    LividXY reacted to BiotechBen in Mixing 2 Pairs of Ram   
    Sell the 8gb sticks, 48gb ram is an unusual amount to have and running very different sticks can cause problems depending on the platform. Additionally, the system will run all 4 sticks at the slower timings/speed of the lesser kit.

    No but really, it depends on the game, resolution, settings, and other components in your system what FPS you can get.

    GTA5, 1080p maxed out. The review is of a 1660Ti but the Super will perform basically the same or maybe 3-5FPS lower.
     
    There's plenty of benchmarks out there from reputable reviewers you can check out that are just a Google search away.

    Gta 5 is not graphical intense game,you can google it but i assume around 100,since 1660 super is great card for 1080p gaming.

    Yeah. If you can find a grey label CX550 (non-M) it's actually slightly better. 
     
    It used to be that you can get a good 80+ Gold PSU for $100 USD, but recently that hasn't been the case.

    If your budget is $75 max then this is the best option I see. At least on Walmart.

    @LividXY If you're still using that "350 Watts" PSU. If you're using the 1660 Super, Not only your system will not be reliable. Your system might BE DAMAGE if you're using 1660 Super. Pre-built makers only put only the wattage enough for the system they're building. So they can earn more money.(limit the upgradibilty so we consumers need to buy a whole new PC from them) Yeah, you should be worried with the "350 Watts" PSU. Put the new PSU will be good. Edit: You should get a another new PSU, Corsair or Thermaltake or anything with 80+ Bronze and the first thing when I see when I search"EVGA W1" is "For how long could a EVGA W1 500W PSU last? Is it really that terrible?"

    The evga w1 series isn't much better and cannot deliver it's rated power safely. I would return it and get a better unit.

    Where can you buy from and which country are you in? This way I could look around for something decent. In the meantime don't use the 1660 in your system tho.

    Yeah, but if you spend more money on a PSU, it will be better down the road. and "more money" I don't mean like 80+ Titanium. 80+ Bronze should just be fine

    Prices are wack right now due to the coronavirus so the lesser known psu's that are good are about the only ones not going nuts in price.

    That 500W EVGA can run easily the 1660 Super. Is it tops in terms of quality no. But no issue running that card with it. It's not like it's an Apevia, Raidmax, Coolmax or some other terrible brand.
