So, I WILL NOT pay the prices for the latest and greatest video cards.
I'll get that right out of the way.
I have seen an EVGA 1660Ti XT Black up for sale at $250 shipped.
Is it even worth it? I've seen where the 1660Ti is about on par with the 1070's which seems like are selling for more.
I was planning on upgrading a system that's currently running a GTX970 and thought that the 1660 would boost performance?
Honestly it would seem like the 1660Ti's should be more in the $150 range but with the video card market now, it doesn't surprise me that they are still over the 200 mark.
Kind of up in the air on this though.
Any insight or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
