I've been looking at the 1660, 1660 SUPER, and 1660ti cards from MSI, EVGA, GIGABYTE, and Zotac. I am currently running on a 1080p 60hz monitor (although i'm probably going to be upgrading to 1440p in the future) and wanna know which card would be best suited for max settings on everything, and which brand offers the best card in the model series. I'm fairly new to all this tech stuff so just wanted to know.
Also, if I bought a 1660, 1660 super, or 1660ti, would a 500w power supply be enough to support either factory overclocked GPU's or manually overclocked GPU's? I'm thinking a 10% overclock if i get a manual overclock card.
Thanks in advance!

gtx 1650 and rx 570 can run most AAA games at 1080P 60fps with high settings. Even at ultra, those two cards can maintain frame rate around 30-35fps very playable! Those only cost around $150. Those are true budget 1080P card. The pixel fillrate handle resolution. gtx 1650 has like 50gpixel/sec and rx 570 is 40gpixel/sec. Even PS4 can run games at 1080P. PS4 only has 25gpixel/sec. So gtx 1650 and rx 570 are much more capable at handling higher resolutions. You can even play older games at 4k without compromising performance.

I have an RX 470 paired with an i7-4790 non-K and let me say that this thing runs MOST games I play on 1080p over 60 fps, with high settings going over 80-90 going as high as -( I go high preset because I want more fps but mostly because the ultra settings hurt my eyes like from Mass Effect Andromeda and Far Cry Primal/5) bought it 3 years ago 200 dollars, no regrets!

I'm really surprised my home country seems to be the only one in the world where we actually pay for electricity, seeing all these AMD recommendations. I don't like Nvidia's pricing, but if you live in Europe, count in power consumption and keep the card for more than 2 years and use it for a few hours daily, there is no AMD card cheaper than Nvidia's alternatives.

I was wondering if they discussed buying the RX 590, 1660Ti, 1660 Super, or 1650 Super. I am leaning towards buying the RX 590 at the moment, but the 1650 Super looks like a contender, as well as the 1660 Super and very recently released RX 5600 XT. I wondered if the 1660 Super and RX 5600 XT are overkill for 1080p gaming though.

GTX 1060 6gb im running everything on High-Ultra at 60fps and its cheaper than the 1660. Your advice is good on the -optimum choice-, but not when people want to know whats the cheapest.
In terms of power and frames per second at 1080p, and price per point of performance, the 1060 6gb is by far a better, cheaper winner.

Instead of the rtx2060 get the rx 5600xt it is close if not the same power as the rtx card and it costs around 40 to 50 dollars cheaper.
