A pair of new graphics cards have been announced during the first day of "The Way It's Meant To Be Played Montreal 2013" both of which intended for system builders to integrate into their products. Both cards fall under the GeForce GTX 760 branding with the names: "GeForce GTX 760 Ti (OEM)" and "GeForce GTX 760 192-bit (OEM)".

I will place the main specifications of both cards side-by-side-side with the default GeForce 760 for a little bit of reference. Be sure to check out its benchmark.

  GTX 760 GTX 760 192-bit (OEM) GTX 760 Ti (OEM)
Shader Cores 1152 1152 1344
Base Clock 980 MHz 823 MHz 915 MHz
Boost Clock 1033 MHz 888 MHz 980 MHz
Memory Interface 256-bit 192-bit 256-bit
Memory Bandwidth 6.0 GT/s 5.8 GT/s 6.0 GT/s
vRAM (capacity) 2 GB 1.5 or 3 GB 2 GB

The GeForce 760 is no slouch and, especially the GTX 760 Ti, seems to be pretty close in performance to the retail product. I could see this being a respectible addition to a Steam Machine. I still cannot understand why, like the gaming bundle, these cards were not announced during the keynote speech.

Or, for that matter, why no-one seems to be reporting on them.
