EVGA GTX 650 Ti Boost SC 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.
In this review, we test the EVGA GTX 650 Ti Boost SuperClocked, which, as the name suggests, is overclocked out of the box to a base clock frequency of 1072 MHz; quite a large increase over the 980 MHz of the reference design. Memory runs at the reference clock of 1502 MHz. Pricing is up by $10 compared to the NVIDIA reference design, which seems to be reasonable.
