Topic: Ask which one is better GTX 1060 or 1660 (Read 276 times)
I would consider 1660 Super, GDDR6 memory has better performance and in future the resale value of these gpus will be better.
The only difference on both GPU is the power consumption.
GTX 1060 is eating more power compared to GTX 1660. So if you care about the power better choose gtx 1660 and I think gtx 1660 is getting more improvements in new algo and coins.

1660 have some improvements on the technology, it's not something really difft, but I bet in 10-20% better than 1060
1660 is better than 1060 for most stuff. New gen cards should get more optimizations in the future.
GTX 1660Ti gives 30-31 mh/s on Ethash with 90 watts of consumption by Core (according to GPU-Z) thanks to GDDR6 memory. It is much better than GTX1060. GTX1660 has GDDR5 memory - the same as 1060, that's why there is almost no improvment on Ethash algo. GTX1660 is bette than 1060 only on algos sensitive to Core frequency.
Interestingly, according to WhatToMine.com, both the cards offer almost the same hashrate for the same amount of power consumption (~21 Mh/s with 90 Watts of power for Ethash). I'm not an Nvidia guy when it comes to mining (I've always bought AMD cards for this purpose), but IMHO, you should go for the 1660s instead of the 1060s.
I'm here to buy some Nvidia GPUs to add to my new engine. Indeed mining is no longer an interesting subject anymore because profits are rather difficult at this time.
But I want to ask which one is better for the latest GPU, especially from the Nvidia GTX 1060 or GTX 1660, and the results of hashrate and efficiency of the power consumption problem.
Thank you in advance for giving input.
