What customers say about "Features"
MSI GeForce GTX 1660Ti Ventus XS 6G OC Graphics Card 6 GB GDDR6
  • The overclockimg features using afterburner software are easy to setup and offer some advanced options for experienced tuners.
  • Great price for features. Good card.
  • Dual fans keep things cool and quiet.
  • The fans are quiet and the size is great.
  • It is a very capable card but the fans are quite audible and do not have an idle-off feature.
MSI GeForce GTX 1660Ti Armor 6G OC Graphics Card 6 GB GDDR6
  • Fan noise is not bad if it is set below 50%.
  • Comes with a backplate (although is plastic) but this offers less strain on the PCI-Lane since it weighs less.
  • Very compact card - much smaller than my previous GTX 1060 6GB.
  • I was also worried about the dual fans on this but noise is next to nothing.
  • The card's fans switch off when idle so is silent until the temperatures start to soar and even after hours of playing, I can barely hear them at all.
