EVGA, Zotac or Gigabyte 1660S?

Kerbalino

Hello everyone,

 

I am currently unsure from what manufacturer to buy a 1660 Super from. I currently have my eyes on 3 GPUs:

 

Zotac Gaming GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER AMP

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER OC

EVGA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER SC Ultra Black

 

While I personally lean towards the Zotac one, I have heard some bad stuff about them (kinda bad customer support, parts are rather cheap). Meanwhile, EVGA seems to have a great warranty and support, but it's hard for me to get hold of in my location. That only leaves out Gigabyte, about which I don't know a lot.

 

Do you guys have any feedback or suggestions I could take between those? Thanks in advance!

Gigabyte makes solid cards.

 

I would go EVGA all the way if you can get your hands on one.

Thanks for the replies! I kinda find it unfortunate that the EVGA one isn't available in my area. The Gigabyte does seem like a solid choice.

 

Are there some major offsets for Zotac and their cards? In my personal preference, they all visually look the best for me when it comes to the mid-range.

Personally, i wouldn't buy anything from zotac. Not even if it were a Zotac 1080 ti for $200.

 

Gigabyte is not to bad, imo Zotac and gigabyte are both cheap brands, but if i had to pick one (Between these 2) it would be Gigabyte. They Make some solid cards and would probably rank them best for budget.

 

EVGA would be the best way to go in terms of "Brands" They make really good cards, offer great support & warranty. You might pay a few $$ more but it's well worth it for a card that's better built.
