Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB WindForce OC Listed
Gigabyte is working on a premium GeForce GTX 650 Ti graphics card that doubles the memory amount, packs factory-overclocked speeds, and better cooling over NVIDIA reference design, for a relatively small premium. The GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2 GB WindForce OC graphics card was listed on Spanish online retailer PC Componentes for €169, which the source claims to be a €24 premium over the baseline for GTX 650 Ti. Gigabyte's card features 2 GB of GDDR5 memory across a 128-bit wide memory interface (compared to 1 GB), features clock speeds of 1032 MHz core (compared to 925 MHz core reference), and Gigabyte's own paraphernalia, including Ultra Durable VGA PCB and WindForce 2X cooling solution.

I’ll predicate if it can overclocked to say 1280Mhz stable (39% over referance), you could get it to spar with any 7770. Right now even a Gigabyte OC 7770 is $110 -AR$10 w/FS... that's what it's been or lower and I don't see that as taking into account AMD recent pricing adjustment. Although, this with a Windforce is nicer, is it really necessary, a GK106 shouldn't need all that cooling? It would appear to me like they’re polishing a turd, with that cooler and the added 1Gb memory?
To me they just want it to appear to be something it’s not so they can price it at $130.
