NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB
Overview
The GeForce GTX 1660 is the entry point of the 16 series and the cheapest Turing card in this database. It carries 1,408 CUDA cores at a 1,785 MHz boost for 5.03 TFLOPS FP32 and, because Turing runs half precision at twice the shader rate even without Tensor Cores, 10.05 TFLOPS FP16. Its 6 GB of GDDR5 runs at 8 Gbps on a 192-bit bus for 192 GB/s, which is the one place it is meaningfully behind the SUPER version of the same card: the two are arithmetically identical and the SUPER has 75 per cent more bandwidth. Like the rest of the 16 series it has no Tensor Cores and no RT Cores, so there is no INT8 path and no tensor-accelerated half precision, and 120 W with a single eight-pin connector is the whole power story.

Every figure here is dense. The vendor documents no structured (2:4) sparsity mode for this part, so there is no second number to quote.
Dense peak divided by accelerator TDP. Board power only: excludes host CPUs, networking, cooling and facility overhead. TDP for this part: 120 W.
