Report: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660, GTX 1650 Arriving Later This Spring

With the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti now in stores, Nvidia’s attention will turn to revamping the bottom of its product line. There are reports of both a GeForce GTX 1660 and GeForce GTX 1650 headed to market. The GTX 1660 is expected to drop in March, with the GTX 1650 supposedly debuting in April.

Right now, AMD’s stronghold is in the $130 – $200 price bracket. New 4GB RX 570 cards have actually fallen as low as $129 according to Newegg, making them an absurdly good deal, especially with two free pack-in games. The RX 580 is down to $170 in one case, though the nominal price looks to be more like $190.

The GTX 1050 Ti simply isn’t competition for the RX 570. As this review from TechSpot shows, AMD’s RX 570 is, on average, 1.43x faster than the 1050 Ti.

The 1660 and 1650 will be interesting launches because they’ll tell us exactly how serious Nvidia is about taking on AMD’s low-price stronghold. Team Red hasn’t been particularly competitive in the high-end market for the past few years, but Polaris actually has teeth below the $200 price point, and the RX 570 has moved far enough down the stack that it won’t be threatened by a $180 GPU. RX 570 should be in a fairly good position no matter what, while the RX 580 / RX 590 split should allow AMD to target Nvidia’s GTX 1660 with one card or the other.
