QUOTE(rav3n82 @ Aug 23 2012, 05:54 PM) Yup, that's a good idea but our friend here doesn't want a reference design. Hahaha! Good choice of words. QUOTE(hazwan_aviator @ Aug 23 2012, 06:02 PM) Don't play play with voltage tweak, later might fry your card. |

QUOTE(hazwan_aviator @ Aug 23 2012, 06:09 PM) its not covered under warranty even they come with voltage tweak software/capable/hardware?? If you burn the chip by negligence i don't think its cover in the warranty. There's plenty of guide out there bro. In overclockers united also got a vga OC guide. Here i put a link for ya. Still i don't see it's neccesary to pin this on first page. Any other suggestion?sorry for asking alot of questions...really dumb bout these... guys,mind if u can pin the guide(link) for ocing this 600 series card...saw somewhere in previous page but couldnt find it...im sure people (noob like me http://www.overclock.net/t/1265110/the-gtx...ng-master-guide http://www.overclock.net/t/1258159/officia...70-overclocking |

QUOTE(fisherman10 @ Aug 24 2012, 03:21 AM) anything I can do to solve it? I cant seem to find any aftermarket coolers for this gtx550 on LYN. any links or shops that you know? Arctic cooling has some aftermarket cooler for 550 TI. Hardly seen any vga cooler for lower end model here. Best is still stick with the original cooler, anything happen, the warranty still valid. |

ASUS ROG MARS III Dual GTX 680 PCB Pictured
QUOTE ASUS' Republic of Gamers MARS III dual-GeForce GTX 680 graphics card may have been extensively covered at this year's Computex event, but very few have had a peek at its innards (PCB). Expreview posted pictures of the card's PCB, sourced from the manufacturer. The pictures reveal an unusually long and tall PCB, which draws power from three 8-pin PCIe power connectors, a 21-phase VRM that uses Super Alloy chokes and driver-MOSFETs, PLX PEX8747 PCI-Express 3.0 x48 bridge chip, and of course the two GK104 GPUs with a total of 32 individual GDDR5 memory chips (16 for each GPU, 16 on each side of the PCB) wired to them, totaling 8 GB of memory. We received an update from ASUS, clarifying that this card will not be released. The design was only displayed during a factory tour, to show ASUS craftmanship. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « http://www.techpowerup.com/171202/ASUS-ROG...B-Pictured.html http://www.expreview.com/20968.html |

QUOTE(SteamieHP @ Aug 28 2012, 08:01 PM) Peeps, i need some suggestion regarding 660ti. Perhaps you can read a few reviews regarding those card. Here's asus card review. Which one is better between these two - Asus GTX 660Ti DCII TOP or Gigabyte GTX 660Ti OC Version? Just throw out some suggestions so i can decide.

QUOTE(SteamieHP @ Aug 28 2012, 08:54 PM) As for now, im leaning towards asus. But i got read few reviews saying ggbyt 660ti is not bad either. Plus got ready stock in nearby shop with reasonable price. It has been released. Shortage of stock kot. I wonder why asus 660ti is not in the list for most sellers in garage sales. not yet out meh? |

QUOTE(Boldnut @ Aug 31 2012, 07:40 AM) the source website are using some other method to to resize the image, Atfirst I didnt know the picture is soo big, So putting save the day. BTW i'm somehow skeptical about this thing. Well, let's just wait and see. Anyway, with the real chip coming with a solid picture we should be seeing some leak of a real product pretty soon.

NVIDIA GK106 GPU Pictured, GeForce GTX 660 Benchmarked
QUOTE Here are some of the first pictures of NVIDIA's upcoming GK106 silicon, which goes into building the GeForce GTX 660 graphics card. The GK106, built on the 28 nm silicon fab process, is poised to be NVIDIA's newest mainstream-performance chip that succeeds the GF116. The pictures reveal the chip package to be almost as big as the GF116 but smaller than the GK104. This can be attributed to fewer memory I/O pins (192-bit maximum bus width). The rectangular die of the GK106 appears to have roughly the same area as that of the GF116, but with the higher transistor density of the 28 nm process, one can expect a significantly higher transistor count for the chip. If some of the pictures we're seeing are any indication the GK106 will be extremely energy-efficient, as an unknown graphics card based on it draws power from just one 6-pin power connector. According to the specifications leaked from various sources, some of which include the source of these pictures, the GK106 as GeForce GTX 660 features 960 CUDA cores, 24 ROPs, and a 192-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 2 GB memory. The card could ship with clock speeds of 980 MHz core, 1033 MHz GPU Boost, and 6.00 GHz memory. At reference speeds and on-spec voltage, the chip could feature a typical power draw of 140W, which explains the need for just one 6-pin power connector. Some of the sources managed to get a GeForce GTX 660 sample running with GeForce 305.27 beta drivers, and put it through 3DMark 11. Below are the GPU-Z screenshot (with some fields blanked out by the source), 3DMark 11 Performance preset and 3DMark 11 eXtreme preset numbers.

NVIDIA Plans Two New SKUs Based on GK106
QUOTE A little later this month, NVIDIA plans to launch the GeForce GTX 660, its first desktop GPU based on the 28 nm GK106 silicon. The GTX 660 carries NVIDIA's ASIC codename GK106-400. An internal document detailing other SKUs based on the GK106 in the works, was leaked to the web. According to a 3DCenter.org report, the two ASIC codenames GK106-250 and GK106-200 described in the document could be new SKUs. The GK106-250, carrying a working title GeForce GTX 655, could have one of the five SMX units of the GK106 disabled, resulting in a CUDA core count of 768. According to the document, it features a 192-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 2 GB of memory, much like the GTX 660. The GK106-200, on the other hand, with a working title GeForce GTX 650 Ti, could feature just three of the five SMX units on the GK106 silicon, making up 576 CUDA cores. According to the document, it features 2 GB of GDDR5 memory across a 128-bit wide memory interface, much like the GK107-based GTX 650. The two SKUs could help NVIDIA seal gaps in its mainstream desktop GPU lineup. Source: http://www.techpowerup.com/171748/NVIDIA-P...d-on-GK106.html |

QUOTE(noname_lah86 @ Sep 8 2012, 04:13 AM) I want to ask, does it worth to upgrade my HD6950/70 into a GTX670 ? Let say I'm gonna sold my 6950 and get a GTX670. The GTX 670 would definitely show some performance over your 6950. Do check out the review, i've put a link on the review of GTX 670 against AMD 6970. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/..._GTX_670/1.html |
