The Nvidia GTX 1660 released back in 2019, but Valve’s latest Steam Hardware Survey figures suggest people are still buying the graphics card. Rather than necessarily jumping from lower spec favorites like the GTX 1650 to the new RTX 4060, players appear to be sticking with the GTX line of GPUs for the most part.
I’m hesitant to call the Nvidia GTX 1660 one of the best graphics cards around, but its price makes it a top option for budget gaming PC builders. That said, I’d be careful when shopping around for one on Amazon, as while you can snag one for as little as $165.99, most of the cheaper options are by brands I’ve never heard of. Don’t get me wrong, Asus, MSI, and Zotax will also hook you up, but pricing is what makes the apparent shift towards the GTX card in 2023 quite interesting.
