GTX 1660 super underperforming

[CosminSCG]

Hello guys . I have a small ish inconvenience with my gtx 1660 super recently bought.  It is underperforming idk , like  10% shower then expected in synthetic benchmarks. The GPU doesn't thermal throttle . It stays between 1800-1900 mhz at 74-75°C , memory at 7000 mhz , 14000 effectively. It doesn't have artefacts, it doesn't crash . 

I reinstalled the drivers with ddu in safe mode , nothing. Fresh install of Windows, nothing . I have no background apps . I thought that it would be the PCI e 2.0 .on further research it doesn't affect a gtx 1080 , so my 1660 should be fine .

My pc 

Gigabyte GTX 1660 super oc

I7 4770 

16 gb ram ddr3 1600 mhz cl11

Asus h81m-r PCI e 2.0 (latest bios)

Patriot p210 ssd

Psu cooler master masterwatt lite 400 .

I have a passmark screenshot. In user benchmark everything is good except the GPU that has a 52 percentile compared to the expected 72 percentile. An overclock would give like extra 400 points in passmark . (+140 core clock , +900 memory, 123% power limit ) I've run out if ideas.

Have you checked bios for clock speeds and temps?

Nearly 1900 mhz at 75°c

You can only really compare results using the same cpu/ram as yourself.

I wouldn't be surprised if the lacking 10% is due to your older platform, plus anything over 60th percentile i would slap straight in to the average performance category.

If you have 3Dmark give Firestrike a run, a 4770 and 1660 Super should score around the 12k mark.

Thx for the answer. I was expecting a bottleneck with my platform . I just don't expect it to happen in synthetic Tests
