Palit GeForce GTX 1660 Ti StormX OC

Turing Architecture and Performance

The Palit GeForce GTX 1660 Ti StormX OC (NE6166TS18J9-161F) leverages NVIDIA’s Turing architecture, featuring 1536 CUDA cores and a 1815 MHz boost clock (+3% over stock). Its 6GB GDDR6 memory at 12 Gbps (288 GB/s bandwidth) delivers strong 1080p (~80–100 FPS in *Fortnite* Ultra) and solid 1440p (~50–70 FPS) gaming. It includes Turing Shaders and NVENC for streaming but lacks ray tracing and DLSS. Users praise its performance for budget 1080p/1440p gaming but note limited VRAM for future AAA titles.

Single Fan Cooling and Compact Design

The single axial fan cooling system keeps temperatures at ~65–75°C under load with moderate noise (~30–35 dB). The 2-slot design (168 x 122 x 40 mm) is ideal for mini-ITX and small form factor builds. Users commend its compact size but note the single fan may struggle in cases with poor airflow. Use Palit ThunderMaster for overclocking and fan control.

Connectivity and Power Efficiency

Supporting PCIe 3.0 x16, the card offers 1x HDMI 2.0b, 1x DisplayPort 1.4a, and 1x DVI-D for 1080p/1440p displays (max 7680x4320 @ 60Hz). It requires a 400W PSU with one 8-pin PCIe connector (120W TDP). Users appreciate its power efficiency and legacy DVI-D support but note limited multi-monitor support (up to 3). Ideal for budget gaming PCs.
