EVGA GeForce GTX 690 - Back to top

Fudzilla

Recommended - Fudzilla

"Although this is a dual GPU graphics card, we were pleased with overclocking. Reference GPU Base clock is 915MHz, but we used EVGA’s Precision X to boost it +135MHz. We had even more fun with the memory and pushed it from reference 1502MHz to 1752MHz. One thing is for certain, GTX 690 is the best high-end card we’ve had on our test, which makes our award a no-brainer, really."

EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC Signature - Back to top

Fudzilla

Recommended - Fudzilla

"EVGAs GTX 680 SC Signature is one of the fastest air cooled GTX 680 cards around. Its GPU runs at 1086MHz and the memory at 1552MHz (6208MHz effectively). In comparison, reference clocks for GTX 680 cards are 1006/1502MHz GPU/memory. EVGAs GTX 680 SC Signature card is ready for additional overclocking as well, since it has one 8-pin connector and one 6-pin connector, instead of two 6-pin connectors found on the reference card. There is also an additional phase for PWM regulation."

Cool, quiet and eminently fast in the out-of-the-box guise, Classified is a card whose potential can only truly be unlocked by serious enthusiasts; users who dally with the EVBot controller and dial-in obscene voltages while utilising the type of cooling any sane person would find crazy."

"The end result is a card that performs well, there's not a game out there that it can't deal with. Anno 2070 at the best quality settings and 4xAA pushes near 100 frames per second on average at 1920x1200, and still 60 fps at 2560X1600. In Crysis 2 we end at an average of 66 FPS in 1920x1200 with Ultra quality settings and that high resolution texture package and 4x AA. Battlefield 3 is another example, with all eye candy opened up in game and again at 4xAA the card still pushes 59 FPS at 19x12 and that makes it the amongst the fastest single GPU based graphics card on the market."

EVGA GeForce GTX 670 FTW - Back to top

Fudzilla

Recommended - Fudzilla

"At the end of the day, it's clear that EVGA's GTX 670 For The Win is in fact a winner. The factory overclock ensured that the card scores really close to the GTX 680, which is quite appealing, especially after considering the difference in price. When buying any graphics card, especially the factory overclocked cards, we usually look at the cooling first. In many cases you'll get higher clocks and improved performance at the expense of silence. This is not the case with EVGA's GTX 670 FTW, which remains silent in pretty much any scenario."

Great Vaule - Alienbabel

"If you are buying a powerful upper-midrange video card right now that is perfect for 1920×1200 resolutions while still being able to handle 2560×1600 as well as being great bang for buck, the EVGA GTX 660 Ti Superclock is an easy choice for only ten dollars more than the reference design. We feel it deserves ABT’s Great Value award since it performs well against competing cards that are currently priced out of its class."

The cooler does what it needs to do, it's silent and keeps the card at roughly 75 Degrees C under full game load. If you need a little extra, there is tweaking room left. With all tweaks applies the product will max out at roughly 1150~1250 MHz based on the boost frequency"
