It's 43% faster than your card.

Also, for you and for everyone else who wants to know if X card is better/worse than X card, look at the comparative performance chart on the GPU page:

Well, the problem is getting plutonium for your flux capacitor in order to go back in time to buy one of those at original MSRP.

Seriously, though, 1660 Super doesn't support DLSS. Factor in DLSS and this card has a much greater performance potential.

After launch these cards were going for double MSRP by scalpers. Nice to see they made it all the way back down to where they belong.

There's no point overclocking this so no need of a backplate other than looks.

How's this compared to the ASUS GeForce GTX 1650 OC (ph-gtx1650-o4gd6)?
Should I upgrade? I only play like PUBG.

Quote from Mr_Sadness :
The $250 RTX 3050 is 5% better than my $230 GTX 1660 Super at 1080p max settings but cost 9% more. Isn't performance per dollar supposed to improve over time?
EVGA 1660 Super is $360 https://www.evga.com/products/pro...P4-1068-KR

I would say since this costs $110 less, it's performance per dollar has improved significantly.

Based off of current real life prices performance per dollar has improved. But based off of MSRP prices, you are paying $2.31 per frame vs $2.23 per frame with the GTX 1660 Super according to https://www.techspot.com/review/2...-rtx-3050/

6 gb 1660 TI or this? Think I can sell my current 1660 TI for about this price.
