£200 Budget

[Gary*]

I have a strict budget of £200 - what card would you recommend? The only caveat is that it has to be an itx card!

 

[Gray2233]

The best card for that price is the 1660 Super, which luckily has small form factor variants.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER Mini-ITX OC 6144MB GDDR6 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £209.99

Total: £209.99 (includes shipping: £0.00)​

​

What's the rest of your rig, though?

I didn't even know the 1660 super was a thing, I'll check it out.

 

[Gray2233]

It's very slightly slower than a 1660ti for around £50 less.

I second the 1660 super. Cracking card for the dough.

Definitely the best card in that price bracket.

Got to love the strict budget of £200 and then we all suggest a card for more than that.

I guess an extra tenner isn't too bad...

Just added 1660 SUPER (Palit) to my 7 year old system (i5-3570K / 8mb / GTX670).
Great improvement - and get decent quality graphics from Red Dead R 2 (1080P).

Go for it !

Palit 1660 Super is £199 so within budget.

 

[philmo]

If of any use - and it might not be your situation but for my z77-d3h mobo I had to update my BIOS to get the GTX1660 SUPER to work.

Can't really go wrong with the RX590 at that price... It has a slightly higher TDP than the 1660 super but not anything to put you off

 

[Tute]

That RX590 isn't really an ITX card though, it looks pretty close to reference PCB in terms of size?

Sadly AMD have really dropped the ball on ITX cards since the R9 Nano - we have the almost completely non-existent Vega 56 Nano, which isn't sold anymore. Then there's an ITX RX480 that sometimes does the rounds on resellers/ebay but again, are almost impossible to source. Beyond that there's the RX570 ITX variants but you're quite down on power at that point.

Really nVidia are the only one to offer any kind of realistic choice on this front. I'd be going for the 1660 Super above at your budget.
