Compact Dual-Fan GTX 1660 Ti Options
ZOTAC is introducing two compact dual-fan otions for the launch of the GTX 1660 Ti. The Turing-based, RTX-less GPU is NVIDIA‘s most affordable next-generation card yet with a starting MSRP of $279 USD.
Since ZOTAC focuses on compact builds, it is understandable that their initial offering would be compact designs. Unlike other manufacturers who opt for a single-fan design however, ZOTAC chose dual-fan options. This has to do with the fact that they understand airflow in a compact chassis well. Having dual fans allows users to run the video cards quietly on top of having superior cooling performance over single-fan designs.

The introductory ZOTAC models are the Gaming GTX 1660 Ti and Gaming GTX 1660 Ti AMP. The first version measures 173.4mm x 111.15mm x 35.3mm, while the AMP version is slightly larger at 209.6mm x 119.3mm x 41mm.
