NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 and 275 drivers

Imprimer

After the GeForce GTX 560 it in January, Nvidia announced the launch of a new model, the GeForce GTX 560 (without suffix it).

This GeForce GTX 560 can in fact be seen as a GeForce GTX 460 overclockée as it is based on the GPU GF114, a minor revision of the GF104. Like the GTX 460 card has 336 processors flows and a 256-bit with 1 GB of GDDR5 memory bus. Are frequency of 810 MHz for the GPU and 1002 MHz for the memory against 675/800 Mhz for the GTX 460 of base... but it is already in the trade of the GTX 460 overclockées at close frequencies or greater than the GTX 560.

Our colleagues from the computer press were able to test this new GeForce GTX 560 models. Logically map is between the GeForce GTX 460 1 GB and GTX 560 it and becomes a direct competitor of the Radeon HD 6870 which did not really competitor to date. The GeForce GTX 560 is however not able to do better than the Radeon HD 6870, it displays an identical price (€170 for reference maps) and similar performance, which is a bit disappointing since the AMD card is on the market for several months. Nvidia card however has the advantage of more reasonable than the Radeon HD 6870 noise. Models GTX 560 overclockées as the "DirectCU II TOP" of ASUS display with performance of GeForce GTX 560 Ti (15% of frequencies GPU in addition to the 560 overclockée offset the 14% of additional units of calculation it 560).

Quote: As we supposed arrival of GeForce GTX 560 it in January, a model without this suffix was indeed provided by Nvidia, which however waited 4 months to introduce it. This equivalent to a GeForce GTX 460 overclockée will be hard since many very interesting models are already available from 150 to €220. To observe its behavior, we looked at one of the GeForce GTX best-performing 560 launch: Asus GTX 560 DirectCU TOP II.
