1660 Super?

[ArandomDude71]

I found a 1660 super overclocked:

https://www.amazon.com/Overclocked-Dual-Fan-DisplayPort-Graphics-DUAL-GTX1660S-O6G-EVO/dp/B07ZHWQ81N/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=103X18A55G2Y2&keywords=gtx+1660+super&qid=1575190809&s=electronics&sprefix=gtx+%2Celectronics%2C403&sr=1-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExM1BYMVQ1V04xN1FUJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNTQwNTYwM0M0UFVLTFFSUTlVVSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMTE2NjI0N1VJVlg4MkpJNFdXJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

and i am not sure if this is an actuall 1660 super or is there a gimmick.

probably original:

There's 'GTX1660 Super' in the name of both SKUs, they're both GTX1660 Super. Why you're thinking they're not ? That's usual price for GTX1660 Super also (230$), whereas 300$ for that EVGA SKU is quite high, you can get an RTX2060 for that price.

They say OverClocked and you know a lot of companies have gimmicks of items using the same name but different stats.Thanks for responding.

"GeForce GTX 1660 Super" is the name, "ASUS" or "EVGA" is the brand name and all the other stuff in the name is either:

- additional info (e.g. 6GB)

- info to easily appear in search results (e.g. HDMI, DVI, Displayport)

- marketing fluff/brand naming.

 

The Overclocked/OC, EVO, XC Gaming and that sort of stuff is names EVGA and ASUS (and other brands) attach to a videocard, because they are a certain series from them.

Super is the actual name Nvidia used with different hardware specs than the standards versions. Yes that's dumb
