a 1500 MHz base clock.

▲ After running the UniJin Valley performance test, I changed the resolution to 2560×1440 resolution in the extreme presetting and fixed the viewpoint on the first screen. In this state, the temperature was measured after 15 minutes and measured at 58 degrees. 58 drawings in full load can be used.

3DMARK's graphical score is 16,887 FireStrikes and 6,459 Time Spy. For reference, the GTX 1060 6 GB (1771 MHz amplified clock) was measured with 13,441 FireStrikes and 4,078 Time Spy. The GTX 1070 also measures 17,500 FireStrike and 5,400 Time Spy on a baseline. In other words, the FireStrike standard lies between the GTX 1060 and the GTX 1070. The weather spy based on DX12 was the highest of the GTX 1660 Ti.

▲ I could not drive the royal port reference because I did not install the RT kernel and the tensor kernel. The same goes for NVIDIA DLSS tests.

▲ Final Fantasy 15. Benchmark is a version running with existing TAA technology at a resolution of 3840×2160. The total score is 3,345. The rating is normal. For reference, the ROG STRIX RTX 2060 O6G was rated at 4.023 and this rating was high.

▲ Shadow of the tomb Raider 1920×1080. Very high presetting, TAA applied. There are 79 images in the full option state. For reference, ROG STRIX RTX 2060 O6G was 93 images under the same conditions.

▲ Shadow of the tomb Raider 2560×1440. At an average QHD resolution of 52 images. The ROG STRIX RTX 2060 O6G contained 60 images.

▲ Shadow of the Tomb Raider 3840×2160. In the full 4K UHD option situation, we recorded an average of 26 images. The ROG STRIX RTX 2060 O6G had an average of 31 images.

▲ Over-observation was measured in the training zone with a 100% rendering scale according to the best option. Full HD resolution was measured at a minimum of 149 frames per 169 frames, QHD resolution at least 96 frames at an average of 112 frames, and 4K UHD resolution at a minimum of 48 frames at an average of 56 frames.

finish

ROG STRIX The GTX 1660 Ti O6G has been measured with performance similar to that of the GTX 1070. The RTX 2060, similar to the GTX 1070 Ti, is a convincing result. The ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G can be a good choice if you're looking for a built-in graphics card that delivers high speed and value.
