Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop run Blender?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Laptop clears the minimum bar for Blender but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 1030 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the ultra preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.

Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the ultra preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Comfortable — around 639 FPS on high.
At 4K
Around 371 FPS on high — genuinely viable.
VRAM headroom
At 6GB you are under the 8GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 1030 FPS at 1080p, 639 FPS at 1440p and 371 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the ultra preset at 1080p.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
