Value for money

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

Technical specs

General performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core base clock and boost clock speeds, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider their benchmark and gaming test results. Note that power consumption of some graphics cards can well exceed their nominal TDP, especially when overclocked.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	1408	1792
Core clock speed	1530 MHz	1000 MHz
Boost clock speed	1785 MHz	1105 MHz
Number of transistors	6,600 million	5,700 million
Manufacturing process technology	12 nm	14 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	120 Watt	120 Watt
Texture fill rate	157.1	123.8

Size and compatibility

Information on GeForce GTX 1660 and Radeon Pro 570X compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.
