I have a 1660 6 GB.  Iwent from a 1660 TI to a radeon 5700(which was DOA) to a 1660 6 GB.   

 

The TI rates 10-30 percent higher but in reality on games with the exact same settings, I notice no difference at all. As long as you do 1080 P I think the 1660 is a really good card. Its a good price, good image, good frame rates, decent memory(8gb would be better for the longterm)

 

But I would say to wait a few weeks because the Radeon 5500 is coming out soon and the 1660 super, these things might push down the price of the 1660. The radeon 5700 will probaly surpass the 1600 and might do as well better than the TI so the 1660 will probably go down in price.
