Question GTX 1660 ti or GTX 1070

[Dayan Mohottiarachchi]

GTX 1660 ti for performance or GTX 1070 for Vram ... ?? what is the better option to have now?? '

 

[Zephyl]

The 1070 actually outperforms the 1660 Ti in some games while the it's vice-versa in others. For example, the 1070 gets a few more FPS in The Witcher III, AC: Unity, and Far Cry 5 (to name a few) while the 1660 Ti has the edge in AC: Odyssey and SotTR, to name a few. Personally, I would go for the 1070 for more VRAM and possibly lower used prices, but the 1660 Ti is a great option if you would rather have a new card with newer features.

For $50-70 more (depending on model) you can get the Awesome 2060 - but always only if in budget

Yeah I agree with everything said, get the 1070 if you ca get a good deal on one (most like you wont since prices never come down on Nvidia stuff new and used prices are stupid high, used a 1070 should be around 200 to 230 USD at most)

or as suggested if it in your budget get the 2060. But be warned teh 2060 while it does have ray tracing, is not powerful enough to actually run it and get decent frame-rate.

The 1660 Ti has a slight edge overall in performance, but call them about even.
The 1660 Ti has lower power consumption
The 1660 Ti, new, is less expensive than a new 1070 (US prices checked on PCPartPicker)

I would without a doubt go with the 1660Ti if I were choosing between the two of them.

Hi guys, thanks for all the opinions .. i just came across Gigabyte G1 Nvidia GTX1070 for $260 and a MSI GTX 1070 gaming x for $310.. .. in where i live... and a 1660 ti is around $400 here... and for both GTX 1070's im getting a one year warranty and for the 1660 ti im getting a 3 year warranty .... What are your opinions on this ?

 

[King_V]

Ooh, with that much of a lower price for the G1 1070.... that changes things.

I would strongly consider the $260 Gigabyte card. The warranty may be shorter, but at $140 less than the 1660ti, it seems worthwhile to me.

Wise choice. It's a card that offers great value as you can pick one up on ebay used in great condition for even as low as $200!
