Is the GTX 1660Ti really such and underperformer?

The UserBenchmark screen shows that you have vSync enabled. That is preventing an accurate benchmark.

It's actually on, let 3D application decide on NVidia's control panel. I have a FreeSync Monitor, so I just turn it off in the games settings. Not sure how to turn it off in control panel without it switching to whatever settings are in the graphics part of that menu.

My 1660 Ti performs just fine (with my 2600 or my 3700x):
With Ryzen 5 2600:

With Ryzen 7 3700x:

As stated above Disable vSync/FPS cap and see how it does.

It was G-Sync that was still enabled. It did much better on the benchmark site.

What's your overclocking for the 1660? Did you use MSi or EVGA?

I use MSI AfterBurner with GPU @+125 Memory @ +750.

I use MSI AfterBurner with GPU @+125 Memory @ +750.

Thanks for the quick response. I'll try AfterBurner and see how things pan out.

Performed pretty great, thanks for that. I also watched a Jayz2cents video on overclocking this card with MSi AfterBurner and he had similar settings, except he went higher on the memory frequency. Thanks again.
