Bottom line: how fast is the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER?

At 1440p not specified, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER averages 55 fps in Final Fantasy XV, per Modders Inc. For local LLM inference it generates 41.4 tokens/sec running llama2:7b at q4_0 under llama.cpp, per llama.cpp GitHub. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 15,234 points, per Notebookcheck. Its 6 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card is gemma:7b (8.5B parameters, q4_K_M), generating 9.7 tokens/sec under ollama, per DatabaseMart.

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
