nVidia GTX760 Review
Introduction and Technical Specifications
Published: 25th June 2013 | Source: nVidia | Price: £209 |
Introduction
With the wonderful GTX780 and GTX770 fresh in our memory, it's time to take a look at the mid-range GTX760.
The GTX780 was based around a slightly reduced Titan core and the results bore out that extraordinary performance. The GTX770 was a tweaked version of the GTX680, and retained the excellent frame-rates we saw there. Today's review, the GTX760, is a rebadged GTX670.
The GTX670 was a superb card for the money, giving great performance at a relatively affordable price. The big change with the GTX760 is the price drop. Expected to hit the market at £210, it should be the choice for the majority of gamers on a budget.
Technical Specifications
So where have nVidia managed to save money to enable such a price cut? As far as we can see it's just in the amount of CUDA cores. The GTX670 has 1344 cores, whereas the GTX760 has one shader block disabled giving us a total of 1152 CUDA Cores. This fits it between the GTX660 and GTX670 in terms of pure cores, so let's see if the performance takes a hit.

Was really hoping to see how these were compared to the 660 TI cards, oh well. Sure hope they come in at a lower price, just can't see myself going for these for a new system otherwise, much rather stay with older cards then.Quote

But you're all intelligent people. We're sure that you can understand prices are subject to change... can't you?
However, on the off-chance that you're unable to read the price at the top, or reconcile the difference between a MSRP and actual street price, I've edited the first page to reflect the actual price.

It has a 240 euro suggested price over here, with prices at Aria coming in at ~190 pound I am indeed expecting ~225 euro prices over here, making it a pretty nice price, still a bit below the 7950 and 660 ti's. Still, it's hard to pick a gpu solution for higher than 1080p resolutions, looking forward to 760 sli tests

Reading through it now!
I've been excited for this card. If it's better/similair to the 660 Ti it might end up in my next rig
