ASUS GTX560Ti 448 Core DirectCU II Review

Battlefield 3

Oh dear. The 448 Core version was primarily released to coincide with the demands of Batman Arkham City and Battlefield 3. Whilst Batman was average, in Battlefield 3 the ASUS DirectCU II is nothing short of poor. Even when overclocked the ASUS can’t keep up with the stock Gigabyte, which wasn’t impressive to begin with.

Dirt3

Dirt3 just piles on the misery. It would be easy to think that just at stock the ASUS is performing poorly, but even overclocking doesn’t help it overcome the whopping 40FPS+ differential between it and the competing models. Heck even the plain GTX560Ti beats it pretty handily. This hasn’t been a good page for the ASUS DirectCU II.
