MSI GTX 650 Ti Boost TwinFrozr Gaming 2 GB Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
The GeForce GTX 650 Ti with Boost has been on the market for a few weeks now and was received with very positive reviews. NVIDIA's latest card provides a significant performance improvement over the GTX 650 Ti thanks to the added Boost algorithm. Performance is slightly higher than AMD's HD 7850 with very competitive pricing.
MSI's GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost TwinFrozr Gaming uses the company's famous TwinFrozr cooling solution on a custom board design. Clock speeds have received a 50 MHz bump while memory clock remains unchanged.
MSI is asking a $5 price premium for their card, which seems quite reasonable.
