Ballsy B&H Photo is trying to sell GTX 1660s for $260 on Black Friday, so here are the graphics card deals I recommend instead

pcgamer.com:

Black Friday sales are an excellent chance for you to snag an awesome gaming PC or a new monitor, all with a healthy discount on the usual price. Unfortunately, it's also an opportunity for retailers to try and shift old stock, especially junk that's been sitting around in their warehouses for years.

So while hunting for a good deal on the latest graphics cards, I spotted this jaw-dropping 'deal' at B&H Photo: Asus TUF GeForce GTX 1660 Super OC for $260, bar a cent, with 'Instant Savings' of $60. This is a graphics card that was released by Nvidia in October 2019, so it's over four years old.

But it gets better. The launch MSRP for the 1660 Super was $229, so not only is the listed price nuts in today's market, it would have been too expensive back in 2019. Of course, it could well just be a mistake by B&H Photo, just something that has been shoved on to its website without being checked properly.

Anyway, despite the GTX 1660 Super being pretty good for its time, there are far better choices to spend $250 to $300 on in the Black Friday sales.

As the budget baby of the RDNA 3 family, the RX 7600 faces a lot of competition. Not just from Intel and Nvidia, but from AMD's previous generation of cards too. Not the most exciting of GPUs but competent enough at what it does.

Let's start by looking at something $20 cheaper than that 'Super bargain', namely AMD's cheapest model in its RNDA 3 desktop portfolio. The Radeon RX 7600 is a nice little GPU, with decent (rather than amazing) 1080p performance. Compared to the GTX 1660 Super, though, it will be roughly twice as fast in
