Amazon is pushing out incredible GPU deals leading up to Prime Day on July 11-12 with terrific discounts on cards that can get you VR-ready.
When the GTX 1660 Super launched in 2020, it was a premium GPU with a reasonably serious price point. The latest Early Prime Day Deals have the MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Super at 33% off or $239.99, down from $359.99. You can get one of 2020’s hottest premium GPUs for under $250 when you buy during this event.
As a 6GB card, it offers users everything they need to get VR-ready and consistently achieves 60fps in 1080p ultra mode graphics for most new titles. Known for its quiet cooling and premium design for a budget price, it’s a lighter option than most cards and can run on less than 500w PSUs.

Let’s dive in and see why it’s such a good deal:
- Quiet design: Utilizes MSI’s Zero Frozr technology and heatsink, which can shut off fans while keeping the card cool. This ensures the card can run on less power and cuts down on noise.
- The best budget 1080p gaming card: Consistently runs the latest titles easily in 1080p with 60fps. This card has been benchmarked against top games like Forza Horizon 4, Battlefield V, and Final Fantasy XIV with a consistent 60+ framerate on ultra settings.
- Low power requirements: Cuts budget for your build when you can run a sub 500w PSU and has compatibility for PCIe 3.0 motherboard.
- Can overclock easily: Afterburner software from MSI and tools like Oc Scanner for the super edition make it easy to overclock settings with stability for the performance boost you need.
- Faster memory than a standard card: the 1660 super comes with just 6GB VRAM but a 1785 Mhz boost clock and a memory speed of 14gbps allowing it to compete with more expensive cards.
- Neutral design: The VENTUS design from MSI ensures this card easily fits into nearly any build.
What we think
The GeForce GTX 660 launched at a premium price and has not dipped lower than this sale previously. This GPU punches way above its weight at a 6GB card and can be the perfect inclusion for a budget build. It’s compatible with cheaper power sources and older motherboards and would be a significant upgrade or budget piece for a new build.
If you want consistent 60FPS at 1080p gaming, pick up this early prime day deal for a premium edition graphics card.
