Gigabyte GTX 1660 Ti Gaming OC 6G Review – worth £300?

Here, we take a further look at the impact of our overclock, looking at the increased temperatures, acoustics and power draw.

Overview

Considering how – dare I say – overkill this triple-fan cooler is for a GTX 1660 Ti, it is not really a surprise that it deals with the extra heat from our overclock without breaking sweat. Temperatures did rise, but only by 2C, and with noise output peaking at 40dB, this is still a whisper-quiet card.

Power consumption increased the most, up to 214W – taking it past the GTX 1070. Considering how this sample was almost on par with RTX 2060 when overclocked, however, I still don't see that as much of an issue at all.
