2GB GDDR5 GeForce GTX 660
The MSI N660 TF 2GD5/OC is a desktop graphics card built on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600 Series architecture. It delivers 960 CUDA cores with a base clock of 1033MHz and a boost clock of 1098MHz. The card connects through a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot and provides 2GB of GDDR5 memory across a 192-bit interface. Output options include one HDMI, one DisplayPort and two DVI connectors.
Suits 1080p gaming on DirectX 11 titles
This card fits builders upgrading an older system or assembling a budget 1080p rig for DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.2 games. The 2GB frame buffer and 192-bit bus handle medium texture settings in many older releases. Users targeting modern AAA games, higher resolutions or DirectX 12 features should consider a newer architecture with more memory bandwidth.
2GB frame buffer for medium 1080p settings
The 2GB GDDR5 buffer running at 6008MHz effective clock gives comfortable headroom for 1080p gaming at medium detail in DirectX 11 era titles. At higher resolutions or with high-resolution texture packs the 192-bit bus and 2GB capacity become limiting factors. Multi-monitor productivity works across the four outputs but gaming across multiple screens will exhaust memory quickly.

Questions about this item
Does my motherboard need a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot for this GTX 660 to run?
Yes, the card uses a PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface and requires a matching slot on the motherboard.
Can I keep my older DVI monitor and still use the HDMI and DisplayPort outputs on this card?
The card provides two DVI ports, one HDMI port and one DisplayPort, so you can connect a legacy DVI display alongside newer screens.
How can I verify the 960 CUDA cores and 1098 MHz boost clock are active after installing the drivers?
Open the NVIDIA Control Panel or a tool like GPU-Z; both will report the CUDA core count and the current boost clock under load.
