As we’ve reported earlier NVIDIA will launch the new series GeForce GTX 560 Ti on January 25th. With a new GF114 GPU the new performance package will offer 384 CUDA cores and 1GB GDDR5 memory. Before the launch an overclocked card from Gigabyte with 900MHz GPU frequency has appeared.
NVIDIA launches the new performance card without any real reference model, which means partners are free to set their own specifications and tailor their models any way they feel like.
Gigabyte looks to have really taken advantage of this and is expected to launch at least two overclocked models of the new GeForce GTX 560 Ti, where one of the cards are listed at an Asian e-tailor.
Gigabyte GV-N560OC-1GI comes with the powerful WindForce 2X cooler sporting dual 80mm fans. Gigabyte has pushed the GPU from 822 MHz to 900 MHz, shader 1800 MHz while the graphics memory operates at 4000 MHz. Among the features we find DirectX 11, 3D Vision, PhysX and CUDA.

Beside the OC model Gigabyte is also working on a GeForce GTX 560 Ti Super OverClock that will be clocked at 1000 MHz, 2000 MHz and 4580 MHz (GPU/Shader/Memory). Here the company has chosen to use its classic Super OverClock cooler with sturdy heatpipes and even more efficient design to make the high frequencies possible.
On January 25th we will have more information to share on NVIDIA’s new performance card that is expected to land in the same segment as Radeon HD 6950, with a price tag around 250€.
