Description
The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 6GB OC is a reliable graphics card aimed at users seeking high performance at a reasonable price. With a Turing TU116 core and 6GB of GDDR5 memory, the GTX 1660 offers enough power to run most games at maximum settings in 1080p resolution.
Gigabyte has also enhanced this card with its unique high-performance cooling technology, Windforce 2X, which helps keep the temperature at reasonable levels and maintain the card's operation for a longer period.
GeForce Experience
Capture and share videos, screenshots, and live streams with your friends. Keep your drivers up to date and optimize your game settings. GeForce Experience allows you to do all that. It is the essential companion to your GeForce graphics card.
Turing Shaders
The Turing Shaders offer enhanced rendering and graphics processing capabilities on Nvidia's graphics cards.
They operate using a workflow architecture that allows simultaneous processing of multiple parts of the image, leading to more realistic results and improved energy efficiency compared to the previous generation for a faster, cooler, and quieter gaming experience.
Nvidia Reflex
Low Latency Mode
The GeForce GTX 16 Series cards and Nvidia Reflex provide the lowest latency and best responsiveness for the ultimate competitive advantage.
Designed to optimize and measure system latency, Reflex delivers faster target acquisition, quicker reaction times, and the best aiming precision for competitive games.
Game Ready Drivers
GeForce Game Ready drivers provide the best possible experience for your favorite games. They are finely tuned in collaboration with developers and have been extensively tested on thousands of hardware configurations for maximum performance and reliability.
NVIDIA Ansel
NVIDIA Ansel is a powerful program that allows you to take professional-level photos from your games.
Now, you can share your most brilliant gaming experiences with super-resolution, 360-degree, and HDR photos.
DirectX 12
DirectX 12 is a technology developed by Microsoft and used by many graphics card manufacturers, including Nvidia.
GeForce graphics cards provide advanced DX12 features such as ray tracing and variable rate shading, bringing games to life with highly realistic visual effects and faster frame rates.
Nvidia G-SYNC
This technology synchronizes the computer's screen refresh rate with the game's frame rate, thereby eliminating tearing, stuttering, and other issues related to unsynchronized graphics performance.
To use G-Sync, a compatible monitor that supports the technology is required.
Virtual Reality
Virtual reality offers some of the most immersive experiences in PC gaming. But getting the right VR is difficult. With actual screen resolutions at 4K and increasing, minimum refresh rates of 90 Hz, and high latency tolerances, virtual reality is one of the most demanding applications in the world.
Windforce 2X Cooling System
The Windforce 2X cooling system features unique blade fans 2x90mm, Alternate Spinning, composite copper heat pipe direct touch, and 3D active fan functionality, providing an effective heat dissipation capability for higher performance at lower temperatures
Reverse Rotation
Gigabyte's reverse spinning is the only solution that can solve the turbulent airflow of adjacent fans. Since the adjacent fans rotate in the same direction, the airflow direction is opposite between the fans, which will cause turbulent airflow and reduce heat dissipation performance.
Gigabyte reverses the adjacent fans in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing turbulence and increasing airflow pressure.
3D Active Fan
The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in low load or low power game. It allows gamers to enjoy the game in absolute silence when the system is running without load or is idle.
Unique Fan with Blades
The airflow is dispersed by the triangular edge of the fan and is smoothly guided through the curve of the 3D stripes on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the airflow.
Direct Contact Heat Pipe
The shape of the pure copper heat pipe maximizes the direct contact surface with the GPU, enhancing heat transfer. The heat pipe also covers the VRAM through a large contact metal plate to ensure proper cooling.
Composite heat pipe
The composite heat pipe combines thermal conductivity and phase transition for effective heat transfer management between two solid surfaces, which increases cooling capacity.
Backplate Protection
The backplate not only provides an aesthetic shape but also reinforces the structure of the graphics card to provide complete protection.
- Ultra cooling
The MOSFETs with lower RDS(on) are specially designed to produce lower switching resistance for faster charging and discharging of electric current at an extremely low temperature.
- Low power loss
The metal choke holds energy much longer than common iron core chokes at high frequency, thus effectively reducing core energy loss and EMI interference.
- Longer lifespan
Solid capacitors with lower ESR ensure better electronic conductivity for excellent system performance and longer lifespan.
