Hey, currently Centrecom is currently having a Boxing day sale and included are the

  • Gigabyte RX 590 Rev 2.0 ($289)
  • Gigabyte GTX 1660 Super ITX ($330)
  • MSI Aero GTX 1660 Super ITX ($339)

So with mainly temps on my mind, is it worth getting either 1660 Supers or stick with 590?

 

NOTE: I got a CM MWE White 80+ 550W PSU inside a ATX case, so while it may be considerable for the 1660 it might pose a problem for 590.

I would go with any of the above 1660 super, it’s faster than 590 plus it’ll definitely be cooler (590 usually is quite hot card)

I'd pay more for the 1660S' extra speed and feature, but both are decent choices

Why is that exactly? MSI recommended PSU is at least 450W.

It’s not only about how many watts it can deliver but also about quality of the watts. White rating is ... not great saying it softly. You should consider changing it.
