Hello,

 

I just bought a used 1660 and it seems to be underperforming a lot. I had a r9 280X and it performed better than this 1660, which shouldn't be the case. GTA Online ran at about 30-40 fps on max settings 1080p and i got a Heaven Benchmark score of 1663. These are with a overclock of +120 on the core and +400 on the memory.

 

My specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 AF

MOBO: Asus Steel Legend B450M

GPU: MSI GTX 1660 Armor OC

RAM: 1x 8Gb Vengeance LPX (clocked at 3200 mhz)

PSU: Corsair VS550

Storage: 128Gb M.2 SSD and 1Tb Hard Drive

It looks as if as i just ran it as i just sold my 2080 super (since 3000series is nearly here figured ill ofload it now and get a little less than i paid for it)  and got this card and i got a score of 3200 at 1080p and 1440p i got 1862. Have you removed the old AMD drivers ? I have the same card MSI GTX 1660 Armor OC
