What does this comparison mean?

The 5060 substantially lifts benchmark throughput over the 6GB 1660 Super, while moving to 8GB. The older card's original budget role explains why this is a common upgrade question.

GTX 1660 Super 6GB has 6GB and RTX 5060 8GB has 8GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.

The two GPUs in context

GTX 1660 Super 6GB

The 1660 Super's faster GDDR6 memory sharpened an already useful 1080p design. It stands out as a well-judged late GTX refresh, with a clearer identity than a simple clock-speed revision.

RTX 5060 8GB

The RTX 5060 offers Blackwell features in a mainstream 8GB card, but that memory size remains its central limit. It is too recent for a settled legacy rating, so this score chiefly reflects its launch role and measured reception.

How the figures are compared

Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage above compares the higher model average with the lower one; the score scales every model against the fastest GPU in the current dataset, which scores 100. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS, and the percentage may change with the benchmark dataset.
