Benchmark Inconsistancies from 1660Ti & 1660Super reviews.

[junetro]

I was curious as to how the 1660 Super compares to the 2060, for this I looked at the 1660Ti video.

 

The only common benchmark was Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 1080p Highest, however all the numbers are substantially lower in the 1660Ti video across all cards, AMD & Nvidia. Was this benchmark at a higher res, settings different, or has the game really been optimised that significantly since February.

 

I tried searching the forum but had no luck.

Gonna chalk it up to nine months of Driver optimizations, since a 5 FPS difference isnt a substantial difference

Could also be tested on a different CPU... Would explain everything quite well.

I was trying to see if they veer listed any bench specs, but neither video did. However, I would have to assume both test beds were using 9900k's to minimize any CPU bottleneck at 1080p, and to get the most out of a GPU. Since I couldnt say for sure one way or the other, I made an assumption based on the fact that almost every reviewer uses a 9900K for GPU gaming tests.
