Premier power without the pricetag,
As a very picky gamer, jags, jumps, and framerate drops, mean a lot to you. They haunt your life and can ruin an otherwise good experience in an alternate reality. The only drawback to this is that a good graphics card costs a pretty penny. When most people consider computers they consider an extra two-hundred dollars to be an incredible amount of money (never bring up the GTX 590), but that is what this card, considered an entry level card by most, stands at for the cash. Is it worth it?
For the price the performance is invaluable.
Many less picky gamers would probably say it runs all of their games flawlessly. Again, for the picky gamer, it doesn’t quite do that. I switched from SLI GTS 450s to this single card, and it outperforms them, but still has some hiccups (or many, depending on the game) at full 1080p with Anti Aliasing and SSAO on full. However, all of my games (even Dragon Age 2 now that it is patched) run at or near an acceptable 30 Frames Per second. In fact you are actually getting, with this superclocked version, a product that nearly performs as well as its +100$ superior, the 570, it usually falls within a 10% margin. This is a premium card for the budget gamer. It will run, and run well, most all games with stunning visuals. This isn’t the opus that the GTX 590 is, but it doesn’t cost $700+ either.
I highly recommend it, and would even recommend you SLI it down the road to outperform (theoretically) a GTX 580. Just make sure your powersupply can handle it. Many don’t have the 2x six pin connectors.

|EVGA GTX 560 TI,
Very nice card. I have owned a few EVGA cards, and am very happy with these. Running dual GTX 560 TI, and it plows through BC2 like butter. Seems to run cool, stable, and quiet. Amazon is a great place to purchase from too…card showed up in 3 days! after I placed my order.
**Edit
After having both cards in a few days, I am really impressed. In BC2 I am running everything maxed out, and getting 100fps.
I did have to use EVGA precision, to set a fan profile, and raise the speed of the fans. The auto fan sucks. My comp is air cooled, and the cards have hit 70c in game. Idle about 30c. Happy with that!

|One SWEEEET Video Card With All The Bells and Whistles, Lifetime Warranty, All Good!!!,
This review is going to get a bit technical, but not really heavy duty technical stuff about the nVidia Fermi cards, just some basic rocket science with THIS particular nVidia card, and I hope you all find it worthy of reading; I’ll try and make it interesting with some practical applications of the science I’m talking about.
First and foremost this is an EVGA video board, and I cannot say enough about EVGA the company, their tech support, and their place in the manufacturer’s championships at No.1, and I think that is not even debatable, it’s factual. With the ONLY Lifetime Warranty in its class for this type of video card, the EVGA 560Ti SuperClocked video card is factory overclocked all right, but there’s still room up at the top for even higher pursuits, which I’ll describe in full in just a second. But first some of those techno-babbles that I hinted at earlier:
1) The 560 Ti series is the first video card from EVGA/nVidia to use the famed GF114 Processor (GPU)chip, which is an all new architecture with many new features
2) The GF114 CPU is cut on 40nm technology, which means it’s lighter and smaller and able to achieve very high clock cycles because it’s easier to keep cool, among other interesting features
3) With 137GB/sec bandwidth, a 256-bit bus, 384 Unified Shaders, and 1024MB of DDR5 VRAM (MLC memory to be specific) this card yields 30.7 GigaPixels for its pixel fillrate, and 61.4 GTexels for its texture fillrate, on a 32 ROPs PCI-E 16X bus interface: all this means is that it’s incredibly fast at rendering scenery and game action is blinding fast, and all you have to do is plug it in and give it a 16X bus PCI-E slot and you’re Golden!
4) It supports DirectX 11.0/10.0/SM5.0 out of the box without drivers, and with 1950 Million transistors is one of the most dense and compact video cards in its base board construction of all the Fermi nVidia cards at any price point
5) The 560 Ti SC is a “compact” form factor video card, therefore it fits into places which the large, and bulky 12″+ nVidia cards and even larger ATI video boards cannot squeeze, so you get a lot of video card power in a small form factor of just less than 11-inches, a very good thing for Mini-ATX and small form factor case builders
6) With Base Default clocks of 900Mhz Core, 1053Mhz Memory, and 1800Mhz Shader clocks it’s one of the highest clocked OEM cards around, and with conditioning and proper adjustment can be overclocked significantly, and OpenCL, CUDA, PhysX, and DirectCompute 5.0 are natively supported too
7) In spite of the high clocks, the 560Ti SC is a low voltage video card, because it’s efficient and can operate with the GF114 CPU at very low power settings, to wit at overclocked settings of 960/1920/2140Mhz the voltage is only 1.0370Volts at 100% GPU Load
Using Precision Video Card Utility, or MSI Afterburner if you prefer that flavor graphics card performance minder, it is possible to adjust the clocks significantly to achieve even higher performance clocks for demanding game play, or PhysX of Folding@Home workouts where time is the enemy and you only have so much of it to get a given result. I am running my GTX 560 Ti SC’s (in SLI in my case, I have two of them) at the aforementioned 960/1920/2140Mhz clocks and using both cards for Folding@Home, each one with a dedicated Work Unit 24/7 365 days a year with excellent results!
My two video cards in an overclocked Core i7 970 CPU-equipped EVGA Classified E760-based computer are averaging almost 20,000 Points Per Day for my Folding@Home efforts, a most enjoyable situation that I have going! As I look at them right now, I am typing on that computer which is also my office server and my media and multi-media machine, with multiple RAID configurations off an Areca 1680IX-8 Hardware RAID Bus Master– those video cards are cranking out two FAHome work units right now at 99% Load on the CPU for each card, and the cards are at 73-degrees for card NO.1, and 69-degrees Celsius for card NO.2, steady as rocks in Gibraltar. They have been doing this same dance for almost 7 months and counting, having put them in service at the first part of February, 2011, and they have not missed a day of work or play in all that time, 100% up time for these cards and my computer overclocked to 4.2Ghz no less! Pretty KUHL, right?
I also play some games on this CPU, with Crysis 2 and BC2 being my favorites presently, and with the video cards in SLI I can crank up the settings to just less than 1000Mhz Core clock and 2200Mhz Memory clocks and play either one of those high-demand games at full 1080P on my Samsung 46″ LED LCD HDTV, which the computer is hooked up to via Mini-HDMI to HDMI switch off card No.1 with perfect resolution and unbelievable game play! There is no end to the joy that my card duo can bring me, as they are arguably the best pair of sub-$500 video cards that exist, and I’ve got a lifetime’s…
