The Geforce GTX 1660 and the 1660 Super continue to be competent options for playing the latest games at FHD resolution without major performance hiccups. These graphics cards were launched with Turing technology back in 2019 as a low-cost alternative to the RTX 2060 lineup. These GPUs sold a bunch thanks to their insane price-to-performance ratio. Even to this date, they can play the latest AAA-quality games like Starfield without breaking a sweat.
However, none of these graphics cards will be able to play the new Bethesda Space Explorer at its highest settings. Instead, a mix of medium to high settings would be an educated guess for the title.
Thanks to Bethesda, we got to test the game early. In this article, we will list out the best graphics settings combination for the GTX 1660 and the 1660 Super to help you fine-tune your Starfield experience.
