NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti Roundup - Galaxy, MSI and Palit - PC Perspective

[theseeker6966]

good review and ty. lot of info on hardware parts themselves out there, but not much on what manufacturers to buy from.

[dev1597]

evga gtx 560ti and msi gtx 560i hawk which is best

[leftlanerick]

Redman on Funkmaster flex mix tap. I use to bump that shit when I just came in the Army back at Ft. Riley Ks lil. Philly Rules

[Corristo89]

And still no coolers on the VRMs on the Palit card... this caused some outrage with their GTX 460, which also didn't have any. Only the cards sent to reviewers had them. As expected, the card fared well in tests but disappointed when normal consumers installed it.

This "longer lasting military components" is just a marketing ploy. Hardcore gamers replace their cards about every year or two, long before the card actually starts having mechanical problems. It is advantegous for OCing though.

[aKeckers1]

I have an MSI 560Ti, but what the hell does military components mean?!

[cfisher2833]

@aKeckers1  It just means the components last longer and can withstand more war and tear.

[AKEYTOHELL]

I plan to upgrade to something which gives me best performance for gaming ... which Brand you guys suggest me?

MSI, Gigabyte,Asus,Palit,Galaxy,EVG­A,any other?>????>?

[yeason2010]

@AKEYTOHELL there all good.

[cfisher2833]

@AKEYTOHELL

The msi twin frzr ii. It allows you to significantly overclock the card.

[SchijtXD]

lol the msi one runs stable 1000 mhz just put more volt trough it :D

[dioni81]

wich one is the best one? help ...

[KacelaJ]

@dioni81 I've had the MSI version since early July 2011, and I absolutely love it - just watch the version of driver you use - download the latest drivers from MSI instead of using the one that it ships with - it's flaky.

[nickbud42]

@dioni81 msi since it runs cooler u can overclock that thing more

[NOXXism]

Don't get the palit. It's a POS. I know because I have one.

[MrDjsmokedog]

Gigabyte ????

[mpgcristo1994]

Asus gtx 560 ti directcu 2 top is the best version.

[jogonexon]

buy a msi and u wont regret..best cooler.. better temperatures..military components..last longer

[88Mitsuomi88]

@jogonexon one of my fans broke down and its not even half a year old. Otherwise its a steal, allmost as cheap as the reference and my card runs 1000mhz core and 2250 memory 24/7

[Baromanthefool]

@jogonexon very very true i have a 460 msi talon attack hawk and wow it runs amagingly.. its better than a typical 470 too msi is the way forward!

[Retify92]

@jogonexon "military components" bought into marketing BS eh ;). The cooler is nice, but the reference is good enough even for a decent OC on there, I would sooner get myself an Evga, like I do, and have better warranty and support. MSI are decent, but for the same price, I would take Evga or Zotac first

[seroyer2]

@jogonexon I agree but you really only need a card to last 3 years. they get out dated so fast its insane.

[jogonexon]

theres nothing to compare.. msi is better

[asiq1987]

@jogonexon why?

[jeenormus]

shame its discontinued now 560ti sonic edition by palit is a very agressive and powerful card its equal to 2x 6870 in crossfire

[anderekit]

ok ive got an ATX 750UB POWER SUPPPY BUT IT HAS ONLY ONE 6PIN CONNECTOR WILL IT STILL RUNM THIS CARD?

[440HemiBB]

i heard him say some numbers about stuff, thumbs up if u agree

[MrFlyd1234]

*YAY*

[hecjr82]

man I wanted to get the gigabite soc version of the 560 ti but seeing your comparison chart the 6950 1g is faster :( am I right.. so that means a 6950 xxx will blow it out the water:( I have a 22 in mon and like the way nvidia makes there graphics can you give me your perspective pcper. the gigbate clocks in a 950mhz

[trikstadude3]

@hecjr82 6950 is also more expensive, louder, and runs hotter. I'm talking compared to a MSI Twin Frozr 560ti.

[QBisbest]

@OliRoyd95 I have the Palit, I'm not sure about the brand, but the card is pretty good.

[haloking890]

hey im a ps3 gamer converting to PC gaming does anyone have advice on witch graphics card i should use?

[MrDeano324]

@haloking890

What i would say is dont buy Nvidia. They either dont work out the box, or they break down within a year. Plus they are way overpriced for what they are. Buy an ATi Radeon. Best cards on the market. I cant really give you a specific card as I dont know your budget. But as I said, make sure its an ATi Redeon. Not Nvidia

[haloking890]

@MrDeano324 thanks for the advice

[mdm5995]

@haloking890 ignore him, don't be brand loyal, do your own research, and compare benchamrks, size, cooling, core clocks, vram, and benchmarks to find the right GPU for your needs.

[sttate]

@MrDeano324 I was looking at the ATi Radeon 5870.... then I noticed this card, which I can find for around 15% cheaper and it competes with the cards an entire series above the 5870 (6870).

I don't really see why I should buy a radeon when there's a better card that has less power consumption for cheaper.

[hrishi34]

Theres GTX 590 too!!

[Xavs44]

Aww I've got the Asus direct CU :(. It's the best looking one in my opinion.

[kevinacosta111]

Compare with Crysis 1 or 2 the best game with more grapchics ever

[spikes3001]

I Order my Pali Gtx 560 Ti Sonic Yesterday *-* I wait for my package!! :D

[shehanster]

@SumoNinja1985 i dont think theres a Direct CU2 version of the 560's its just the 570 and the 580 of the nvidia cards that are having the direct CU 2 versions

[sabaduy10]

I Like and more appreciated your review...and very well explained...

I hope more review to come. More POWER

[TheEGGtech]

@SumoNinja1985 i have one of those and its AWESOME i overclocked it to have similar performance to a GTX 570 (only a bit slower). how do i know gtx 570 well i have one of those too but i have the 560 in my second pc although i have also overclocked my 570 which makes it faster still lol.

[COD4Mixer]

I'm assuming that all of the cards have a 6 pin plug for the top fans. It that right?

[amdathl0n64]

This or ATI 6950? Which is better? I want to play AION on high setting with 2xaa.

[TheEGGtech]

@amdathl0n64 in the video he said the 6950 was slightly better but id do some more research and stuff

[blink180heights]

@amdathl0n64 560 is better of course

[ShikeoFujiwara]

@amdathl0n64 6950 is a faster card and comes with 2GB vram. 560 only got 1GB.

[bundieberg]

I got my MSI GTX 560 to 1000mhz core :D stable :D

[blink180heights]

twin frozr II is the best one next to the Asus DCII .. i am getting twin frozr II because you can just overclock it without needing a slow software application that asus brings, which is the only way you can overclock. MSI it is.

[xLycosax]

yehaw i will get gtx 560 ti gigabyte oc 900mhz 1gb

[acenumbah1]

such a good video!! thanks :D

[narcis4none]

very nice review! subcribing... do more vids like this!

[PorscheLover87]

Really informative review

[pheeson]

this guy looks allot like mike zuckerberg

[PorscheLover87]

@pheeson Mark not Mike :)

[osamahal3mri]

[vybzshakur]

is palit a gd comapny to buy a card from... im buying the 2gb version from palit

[blink180heights]

@vybzshakur if you are only going to use one card, you should buy the msi twin frozr II or the Asus DCII , both 249 but the only way to Overclock asus is to use the very slow software they include that freezes up my computer, MSI's heatsink cooler is just as good as the ASUS but the overclocking ability is what makes MSI win... i am going to newegg right now

[TheEGGtech]

@blink180heights umm i overclocked my asus DCII 560 ti using msi afterburner. all i did was i didnt install the drivers off the cd rather i went to nvidia's website and got them. more up to date and no asus crap :)

[acogscopepwn]

the msi one is the way to go, but im not sure, i might get the palit one because of the 2gb,

[TheTerriblePuddle]

@acogscopepwn Gainward also have a 2g version.

[SuperGuyincognito]

Supposedly, the newest 11.1a amd drivers improve metro 4xmsaa performance on the 6800 cards by ~30%. That would probably alter some of the charts, if true.

[pcper]

@SuperGuyincognito We used 11.1a on both our HD 6870 and HD 6950 1GB results in this review.

[SuperGuyincognito]

@pcper Thanks for the info.

[randomite88]

@pcper is that why the 6950 benchmark results are a tad higher than the ones i've seen in other reviews? For example, in bad company, the 560 often beats out the 6950 on other website reviews.

[GiantsFly]

@pcper hey my monitor display is 2560x1600 resolution and i just want a card that has dual dvi and it will run fine and support my monitor resolution.... i am not a gamer ,i just want a fast computer

[TheEGGtech]

@GiantsFly the 560 ti will probably be overkill if ur not gaming. id suggest a 6850 or gtx 460 if u can still get one just make sure its the 1gb version

[IamTrimbler]

@SuperGuyincognito haha when i first saw this I though you were talkin about the 6800gt and i was like wtf?
