NVIDIA has confirmed to the press that GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER will launch on October 29th.
The first Super Turing without ray-tracing
The GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER will be the first Turing GPU lacking ray-tracing support to carry the SUPER branding. NVIDIA has decided to refresh the lineup with slightly faster models, featuring higher clocks, more cores or better memory configuration.
In the case of GTX 1660 SUPER, we are looking at the exact same GPU like GTX 1660 non-SUPER, the TU116-300 (confirmed by our source). This also means that the card will carry the same core count as non-SUPER SKU, which is 1408 CUDAs.
The GTX 1660 SUPER also features a new memory configuration. The maximum theoretical bandwidth has increased to 336 GB/s, which is even more than GTX 1660 Ti (288 GB/s). This is possible thanks to GDDR6 memory rated at 14 Gbps (the Ti model is clocked at 12 Gbps).
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER will launch on October 29th for 229 USD. This is 10 USD more than non-SUPER, but also 50 USD less than the Ti variant.
