GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (móvel) vs GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel): Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (móvel)

2019

Why buy it

  • Draws 80W instead of 115W, a 35W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel) across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • Older hardware, 8 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in newer AAA releases.

GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel)

2019

Why buy it

  • 0.7% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).

Trade-offs

  • 43.8% higher power demand at 115W vs 80W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel) is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 0.7% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 5.4% in PassMark G3D (10,676 vs 10,128), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel) is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack and 30 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That still leaves it as the safer long-term option on hardware alone.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce RTX 2060 (móvel) makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
