ASUS introduces the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost DirectCU II, a new graphics card with an overclocked 1085MHz GPU, 2GB GDDR5 memory at the standard 6008MHz and the ASUS DirectCU II cooling solution.
ASUS today announced the GeForce® GTX 650 Ti BOOST DirectCU II, which features an overclocked 1085MHz NVIDIA® GTX 650 Ti GPU paired with 2GB GDDR5 on a 192-bit interface. The card offers a combination of DirectX® 11.1-compatible power and value, expanding the range of ASUS graphics cards that cater to gamers and DIY enthusiasts.
ASUS-exclusive features improve GeForce® GTX 650 Ti BOOST DirectCU II performance. They include the DirectCU II cooler, which maintains 20%* lower temperatures than a reference GTX 650 Ti BOOST, long-lasting Super Alloy Power components, and user-friendly GPU Tweak graphics card tuning.
DirectCU II keeps high speed performance quieter and cooler
ASUS thermal design supports high end gaming with the stability of innovative cooling. Using all-copper heatpipes that directly touch the GTX 650 Ti GPU, DirectCU II expedites heat removal for 20%* lower temperatures than those of a comparable reference graphics card. A specially-selected 80mm fan with blades engineered to minimize drag is precision-fitted to the DirectCU II cooler, resulting in minimal vibration and noise. Compared to reference, the ASUS GeForce® GTX 650 Ti BOOST DirectCU II is up to three times quieter*.
Super Alloy Power components maintain stability and increase overclocking headroom
ASUS uses proprietary power delivery parts that can handle the heat and stress of gaming and overclocking over longer product lifespans. Solid state capacitors, concrete-core chokes, and hardened MOSFETs apply exclusive materials, leading to 1.5 times the longevity of reference cards and an average overclocking range increase of 15%.
GPU Tweak gives gamers easy access to graphics card tuning
Exclusive to ASUS graphics cards, the GPU Tweak utility offers a user-friendly interface that opens up versatile adjustments of graphics properties. Core and clock speeds, voltages, and fan speeds can be changed instantly, and multiple game-specific profiles may be created to make the most of each title.
