Time for an Upgrade?
Before we get to the benchmarks, a few quick stats.
Wefirst reviewedthe GTX 960 back in January 2015 aiming at the $200-$250 bracket.
Just 27 fps on average, the games is nearly unplayable using the ultra quality preset at 1080p.
Of all the games we’ve benchmarked so far, Fortnite is by far the least demanding.
Metro Exodus is a new and very demanding title.
The GTX 1660 can’t reach a 60 fps average at 1080p with the ultra preset enabled.
We must admit we were expecting the GTX 960 to do quite well in Rainbow Six Siege.
Here the Turing GPU was 81% faster.
Pretty impressive and it really speaks to how well optimized this title is.
At 1080p we’re looking at a 117% performance boost on average.
That’s massive and it means Nvidia were right on the money.
