3DMark11
3DMark11 (DirectX 11)
3DMark 11 is the latest version of the world’s most popular benchmark. Designed to measure your PC’s gaming performance 3DMark 11 makes extensive use of all the new features in DirectX 11 including tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading. Trusted by gamers worldwide to give accurate and unbiased results, 3DMark 11 is the best way to consistently and reliably test DirectX 11 under game-like loads.

- One shadow casting light
-
Graphics Test 4

- Many shadow casting lights
-
Physics Test
- Rigid body physics simulation with a large number of objects
- This test runs at a fixed resolution regardless of the chosen preset
-
Combined Test

- Soft body physics using DirectCompute and the Bullet physics library running on the GPU
- Medium tessellation
- Medium lighting
3DMark11 gives the edge to the GeForce GTX 660 Ti over the HD 7950 3GB Boost at the Extreme preset and the new card sees a 7-8% perf gap between it and the GTX 670.
Again both GPUs are scaling, but the NVIDIA configuration does much better in our synthetic benchmark.

nvidia has a beast of a video card with 660ti compared to 7950 even with an updated bios.

Low TDP, cuda cores, and the MSI Twin Frozr looks promising to overclock. I might just move on from my 6970 to this card. 1344 Cuda cores should help in AE rendering.
How much more performous

I doublt you can SLI a 660ti
I doublt you can SLI a 660ti and a 670 together, and a 660ti is about 5-10% less powerful than a 670.
no you SLI a 660 ti and a 670
no you SLI a 660 ti and a 670 because are different cards you dick, you can only SLI the same card but they can be different makes. e.g MSI and EVGA, but they have to be the same GPU!

Hi, i play in a 25′ Monitor, and i’m going to buy a 660Ti When the 660Ti goes “Cheap” here in Brazil ( A Lot Expensive here : ), but the question is i can Run the 660Ti i have risk of lose the 660ti With a 400w Power Supply ? with a core i3 2120 and 8 gb Kingston Memory ? Thank You. And Sorry for The bad english, i’m Training.
What brand PSU is it? A
What brand PSU is it? A seasonic, thermaltake, or corsair 400w PSU likely would be okay, but the 660ti like a 450+. Other than that, your next upgrade would likely be a Quad Core i5, but even then the difference would be marginal between an i3 and an i5.

I Have a Corsair, but i was seeing that probably i will need to change my power suplly, i have Corsair 400CX, that only have a 6 pin connector.
Will faster GPUs help
Will faster GPUs help productivity with Folding at Home?
If you use the GPU-Client it
If you use the GPU-Client it will. The faster the card, the more points you’ll get.
But in Folding@home the Radeons are much faster, then the GTXs.

Question for
Question for Tom:
——————–
Do you think the 660 has been nerfed enough so that overclocked versions won’t exceed a more expensive 670? Because that was a real problem with the 670 vs 680!
——————–
at lower rez like 1080 don’t
at lower rez like 1080 don’t think would take much OC to get it to around 670 speed, but that disabled memory controller is a ~25% memory bandwidth hit which would be a pretty size-able OC to get that back. I would say it could get in 670 ball park. This card was aimed at single monitor people.

Unless I missed it in my rather quick glance at this review (which has been discarded because of this fact), you should have included the 560 Ti. Did you just assume that no one was interested in the increase of power between the generation gap?
Should have used the 560 Ti, 570, and a 670 as a bench mark competitor – this review is useless with out it.

Can this one card be used to
Can this one card be used to drive an HD TV, and 3 monitors in or out of eyefinity? I want to display a TV on on screen and have 3 monitor computing, not hardcore gaming but along those lines. I don’t play many games, but I’m looking for a card that can do this. I currently run 3 heads off of a 6950/70 and run the TV off the z68 gigabyte iSSD mobo. THe current setup works, but I’m looking to upgrade…

I am planning a build which will use 3 660ti’s in a 3 way SLi configuration so I should find out just how much of an improvement that makes in the next year. Your next question is why? Well I am not as interested in the performance gain as I am interested in getting at cheap GPUs. I am building the computer as mainly a GPU compute platform its ability to serve as a gaming platform is a perk. I am looking to take advantage GPU processing capabilities for GIS work.

It’s my understanding that a 660Ti is a crippled 670gtx on a 192bit bus. So why? can these cards not SLI? surely the 670 would reduce its bus speed down to 192. before you go saying whats the point (I picked up a 660ti for £80 Black friday on Amazon) two 660ti’s beat a 670gtx in most youtube benchies.

I’m going to buy gtx 660 ti but,I don’t know which version of gtx660ti is the best. I’m thinking about gigabyte gtx660ti 3gb (gv n66toc 3gd)
As of right now, the HD 7870
As of right now, the HD 7870 is $80 less than the 660 Ti on Newegg. I don’t think that $80 is worth the performance difference at all.
