#PCBuilding #Benchmarking #GTX1660Ti - Hry
A Intel i7-3770 is a must in this PC.
My son has an i7-3770 paired with a 1060.
Fantastic CPU still in 2019 / GTX 1060 solid video card for 1080p gaming. Thank you for sharing.
I have a i7 3770 with a 1080ti - Not an "OEM" - But the mobo ("h" series, gigabyte) is actually BELOW the "q" series in most Dell OEM's.

I use a 3770 in a Dell Vostro 470 motherboard I put in a Rosewill Nautilus case. I also use a 1060.
It was nice for once to see the 1660 ti tested with something less than an I9 9900K OC to 5GHz like most of the other reviews I've seen, so thanks.
Yep it's nice to know not only if it bottleneck also how much it does at the resolution you will actually use it.
Its why I love this channel.
Anyone wanna help me out. I’m getting an office pc as well but it brings a 1660 ti with and i7 tenth gen would I get good FPS say warzone?
@@berner2378 I don't know about Warzone, but my girlfriend has a 1660ti and a Ryzen 3600 on the B450 system I built for her. She's getting excellent FPS at 1080p with games like Rainbow Six Siege, Doom Eternal, and Phasmophobia.
@@OlettaLiano thanks so much I just wanted to see if they might benchmark because they also bottleneck a little bit but not too much that it’ll affect my FPS bad
Been watching your videos and decided to build a PC. I'm nearly done with it and I'm psyched!!

LOVE UR VIDS SO MUCH MAN, KEEP IT UP!
Thanks for watching them!
Nice, haha. I was waiting for this one. Even though I knew it'd be pretty similar to the 1070, great video!
Yo... your ad is SICK, I watched it and thats the moment I knew you were the best person EVER!
I put together a gaming rig for my step son out of a 9010 and it has been doing really well. I used 16 gigs of DDR 3 ram and an RX 560. it has the I5 3570 in it and seems really well balanced. He can play pretty much everything on high setting in 1080 and stay at or above the 60 FPS mark. I have been so impressed by it that I am working on a similar set up for my other step son but with a 9020 using an I5 4690.
Always love your PC builds
Thanks for watching them!
My fist rig was a dell optiplex rocking an i7 3770, 16 gb ram, a 500 gb hdd, and a gtx 1070. It was glorious.
Can't we get a consistent fps if we tweek with the settings. Maybe increase the resolution. As always Great video man. :)
@Fetus PC-TECH vsync is trash
@@DrKesa-vk2gx so are those 1% lows
This is a really good comparison to make and I love this channel because it's more realistic than the big CZcamsrs. I built for a friend a Dell Optiplex 7010 with a i7-3770 and an RTX 2060. The reasoning for this was a GPU demanding game such as Dead By Daylight which, on ultra, still runs at ~70-80% usage in game and only ~50% usage on the CPU. Again great tests for most people but look up the game you want to play because the non-optimized titles will suck GPU usage up a lot.
Any problem you encounter with your pc bro?
Just built similar but with a 1060 6gb
I like your Dell Optiplex videos please please make a video on a case swap on a Dell Optiplex motherboard into another case that would be so helpful to a lot of viewers
Thanks for the idea!
The challenge is the BIOS will complain if you change fans because it expects them to spin at a particular speed with a particular voltage, so much of the value of switching cases (using better fans, CPU cooler) comes with the cost of having to hit F1 every time you boot. Also, the power button has a non-standard connector. You may get the board to work with a standard power switch if you get the right pins, but you lose the diagnostic amber flashing on the power button. It's an interesting project, but much of the value of these machines is being able to use the case.
I am so glad you did this video. I've been waiting to see some one do this. Now I'm wondering what to do with my Dell Optiplex 790, i5 2400, 16gb, gtx1060 3gb machine.
How does it perform
Cool vid zach!
Always having awesome benchmarks... I have a DELL optiplex 9010 i5 3550 8gb ram and an RX 570
this is an interesting concept; I dig it :)
Thanks :)
Optiplex with an i7 2600 and a 1070ti because I got it as a gift and can’t afford to buy anything else for it at the moment lol really runs well for me, even though it’s not the most practical.
I think this would be good to update with comparing to budget older i7 oem's or newer, possibly 6th gen budget oem machine upgrades. I've seen some acceptable local deals on 6th gen oem's recently. Maybe show a comparison of 3 levels or so of budget builds finding the sweet spot for new gpu's to not be bottle necked on a budget.
I use an optiplex 390 (i5 2500k/ 16 gig ram) with a Zotac GTX 1070 mini. Works fine with me.
Optiplex 7010 i7 3770 + zotac GTX 1070 mini micron memory. Only temperature high.
Is possible to install gtx 1080 ti mini?
you lie the i5 2500k is not compatible withe the Pc and the pc have a max of 8GB Ram
@@jonas7503 You're the liar. I upgraded my PC taking a risk. Officially it's not supposed to work, but it does as long you update the BIOS.
MysteryK i have tried with A14 Bios and it doesn't work
You can definitely put a GTX 1070 or equiv. in an OEM system if you get one with an i7 (and upgrade the PSU). I've purchased a few in the past with RAM, HDD and Windows installed for under $150 with an i7, typically a 2600 or 3770. Might bottleneck a 1660ti still due to clock speed, but not nearly as badly as that i5.
i rock a rx580 in my optiplex 9010 had to mod it a little bit and super glue a 80mm fan to the side for exhaust for the 580 but its a sleeper beast
why did oyou have to mod a fan onto it? Well actually i guess im asking is that mandatory because ive been looking into getting that very same card but if i have to do the modding stuff then i might change my mind
man you should get some of those Optiplex packed with 4th gen parts and some other prebuilt oem's from manufacturers like HP, some with i5-4440 goes around $100 out there
I’m 13 and I have always admire your builds, might save up to make my own pc
Now ur about to be an adult
@@lilMungo yh almost time
@@rafathussain809 did you save up for the pc?
@@lilMungo I got my job coupla months ago and i almost got enough for a good pc
The bottleneck is because you are playing at 1080p. Great follow up is 1440p and 4k medium and it will be more balanced!
Why would you play 4k on a midrange gpu?
@@imaginarychip4916 Inspired by videos like this:
czcams.com/video/6HP5kLqeGjk/video.html
A lot of youtube videos show 'ultra' settings have a high frame rate cost but little extra quality. So given price of GTX 1070 was around £220 for me on ebay vs £500 for a 1080ti I wanted to play games at 4k 'medium' than 4k 'ultra' due to cost savings. I got myself a nice 4k Samsung TV with 15ms input lag so it's great for games like ghost recon wildlands, tomb raider etc.
you asked the exakt question i did , will it game in any pc or must u go full costum to get all out of the 1666! i got my eyes on that 1663 non ti for the build ill be giving or selling when all parts are in and the 1666 ti for myself ! . good vid zach as always! thx from sweden!
I have optiplex with i7 2600 and it's still runs games at 1080p with relatively old gpu ( GTS 450 )
Samo Hraje I also have an i7 but I have a visiontek video card instead of a gots 250 which I replaced
Nice video dude bro👍👍👍
Thanks bro
@@ZachsTechTurf You're welcome
Thanx dude!
how did you install that after market psu? thought that dell boards had proprietary connections on board? you got a video of how you connected it?
Cna u compare it with the 1060 6 gb with the same cpu?
This comparision should be interesting
I7 3770 and gtx 1660 super oc is a mf beast. I got it all in total for 700 almost a whole rack with 750 watts. Ultra settings every game almost 100 fps every game
Those 1% and 0.1% low figures can be improved if the 3570 is replaced with a 3770 ( since both of them use the same socket ) and the extra amount of threads in the 3770 is definitely gonna bring out the full power of the 1660ti which the 3570 wasn't able to 😊
i have an optiplex 790, with 12gb ram and an i7 2600. I'd say this system would do pretty decent with a 1660ti, but as of now i have a 1060 3gb
thinking about maxing out my ram for this build with 32gb x4 channel. Is it worth it?
I have an I5 2400, with the 1660TI, 14gb of memory, 1TB Sata HDD (i'll probably get an SSD), 600w PSU, i'm shocked it performs perfectly on this MACHINE!! Doom, RE7, Assassins Creed Odyssey, and a few others I've tested out, even on Ultra. And runs perfectly quiet, temperatures stay low as well. Now more CPU intensive games will probably lag a lot. But I have an X and PS4 Pro for 3rd person games, which I don't perfer on PC anyway. Incredible what the OLD CPU can run. Same tower though. ;o) $125 perfect refurb off of ebay. Wouldn't mind trying the 3770 though. Would probably put a lot of new builds to shame. Also I'm using windows 8, because I hate windows 10, it's a resource hog!!
You should start benchmarking "Anthem" it's a great game with great visuals!
Benchmarking Origin games, especially Anthem, is extremely frustrating.
surprised you got the PCIe slot to post. with these cards on the 790
I'd disagree. You should not pair a GTX 1660ti in a Dell OptiPlex/HP Compaq/Lenovo ThinkCentre with a Core i5 or below. A Sandy Bridge i7, on the other hand, should be powerful enough to handle the GTX 1660ti without bottlenecking it.
Here is my rule of thumb for upgrading old OEMs.
i7 -> GTX 1080 non-ti for 1440p or higher, GTX 1070 for 1080p
i5 -> GTX 1060 6 GB
i3 -> GTX 1060 3 GB or GTX 1050 ti
Pentium -> GT 1030
Celeron -> upgrade to at least i3 + GTX 1050 ti.
You obviously didn't watch the video if you think you're disagreeing with me
Zach's Tech Turf haha. I was so confused reading his comment and I was already 30 seconds in to your video. Like dude, are we watching the same thing?
I watched the video. In there, you said that the 1660ti isn't a good fit with your OptiPlex 9010, which in its current configuration (i5-3570), its not a good idea. If you upgrade the i5 to an i7, it should not bottleneck the GTX 1660ti. The price difference between the OptiPlex 790/990 with an i5-2400 and an i7-2600 isn't that big, about $40 difference. If you spend this extra $40 to get the i7, you will get a superior gaming experience.
But yes, I agree that the GTX 1660ti should NOT be paired with any Kaby or worse i5. My secondary PC is a Dell OptiPlex 790, it originally had an i5-2400, which was a great pairing with the RX 480 (basically the AMD version of the 1060 for yall that don't know PC hardware), but ever since I upgraded the CPU to an i7-2600k, the GPU is bottlenecking the CPU.
Also, for any of them PC noobies out there looking for a cheap OptiPlex/ThinkCentre gaming PC, spend the extra to get a i7, its 100% worth it. Its enough to play today's games with ease and will prepare you for the future, when games move on from 4c/4t. You might as well spend the extra $40-60 now instead of waiting and spending $100 later on upgrading your OptiPlex/ThinkCentre.
lx130 same, I was confused too
You must have very large thumbs for such long rules.
So I had a problem. I got an rx 570 for my Inspiron 620 (which I upgraded cpu to i5 2400 and 8gb of dd3 along with a 600w evga power supply) and I get no display to keyboard, mouse, or monitor. I sent the card back as defective, would that be the issue?
I'm wanting to build one of these with a i7 3770k and a 1060 with a 450watt PSU
Got an Optiplex 790 i5 12Gb (70€) plus GTX 1050 ti and it´s quite a beast for the money. Though i got an i9900k 32Gb too (1300€ without graphics), meant to replace it, i still use the Optiplex more in daily work since i use the i9 mostly for rendering. The only thing which sucks is the extremely noisy DVD while booting.
I put a GTX 1080ti mini in my 9010 mt. I replaced the 3770 with the 3770k. 6% bottleneck running in 1080p and no bottleneck in 4k. I paid $1000 total for this on eBay. I have a i7 3770k, GTX 1080ti, 16GB, 240GB raid 0 2x A400 120GB, 1TB HDD, 128GB No name brand SSD & Cooler master MWE 550 for $1000. I scored some kill killer deals.
Does this combination still run games today 60 plus fps ?
Can you bench some core 2 cpu's with some mid range gpu's ex: rx480 or a gt710 etc
I have a oem build with an i5 3470 and I'm thinking about upgrading the 1050 Ti in there to an rx 480 is that possible without getting bottlenecks the whole time?
Zach will this be good combo for money?

Please make a video when you are using a GTX 1050 TI 4G OC in a Dell Optiplex 3020.
Hey Zach I have a pretty good system with i5 4690k but I don't have a graphics card what would you say is a bottleneck for this cpu. Also I have the i5 oc to 4.5ghz
Agreed. I wouldnt go any higher than that
I'd say the 1070 is pushing it honestly I'd stick with the 1060. My 4790k in some games gets bottle neck by my 970 sli setup
okay I really appreciate all the replies but does anyone know if a gtx 980ti would bottle neck
@@guthannight well to be fair the 970s in SLI will outperform a 1070 (at least when the SLI scaling is optimal) Ive seen where a G4560 won't bottleneck a 1070 depending on the game and I believe the 4690k is a good amount more powerful than that.
@@crunchbar777 as you just stated depends on the game. You need to sit down and ask yourself what games do you play and what games do you plan on playing. Every game engine is different.
Thanks for making this video! I agree that the GTX 1660Ti does not belong in an OEM desktop. I would say that a 1060 max is what you should put in one of those though probably only a 1050Ti or RX 570. Could you benchmark the GTX 1660Ti with the Ryzen 3 1200? I was wondering if I should upgrade to the 1660Ti because I have a Ryzen 3 1200 and RX 570 though my 570 is fine for now. With my build I actually get the same Assassin's Creed benchmarks as you do in your OEM/1660Ti benchmarks. Though in battlefield 5 if I have very low ping I get a stable 60fps on medium settings but high settings is only 30-40fps though I think my CPU is bottle-necking the GPU.
Thanks for the suggestion!
The ryzen 3 1200 is a much better cpu imo and shouldnt bottle neck the gtx 1660ti to bad
I recently picked up a refurbished DELL Optiplex 9010 MT i5 w/16gb RAM and 2TB HD.
Along with a GTX 1060 GV-N1060WF2OC-3GD
and likely going to run an EVGA - 600W ATX 12V/EPS 12V 80 Plus Power Supply as my PSU.
Mostly for music and video production.
Any other tips?
Actually im really hope someday we just buy a vga to make our pc have a good performance, a vga which can help cpu workload. Just my hope. :D
Can the 1660 super work with this? I bought one for my Inspiron 620 and it doesn't boot because the motherboard is too old.
Just out of curiosity, how does the i5-3570 compare to a i5-7400? I'm currently running a computer with said processor paired with a GTX 1060 6gb and 16gb of DDR4 2400. I've been pondering as to whether it would make any sense to upgrade to the 1660ti for 1080p60 gaming. On paper, the 35-40% performance gain seems significant enough, but I don't know how much performance I would be losing due to CPU bottleneck.
I don't think a GTX 1660Ti makes sense in any system. Here in the UK you can get a RTX 2060 for just £40 more than a 1660Ti, bear in mind I am referring to the cheapest models of each here and so the ones a budget builder would go for. The 2060 just makes so much more sense, you don't have to use the RTX features if you don't want to but they are there if you ever change your mind.
You should try a budget build with the optiplex 990 it was my first rig
I’ve made at least 8 Optiplex videos man...
Can you retest this but with an i7 2600 or i7 3770? I have an i5 3470 and would like to see if i would benefit from just slotting an i7 in here with maybe the 1660ti.
This is why ZTT is my no 1!
But I must know. What Cpu do you recommend for it?
*what MINIMUM CPU doesn't bottleneck the 1660Ti?
Change the CPU with e3-1230 v2 from aliexpress very low tdp 69w perfect for the Dell. I'm going to buy a sff Dell and put the xeon in with a 1050ti LP. Great video 👍
I’ll have to try this in my 9020 w 4770
Hey i have a i7 4770k and gtx 970x2 (sli). and 8gb of ddr3 ram, if i dont want to upgrade cpu and gpu, would the best option for me be to upgrade motherboard so i can use ddr4 ram ? btw i love your videos !, wished they was like 10-12 minutes tho cant get enough :D
What would you recommend for an optiplex 990 with i7 260p processor? I was thinking about getting a GTX 1050 ti? But.. I was wondering if a 1060 would of fine...
I have one question: I need to build pc for my friend with budget 350$, what to do go with ryzen 3 2200G or i5 2nd or 3rd gen with GTX 1050/1050ti?What you think?
2200g and rx570
Would a dell optiplex 7010, i5 3470, 16gb ram and a GTX 1650 super work ????
I have a similar build (but 3rd gen i7 instead) but game in 4k medium so no bottleneck from cpu!
Where did you buy that OEM desktop?
i want to know if i can put MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1650 in the same case or not
if a buy the new psu what will i do about for say the weird version of the 24pin???
I saw the title and clicked immediately....
that's a very good video good thing a changed my cpu from i5 4430 to i7 4790 so I can get an 2060 in the near future
you should have used i7 dell optiplex with that card, i paired one with gtx1080 and it works very well.
Facts mine too . I have a dell optiplex with i7-4790 and rtx 2060
I've got a Dell optiplex 9020 with a Intel core i7 4770 what graphics card do you think will work best for me
I have the same optipex. Core i5 3470. Should I get this GPU? Or should i go for a 1050ti?
The hp z400 has a xeon 4 cores 8 threads 12mb cashe and a 4 gb ddr 3 ram and can upgrade upto 24 gb ram storage and im gonna put a 1050 in that and upgrade the ram to 16 gb and the budget will be around 350$ and the xeon competes a new i7 is that worth it?
Could I put a 1660ti in a dell xps 8930 with a i7 9700? The graphics card i have now is 1050ti
What about gtx 1080 Ti? I'm planning to install this on Optiplex i7 4790 MT. Please give me some advice?
bro i have a question. i have a case similar to this pc case. Now i was wondering if that case fan at the rear of the case was set as intake or exhaust.
Bopon Roy
I believe mostly it's put as an exhaust. You can just feel it. I have a shitty case. I just disconnect the fan and leave the case open. Because it's too loud.
Should’ve went for a i7 3770 or i7 4790 you can pair a gtx 1080 or even rtx 2060 with that cpu and it’ll be smooth sailing
was gonna get this card but in my country its 400$ so yeah i got the RX 580 happy af
So can you try this with a higher end EOM, or basically does it mean tha if you want a higher end system with a 1070, 1070ti like performance, you should do new parts build?
Cuz the older price to performance Cpus don't cut it for higher end GPUs anymore
model/specs of the optiplex please
How about Dell Optiplex 9020 Tower PC Core i7 4TH Gen 16GB RAM 256GB SSD Hard Drive Win 10? Would like to know if a swamp of gpu to gtx 1660 would be good
Will an rtx 2060 single fan gpu fit into the dell optilex 7020 mini tower.? ( NOT the sff tower )
With a pci riser/extender a 2060 will fit in a sff watch linuses video
Hi i have a Intel 6402P and a GTX 960 2gb and i want to upgrade my GPU what GPU should i use.
OK, so this GPU doesn't do well with the i5 3570, but what about i7 4790, or even 4790k? Will there be less bottleneck with a superior processor in an Optiplex?
For the i7 4790 you need the 9020 but that doesn't have atx. Go with the 9010 that is using atx and you can do a cpu up to an i7 3770.
I have a dell Optiplex 7010 core i5 3.2ghz 8GB ram and 500 GB. Also it’s small form factor. Getting a gtx 1050ti low profile 4GB
How ho you feel about the 1660TI with an OptiPlex 7050 with I5-7600 with external PSU?
Not Fair...You Have an Upgraded Power Supply. Do You Know if the Stock Power Supply Has the Eight Pin Connector for the Card?
Zach should i buy a hp z400 pc and upgrade the ram and hdd storage and some more stuff?
I recommend the newer hp z420. I ran a gtx 1070 in it using a 2x6 pin to 1x8 pin adapter. They are really good value! See my vid... czcams.com/video/aql35FbnSlg/video.html
does this card require uefi or it can work on legacy bios ?
xeon 1230v2 runs almost everything at 1080p, about 45 euros.
i tried a 960 gtx and it runs amazing
I really need help! Can I put a GTX1650 into a dell optiplex 9010 mini tower?
Found one with an i7-4790, 8 GB Ram, 500 GB SSD, all for $200 and planning on putting a 1660 ti into it
I don't understand the 1% low etc etc when they show the results....do help
I would do a video upgrading to an i7 3770
Dell optiplex builds are the best
Agreed
What graphics card would you all reccomend for a Optiplex 790MT with a i7 2600? With budget not being a concern. What other cpu is compatible and considered a upgrade for my pc? This will be my first pc build. Any useful info will be appreciated.
Zack,
I have both Dell Optiplex 9010 and Dell XPS 8920.
What do you think if I put this GTX 1660Ti into XPS 8920 (i5-7400 cpu, and 460W GPU)?
Should work but on the safe side 500watt is.better
would that gpu be to much for a 7010 optiplex with a i7 3770 cpu?
What ram can I buy for the same optiplex want at least 8gn
i still have rx 580 in mine that should run just fine no bottleneck even on a 3330 cpu at 3ghz
