Need for Speed Heat
In The Need for Speed Heat, we are running the game at 1080p with the highest in-game setting of “Ultra.” In this game, we have some closer performance between the video cards. You can see that the overclocked ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti O6G OC video card is right on the heels (basically the same performance) as the default XFX Radeon RX 5600 XT THICC II Pro performance. It’s so interesting that in some games an overclocked GTX 1660 Ti can reach the stock performance of a factory overclocked Radeon RX 5600 XT video card!
Overclocking the ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti has improved performance by 10% in this game. The overclocked XFX Radeon RX 5600 XT is only 9% faster than the overclocked ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1660 Ti in this game.
At 1440p we had to lower the game to “High” settings from ultra. However, this allowed playable performance and overclocking improved performance by 12%, the highest performance advantage out of any game.
