Why is my 1660 Super GPU performing poorly?

Asked By CuriousGamer92 On

Hey everyone! I just ran a benchmark on UserBenchmark, and it shows that my GPU performance is below average. I have a GTX 1660 Super, and I even followed an overclocking guide that was suggested, but it didn't seem to help. I'm attaching a link to my benchmark results here: [User Benchmark Result](https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/70962663#DRIVE). I would really appreciate any help or advice you can offer to improve my GPU's performance. Thanks a lot!

Honestly, I'd suggest ignoring UserBenchmark—it's known for being pretty biased and unreliable. Instead, try using 3DMark for benchmarking and compare your results with other setups that have similar specs. You could also just play games to see if your frame rates match up with what you'd expect based on YouTube benchmarks. If you're gaming, install MSI Afterburner to monitor your GPU's usage and make sure it's running close to 100% during games; that means it’s working optimally!

Yeah, you should definitely check if your GPU is functioning properly without overclocking first. It could have gotten messed up during the OC process. I also recommend using Superposition for benchmarking instead of UserBenchmark and see how you compare with other systems running a Ryzen 5 3600 and a GTX 1660 Super. Good luck!

Stay away from UserBenchmark; I’ve heard a lot of negativity about it. Focus on more reliable tests like Superposition instead. And remember, if you had the same bad performance without overclocking, maybe it's a hardware issue instead of just the OC settings!
