Are the 1660 Super and 2060 the equivalent?

[swagg]

Considering the fact the two GPUs are relatively the same, I'm curious on what some of yous thoughts are.

No, they are not, 2060 is slightly better of course in terms of pretty much everything, plus 2060 has RTX, which you can barely use as well.

I have a 1660s and it’s meh, it runs most games decently but I’d probably suggest a 2060

The 2060 Is 31% Better than the 1660 However its price is very similar

relatively the same

not at the slightest lmao

Depending on the AIB both models come relatively close to 230 Euro's new, even the 2060 Super.
Plus the 2060 has RT cores and is able to use DLSS while the 1660 is stuck with FSR implementation.

In Rainbow Six the normal 2060 is able to get at least 100FPS more.

If you're looking for a cheap-ish GPU I'd recommend looking into the used marked and start out with a 3060, there is an auction where you can instead buy it outright for 230 near me. It'll last you longer than a 2060 Super and waaay more than a 1660. GPU's barely degrade and the only thing you're missing out on is warranty and maybe some dried up thermal paste but considering how recent-ish the 3000 series still is you should be fine.
