They just jacked the price up to 380
"We listed that a couple of hours ago and it hasn't sold out, yet."Haha newegg don't change.

This is an old thread with a dead deal, why revive it.What a laugh...$380 for a GTX1660.
Those were initially....what $220...and they weren't great then.
This addiction continues.
it was a super, which is better for some tasks than a ti, definitely a better card than a 1660 vanilla.$300... no, $380... now out of stock... for a GTX 1660 (not even ti)
I bought a couple open-box Asus RX5700 Strixes for about $329 early last year. Pretty sad times we live in when $329 cannot even get you what amounts to an entry level gaming card.I remember buying the MSI RX 5700 Mech OC with Free Ghost Recon for $329 and I sold it in a system build with Ryzen 5 3600 .. see the new owner a lot and still love's the card .
Newegg being the greedy bastards they are. Even after AIB price bumps I have seen newegg attach their own 100 premium to all cards lol. The 3070s are always 80-100 or so above amazon pricing when they go in shuffle.shows as $489 wtf i was gonna order one for $300 but of course its not 300 anymore!
I agree - From what I've seen at least BB sticks with MSRP. Haven't seen any markups.Newegg being the greedy bastards they are.

In 2021 I'd call it a low end GPU.Wow.. and out of stock again at $489 from Newegg..(not even a 3rd party seller).. unbelievable.. wtf is original MSRP on a 1660 Super... less than $300 if I remember correctly.. maybe less than $250-275 right??
And apparently someone is buying them up , even at $489.. that is insane to be that hard up for a mid-range GPU
But it is still 2020 in terms of gpus since the 30 series doesn't exist for most people. That being said, I was very happy with my 2060 6gb while I had it. Struggled a little in fs2020 but still playable. Don't think the 1660 super is that far behind it.In 2021 I'd call it a low end GPU.
The market is total garbage right now, but really no GPU exists for most users because even this 1660 is actually very hard to get ahold of. None of that changes the fact that you'll struggle to hold good frame rate in games like cyberpunk 2077 with a card like this. I know people need equipment, but it makes very little sense to buy this card for ~$500.But it is still 2020 in terms of gpus since the 30 series doesn't exist for most people.

Try $229 as the MSRP. Even the 1660ti wasn't over $300. Although of course when companies like MSI put a flashy plastic black and red fan shroud over it, that totally will add $50 to the price.Wow.. and out of stock again at $489 from Newegg..(not even a 3rd party seller).. unbelievable.. wtf is original MSRP on a 1660 Super... less than $300 if I remember correctly.. maybe less than $250-275 right??
Get on the EVGA notify list and you should be able to get a 3060 no problem within a few weeks or try your luck on the Newegg shuffle. Then you can take advantage of the current market yourself and get a really good price for your 1060.Threads like this make me feel very fortunate that I picked up my EVGA 1060 SSC last year for $100 on ebay. It was supposed to be a "placeholder" card while I built my x570 system, but it's not going anywhere for the time being.
is there a way to get notified of the shuffle?Get on the EVGA notify list and you should be able to get a 3060 no problem within a few weeks or try your luck on the Newegg shuffle. Then you can take advantage of the current market yourself and get a really good price for your 1060.
