EVGA 012-P3-2068-KR GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 448 Cores Classified 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Powerful. 448 cores

This card will not run everything you throw at it on ultra with all the bells and whistles turned on, but then again it is not a $1000 gpu.

This card easily runs all games on high around 50-60fps.

Stock on ultra about 30-45fps depending on what you are playing.

If you have the ability to effectively cool this card, OC it.

If you OC this card you will get near if not above 570 scores, and you will have no problem playing anything on Ultra.

Cons: Super Big.

This card is huge, make sure you have the case to house it.

Feels rather flimsy, but I had zero issue with its construction hindering it.

It can be rather loud, but under heavy load on stock cool I didn't break 70C

I took an egg off because it uses Mini HDMI, and while it was a cheap fix, I'm still not a fan.

Other Thoughts: If you buy two of these you will be a very happy camper. They are cost effective and perform like champs. Even with one of these cards you can easily enjoy playing any game on the market with no issues whatsoever.

Pros: Great card, extremely fast. Performance is outstanding.

Cons: The shroud is poorly designed and the fan blades are very brittle. One of my cards fan blades caught the shroud and exploded.

Other Thoughts: EVGA will replace shroud for free if under warranty but should not have to go through this process. Just a bad design.

Pros: This card is an absolute beast, well I must say THESE cards considering I have two in SLI...It out performs on everything I can throw at it. Both of mine are overclocked to 860mhz but I have pushed it to 900mhz for benchmarking. It scores just as high if not higher as two gtx 570s. I chose this card over a gtx 570 because it has a much better cooling structure (dual fans). Best part is newegg sent me sibling cards with S/N right after each other. No micro stuttering on these cards. I was worried that they would run a bit warm, but they sit in idle at 29C in my case and under full power they hit upper 60s.

Cons: The fans...you know they turn on when it sounds like a jet turbine firing out of the back of your computer, but with the power these cards have, they hardly turn on. Only really heard them fire up under benchmarking.

Other Thoughts: My system

and....
TWO EVGA GTX 560 TI 448 Classified cards in SLI

Pros: Great card! Runs everything I can through at it! MW3, Battlefield 3, Medal of Honor....@1920x1080 High detail.....You name it and it runs it great!!

Cons: None I can think of!

Pros: -Runs very cool, the dual fan design is pretty neat
-Runs pretty smoothly, I can make out almost any game
-It's a good compromise between mid and high tier GPUs

Cons: -The fans can get LOUD. Shouldn't be a problem with headphones, but still it's pretty loud to me.
-The PCI connecters are in a weird spot. I'm used to them being at the side of the card so that you can hide the cable easier. The PCI connecters look awkward where they're at now.

Other Thoughts: My only real complaint about this card is that it only has 1280mb of VRAM. For the price you pay, I would expect more VRAM. Just my opinion though.

Pros: Smashes every game I have thrown at it without breaking a sweat
Stays very cool
I dont find fans very loud
Love the EVGA light on side

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Intel i5-2500k
Asus P8Z68-Deluxe/Gen3
Nvidia GTX 560ti 448core Classified
8 GB Corsair Vengeance ram
Intel 520 120GB SSD
Seasonic X650 Gold psu
Corsair 650-D case

Pros: Upgrade from a Radeon 4870. This card increases my fps in every game and the quality is simply stunning. Also for laughs the case badge is pretty cool as well.

Cons: The card is HUGE!!. I have a mid/full case and had to re-do a lot of my wires in order to get it to fit in. Also my card sits directly on top of my sound card so I am hoping that doesn't create an issue later on down the road.

Other Thoughts: So far its a great card and I hope to put it through it's paces. Will probably benchmark it just to see the numbers. I can't afford SLI but 1 seems plenty for me.

Pros: I went too long before upgrading my system. Being more frugal and tired of spending $2000 every 2 years (just to hang with the Jones( I tried a mid level priced build. I am not dissappointed with the system and I am very happy with this card. For what I do and the games I play (Skyrim, BF3 etc) there are no hiccups but, with some of the highest settings tweeked. It is pretty quiet, fits in my case fine and is pretty much a 570GTX but, cheaper.

Cons: I have not had any issues after owning this for 4 months, not one.

Other Thoughts: I keep saying I should buy another, slap it in SLI so I can crank every setting on the newest games. The truth is, every game I have looks stunning, and plays at good frame rates. So, why waste the money. In two years I will buy the next close to the best thing (700 blah blah TI etc...) If the benchmarks are close and you save $200 bucks, call it what you want.

Pros: Fast. 448 cores. Overclockable... I've had up to 900Mhz with the EVGA OC tool.

Cons: This 560ti 448 card is kinda huge... I have it crammed into my mid-tower ATX would not recommend to get one of these if you don't have full-tower.

Other Thoughts: Not the 680gtx =( I woulda waited for it if I knew the price would be $500... so worth that with how much longer that card will last for newer games. Newegg!!! please carry PALIT cards once again. I had 2x 8800gt Palit cards that had best cooling ever and lasted very long. EVGA is alright so far, but I like the stuff PALIT does.

Pros: Fantastic card. Overclocked to 915/1830 with only slight voltage modding in EVGA Precision.

Every game I've thrown at it runs at constant 60FPS on high/ultra settings (Skyrim, SC2, Arkham City).

Cons: None.
