Gtx 660ti??

[RichieAMD]

Down below is my set up I want to move up to the Gtx660ti I want to know if is a better choice to run then both cards that I have now?




GeForce GTX 560 Ti FPB (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR x2 sli Mode
G.SKILL Sniper 16GB (PC3 10666)
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Deneb 3.4GHz quad core
CORSAIR TX Series CMPSU-650TX 650W
ASUS M4N98TD EVO AM3 NVIDIA nForce 980a SLI

560ti sli is about ~12% faster than a 580.
660ti (non sli) is about ~4% faster than a 580.

It would be a tiny downgrade.

Thanks a lot where do you find these charts so I can compare them next time

560ti SLI is a good 20-30% faster than a 580, and a 660ti is around 4-10% faster than a 580 (depending on which reviews you look at).

Thanks a lot makes me feel better that I am not out dated yet

@AmenX

20-30% is a too much.

I looked at a review from techpowerup, of a SLI 560ti (avg. performance @1920x) and compaired that to the 580. Its about 12%, no where NEAR 20-30%.

Maybe newer drivers, or a hard overclock, allows it to reach those levels.
But the review I read, tested in over 16 games + 4 GPU benchmarks,
and avg'ed out it was 12% faster than the 580.

I agree 560ti sli is easily 20% faster than a 580. However a single 660ti will give a better and smoother experience but if you don't face ms then just leave it.

100 / 89 = 1.12 or ~12% (above 100) differnce.

Where you people get this 20% faster easily from is beyound me.
Its simply not true, and saying so doesnt make it such.

When Techpowerup did a reveiw, and benchmarked it with alot of games,
its average was 12% faster than a 580.

(maybe newer drivers helped it since?, but back then it was 12% faster)
