Just got my GTX 1660 Ti from Newegg!

Does that particular card have a passive fan mode, or does the fan always spin even when the card is idle?
On default, the fan is at 33% on idle but it is barely audible.Does that particular card have a passive fan mode, or does the fan always spin even when the card is idle?
That's a great deal. The 1660 Ti is the perfect card for HTPC.Mine is on the way. For $23 including shipping to step up from the 1060 I put in my htpc over Christmas, how could I not?
My new video is up:
Which was my thought, but it's a triple thickness card. Many only have space for a two slot cooler.I find these types of videos very informative without all the pointless chatter. Looks like a very solid gaming card at 1080p. Some of the games there was some consistent spikes in frame times which I found interesting (Metro Exodus was one). For Turing this is the best bang per Buck card in my opinion. For an SFF system this option would be hard to pass up.
I'm on Mini-ATX, so the triple slot was not a problem.Which was my thought, but it's a triple thickness card. Many only have space for a two slot cooler.
EVGA also do a two-fan, full length double-slot variant, part number 06G-P4-1267-KR. Confusingly, that model is called the XC Ultra whereas the two triple-slot single-fan variants are the XC and the XC Black (the former being clocked a bit higher than the latter). Looks like the shit naming convention sickness is catching!Which was my thought, but it's a triple thickness card. Many only have space for a two slot cooler.
Did it happen to come with a 6pin to 8pin adapter in the box?

Aye, it seems like EVGA's double-fan, two slot coolers for Turing cards are excellent. I have a 2070 with a two-fan, two slot cooler and it's incredibly quiet and cool. Very impressed.This is the one I just got. Very impressed so far. Specs say 1860mhz boost clock but I've seen it hit 1935 and 1950. Nice and quiet, highest temp so far is 65c and the fans literally blowing cool air out the ends.
And it plays minesweeper at 4k with software ray tracing enabled @ 1500fps
I've owned mostly Evga cards for the last decade. My 1060ti oc stayed at good temps but the fans were a bit loud. This new card is literally silent and it's case less. The mobo is sitting on top of it's box
