So, nVidia is launching its latest (and cheapest) card in the 12nm series of cards. The GTX 1660, like the GTX 1660 Ti before it, has no RTX. However, it does let you play Witcher 3 on 60FPS+ on 1080p for $220. This new card beats all other AMD 5xx cards in its price range, and that includes the RX 590. It consumes less power, produces less heat, and less noise too. Considering the good price and stellar 1080p performance, this card ought to be a winner.
AMD’s Radeon VII has arrived! All hail the Radeon VII! But does it belong in our build chart?
So, the new RTX 2060 was revealed during CES, and now the benchmarks are out. Long story short: GTX 1070 to GTX 1080 performance for $350. So, you get last year’s $500 performance and save $150. That is pretty good! In fact, I would say that (due to its price) this card is probably going to be nVidia’s most popular RTX 20XX card. We are not all oil barons, nVidia!
It is not going to be easy to be kind to AMD for this one: The 590 is a refreshed 580, which itself is a refreshed 480.

November 2017 was the last time we updated the GPU descriptions. We compared cards to the Titan XP, and had benchmarks for WoW and Witcher 3.
Now that it is November 2018, I have updated the base comparison GPU and the reference games.
AMD has released two new 2nd-generation Threadripper CPUs (the TR 2920X and the TR 2970WX).
There are new high-end CPUs available from Intel, and new low-end CPUs available from AMD. And we’ve taken a look at both!
After much teasing and waiting, the reviews for nVidia’s RTX cards are now available, which means we can finally properly evaluate how the RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti stack up against the prior generation.
