EVGA GeForce GTX 560 SC Video Card Review

Today EVGA and Nvidia announce the brand new Geforce GTX 560 SC Super Clocked Video Card. Although the EVGA GeForce GTX 560 SC Video Card appears to be just like the GTX 460, the two share a lot except for the fact that the GPU's are slightly different. Instead of running on the GF104 core like the GTX 460 the GTX 560 SC runs on the GF114 core, which has transistor level enhancements that allow it to run faster using the same amount of power as the GTX 460. Take a look inside to see how it stacked up against the other cards in it's price range.

Quote: "The Nvidia GTX 560 SC (Fermi) GPU is based on the very same core as the Nvidia GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) Video Card and comes fully equipped with 336 CUDA cores, 56 texture units and 32 ROPs. With the included 7 Polymorph Engines for proper tessellation you are now armed and ready to play some of the most advanced Direct 11 games on the market now and those in the very near future. Although it is very similar in every way to the GTX 460, instead of using the GF 104 core the EVGA GeForce GTX 560 SC (Fermi) Video Card makes use of the Fermi based GF 114 core that allows the EVGA GeForce GTX 560 SC (01G-P3-1461-KR) to obtain higher clock speeds while using less power overall. So not only will you be getting more performance, you will be getting that performance for darn near the same amount of money a whole year later..."
