It works, but not well. Use 'modern' compiles.

Can anyone tell me, based on the reviews today, whether Leela will run well on the GTX 1660 ti?

Well, NPS per $ but also in terms of 'value card.' $800 on a video card is not in my budget. I'm also looking for less power-hungry options, and wondering about how much 3gb vs 6gb ram (with teh 1060) would make a difference. I don't game so I've never bought a serious video card. Or maybe I should ...
