Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660Ti Gaming OC 6G

Nvidia’s new GTX 1660Ti is meant to replace the outgoing GTX 1060 card at the popular mid-tier price level. Unlike the previous generation, Nvidia is not shipping its own ‘Founders Edition’ model. While a few die-hard Nvidia fans might be on the out, this leaves add-in board partners something close to free reigns to make their own spin on it. So what has Gigabyte done with it? How about a 90MHz factory overclock right out of the box? Add in a triple fan cooler and a huge 200W max power limit to take advantage of it, and you might be able to push it to the max. Let’s see how that works in practice!

Cooler Master SK650

Do you enjoy the tactile feel of mechanical switches but find the height of the keys too high? For some people, this extra height can be uncomfortable after a while and even cause wrist pain after a long gaming session.

Well, thanks to Cooler Master’s new low-profile keyboard, the SK650, this can be a thing of the past. The SK650 has been designed with low-profile Cherry MX Red switches and coupled with extra slim keycaps which lowers the height of the keyboard and eliminates the need for a wrist rest.
