EVGA's GeForce GTX 760 Lineup Detailed
EVGA's GeForce GTX 760 graphics card lineup will have no less than six models, based on three of its own cooler designs. The company even plans to take advantage of the leeway NVIDIA appears to have given its partners, to come up with custom-design GTX 760 graphics cards, in a bid to close the performance gap between the $249-$299 GTX 760, and the $399 GTX 770. EVGA's GTX 760 lineup starts off with a base-model, which uses its new ACX cooling solution that made its debut with this generation. This card will stick to NVIDIA reference clock speeds of 980 MHz core, 1033 MHz GPU Boost, and 6.00 GHz memory, and feature 2 GB of memory. EVGA is working on a 4 GB GTX 760, which sticks to reference clock speeds, but features the company's blower-type Signature cooler from previous generation.
Moving on, EVGA will deploy its latest ACX cooling solution on the GTX 760 SuperClocked. Armed with 2 GB of memory, this card gives you factory-overclocked speeds of 1072 MHz core, 1137 MHz GPU Boost, and an untouched 6.00 GHz memory. A few steps up the ladder, you'll find the GTX 760 FTW 2 GB, which uses the same blower-type previous-generation Signature cooler as the GTX 760 4 GB, but with 1085 MHz core, 1150 MHz GPU Boost, and 6.00 GHz memory. Another card with the same clock speeds is the GTX 760 FTW SuperClocked. This strangelet uses a different high-performance blower-type cooler, which made its debut with EVGA's custom-design GTX 780 graphics cards. At the top of the pile is the GTX 760 4 GB FTW, armed with double the memory amount, ACX cooling, and the same clock speeds as the other FTW cards. Given the $249-$299 positioning of the GTX 760, we're skeptical about EVGA launching water-cooling ready HydroCopper cards based on the chip. The cards are pictured below in the order of their mention, in the article.

I probably wont upgrade from my current GTX 670 though,......
Perf/$ would be good if it really lies between GTX660Ti and GTX670 with $249 release.
And the 770 has more shaders and a much higher clock than the 670 and the 760 has less shaders and only a marginally higher clock. I'd believe close to even, but not 10% faster.
EVGA is holding to NVidia’s new marketing premise "confuse hell out them"... ;)
Incremental performance, spec's, and pricing… spin the wheel round and round… what perchance will yours really get? Now I’m feeling dizzy!
:ohwell:
Nvidia left some space for 760ti and bought some more time for 670. It would be nice to cut some price of it.
Having a large number of models probably reflects the fact that EVGA relies upon a single IHV's products...I take it you're acquainted with Sapphire's extensive range of HD 7950/7970 products...another vendor tied to a sole IHV (at least in graphics cards). Surely you mean dizzier ? Some of us do recall your earlier posts :laugh:
At the moment 660 Ti is ~260 EUR and ~300 USD. So in reality the GTX 760 will be ~360 USD.
I can guarantee that it will be at the very least 320 USD. GPU prices are always higher in USD than in EUR (only when you convert EUR to USD, prices in Europe become ~15-20% higher), i.e.:
Gigabyte WF3 GTX 780
~645 EUR vs. ~680 USD
ASUS DC2O GTX 770
~390 EUR vs. ~410 USD
ASUS DC2O GTX 660 Ti
~260 EUR vs. ~280 USD
Gigabyte WF3 HD 7970
~350 EUR vs. ~400 USD
Gigabyte WF3 HD 7870
~210 EUR vs. ~235 USD
Get the idea? There is no way that 760 could be priced lower in USD than it is in EUR.
Min. 320 USD.
