nVidia GTX560 Ti Review

3D Mark Vantage

Starting off as ever with the synthetic test that is 3D Mark Vantage we find the GTX560 Ti at stock performs about where we’d expect it to given the price tag. It’s roughly the same as a HD5870. However once we apply the overclock, and this will be a common thread throughout this review, it absolutely flies, being ahead of the much more expensive AMD HD6970 and not much behind the GTX570. 

3D Mark 11

As we up the ante with the more shader driven 3D Mark 11 the results are even more impressive. Although at stock once again the card is hindered by its detuned clock speed, with everything overclocked we’re on a par with the vastly more expensive GTX570 when that’s at stock. It’s close enough to the HD6970, the current flagship of the AMD line, that you can’t deny its power.
