![Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/4963/385444/5def5712dff3b/Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-1660-Super.jpg)
EARLIER THIS YEAR, Nvidia launched its new GTX 16-series with the GTX 1660 Ti, GTX 1660, and GTX 1650 seeking to join the ranks of the best graphics cards. The lack of ray-tracing hardware is interesting after last year’s RTX 20-series, but it makes sense for the mid-range and lower markets. When Nvidia refreshed the RTX lineup with the Super models, we didn’t expect to see that extend into the GTX range, yet here we are. The GTX 1660 Super now exists, leveraging the same Turing architecture and TU116 GPU.
We’re not saying the card is bad by any means, but it ends up overlapping the GTX 1660 Ti in many respects. It still has the GPU core counts and clock speeds of the GTX 1660, but it gets GDDR6 memory— which was one of the main differentiators between the 1660 and 1660 Ti. Even more curious, the GDDR6 memory is clocked at 14Gb/s, compared to the 12Gb/s speed on the 1660 Ti. Basically, it’s weird to have a lower-tier card that’s both better and worse than an existing higher-tier card. At least the price is lower.

What exactly is an 'AI' PC?
AI, EVERYWHERE, all at once. That, in a nutshell, is what's happening to the computing industry. The PC, inevitably, is not immune. Later this summer, you'll be able to buy a machine that officially qualifies as an 'Al' PC, according to no lesser an authority than Microsoft. But you might be surprised at who's making it.

Intel Raptor Lake Core 19 Instability Problems
THE RACE BETWEEN AMD AND INTEL has heated up in the past few years as Ryzen processors have become increasingly competitive. The amount of headroom for overclocking has shrunk in response, and it seems motherboard vendors may have tweaked settings a bit too aggressively.
