The 1660 Super should give you a reasonable turn of rendering speed if you're working with Full HD footage, though with 'only' 6GB of video RAM on board, more upmarket RTX-series cards will have a significant edge if you're editing 8K or high frame rate 4K footage. Even cheaper cards are available, but their underwhelming performance means they're just not worth your money. The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super is the lowest we think is acceptable to go in Nvidia's current graphics card line-up. Remember, you'll also need a PC powerful enough to let an RTX 4080 run to its full potential - a top end CPU, and a 750+ watt power supply, not to mention enough space to accommodate the card's huge bulk. Other equally impressive stats include 16GB of GDDR6X memory, running on a 256-bit bus at 22.4Gbps, making for a whopping 736GB/s of effective memory bandwidth. All that means this is going to handle anything you can throw at it, even if you're working in 8K. This will still be a video rendering beast, but its $1,200 MSRP is a little easier to stomach, as is the 320W power consumption. The next rung down down the RTX 4000-series ladder is the RTX 4080.
BUT, with an MSRP of $1,600 (and you'll likely pay even more in reality), plus a colossal 450W power draw, you'll need to be exporting many hours of seriously high-value footage to justify an RTX 4090. Nvidia's RTX 4000-series graphics cards are currently the fastest graphics cards for video editing, with the halo RTX 4090 (opens in new tab) being king of the hill.
