MSI N660TI TF 3GD5/OC GeForce GTX 660 Ti 3GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: - Fast
- Drivers are solid
- Runs cool
- Double the performance from a 460 gtx
- Stomps on games and makes THEM cry
- Quiet even on heavy load

Cons: this card laughs at cons... and eats them

Other Thoughts: I bought this card to give life to my aging i7-2600k system and it did just that. The 460 gtx has made its way to my secondary sytem that had a 250 gtx, worthy upgrade on both. I am running all my games on max settings, of course this eats them alive still. Mechwarrior Online is as smooth as sild and Metro Last Light looks amazing. Love the card!

Pros: Good quality card - performs as expected.

Cons: None except for the miserable MIR

Other Thoughts: NO more MIR purchases!!! They are more trouble than worth. I shall NOT consider an MIR as a sales inducement in future purchases.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

We apologize for the issues that you are having with the rebate process.
You needed to follow instructions by providing a valid invoice (not packing slip) with UPC code, and the rebate document.
If you were denied, the rebate center would generally allow you to resubmit again, but not if you missed the deadline.

However, if you have any issues with your rebate claim, then please contact us directly at usreview@msi.com and we will see what we can do for you.

Thank you.

Pros: Been running solid so far, cooler works well and is quieter than the previous card at stressed levels. can handle AutoDesk Revit screeen regens and model manipulation very smoothly.
Afterburner woks well for overclocking this card.

Cons: Be sure your case is well ventilated, which should not be a problem.

Other Thoughts: would like 2, but my MB is a mATX, cards would be right next to each other which may make the fan inefficient for one of the cards

Pros: this is a very good card, its able to play MC with around 500 fps not that a monitor will display that many. but still very good, yet very quiet surprisingly. maxed out WEI at 7.9

Cons: it makes a really high pitched noise for some reason in the submenues of minecraft. if your older you won't be able to here it.

Pros: I got 2 of these running on SLI Not only do these look awesome but they perform very very well! With all the heat pipes and big fans it runs at really low temps!

Cons: I with they were 256-bit!!

Pros: Genuinely happy with this purchase !

Great bang for your buck.

Changing over from an EVGA GTX 280 to this MSI GTX 660Ti 3GB has been an eye opener. Runs practically every game on high (1920*1200) without breaking a sweat.

Fantastic cooler. Really good temperatures and near silent (idle or load). What more could you ask for?

Tweak this card and scare a couple GTX670's? Hell's yes!

Cons: 2GB vs 3Gb is debatable but venture into 2500*1600 territory and things should become clearer.

Wish I had the cash to SLI :-(

Pros: Ran solid for the first few days

Cons: After the third day all my games I run make the graphics card crash. sometimes the system will freeze with a screen with green blocks and then come back and other times the system will green screen and completely shut down and reboot.I dont want to RMA it yet because I'm not sure if this is a GPU or PSU issue. Im running a 650w power supply

Other Thoughts: Please help!

Pros: Symmetric address space for the 660 ti memory controllers: 1G per each of the three 64 bit controllers, which yields more VRAM than I'll ever need for a single HD monitor set up.
The TF cooler: effective and quiet even at stressing performance levels.
Ripping good performance; ability to OC VRAM and clock to achieve a stable 10% boost over the out-of-box performance.
Ideal for SLI cards driving huge resolutions.

Cons: The TF cooler exhausts its heat into your case (but nothing that decent case ventilation can't handle). I know this is a super tiny con but it's worth mentioning somewhere.

Other Thoughts: The only reason I went with this card over the MSI PE edition was that a local retailer had it on sale, along with a rebate, which took over 20% off the egg's asking price. Upgraded my 2 year old MSI gtx 560 ti TF whose primary fault was its (now paltry) 1GB. Hopefully 3GB will have some long term staying power. BTW, the 660 ti performance clearly outclasses the 560 ti and I'm immensely enjoying that too.

Pros: You can play so many game on high setting.

Cons: Some games you will need to play on medium.

Other Thoughts: Great card good for the money

Pros: Excellent. Couldn't have asked for anything more from this card. I upgraded from a Nvidia GTX 560 TI. Unbelievable is all I have to say. Night and day difference. Frames in Diablo 3 went from 40-50 fps when fighting elite packs to 220+ fps. World of Warcraft was the same way, 200+ fps everywhere I went. By the way this is with all settings cranked as high as they can go (ultra). Haven't yet attempted to play Planetside 2 or Borderlands 2, but I assume it would be the same case.

If you are looking for a very solid card that will work with new games coming out in 2013, then purchase this card. The warranty is easy to register for and is I believe 3 years. This gives enough time for you to save and purchase another card in 3 years :). In addition, you can over clock this card very easily with the provided software (MSI Afterburner).

For the negative comment about the warranty below, I currently have not had any problems. Just make sure you have everything they list on the rebate form and you should be all right. I will add another comment if I have any trouble with the rebate, but assume I will not.

Cons: I don't understand why more top end graphics cards do not have 256-bit GDDR5, but oh well. Not free.
