1660ti does 507 H/s with XMR and 30+ MH/s using 60-70 watts for Ethash.

Even if it does that, a rx 570 can be bought for $100 and the 1660ti is around $350. What the hell.

The 1660 is $220.

The 1660ti is $279.

Avoid bullshit variants or paying for markup.

A 2060 is $350.

A P106-100 is around $100 if you are looking for cheap used GPUs.

There isn't a point in mining ETH right now, better off mining another coin and exchanging it into ETH if you want to accumulate it.

If you really only want to mine XMR; sure get an AMD GPU.

You talk as if there is a choice for amd miners. Every website says eth still the most profitable popular coin using amd gpus. Now if you say nvidia users then I agree with you and already posted many times if mining with a nvidia gpu then there is no point even thinking about eth but the funny thing is you posted the 1660ti hashrate for xmr and eth as it made any sense using it to mine them.

And by the way saying "1600 series Nvidia GPUs are significantly better than everything else. )" is also a misleading title, amd polaris still the best price performance and if you meant that is better in the sense of being better than everything else then where does the 2080ti stay? So one or the other way you are deluding yourself or the people or both with that statement.

Your taking a single line out of context.

agreed that both the 1660 and 1660ti are excellent mining cards, at least for everything but Ethereum/XMR. They do OK in ethereum AMDs still hold XMR throne. I doubt we'll see anything better than 1660ti. I assumed something was in the works as nvidias "Mining GPU" however the crash left a sour note in there mouths. Doubt we'll ever see mining GPU from nvidia again.

It was never a good idea to use the nerfed GPUs that were targeted for mining. It is always better to retain the possibility of reselling GPUs to gamers in the future. This is the best aspect of the 1660s, or 1660tis as they are mainstream Gaming GPUs.

Nvidia's stock price only took a dive with the release of the RTX 2000 series GPUs. As Ray tracing is generally held to be irrelevant to gamers and is useless for miners; the 1600 series should resolve this problem.

Show me the numbers for how AMD polaris has the best price performance.
