MSI GeForce 650Ti - $110AR/FS w/ free Borderlands 2 (Newegg)

[Termie]

Good limited-time promo on two versions of the MSI GeForce 650Ti - both come with Borderlands 2, which is still worth about $30 on its own.

Overclocked to 993MHz with Cyclone cooler: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127704

In case the above becomes unavailable...
Overclocked to 954MHz: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127710


With performance equivalent to an HD5850 or GTX560, these prices are legitimately an improvement (finally) over last generation.

The model with the cyclone cooler is much better. The standard model is noisy.

How does this compare to 6850? my 6850 is having problems and was thinking about replacing...

*Edit* nvm, just read the last line in OP, got my answer...

I purchased this card with the cyclone cooler last month for the same price AR from Amazon. Since moving to TN I have to pay 9.75% sales tax on NE purchases.

Since the load voltage on this card is locked, the voltage control option in MSI Afterburner has no effect on the GPU core voltage. I put the card under 100% load and monitored the GPU core voltage at both +0 and +100 offset; it never changed from a maximum reading of 1.062V. Also the Power Limit (%) is grayed out. This is because the 650 Ti does not have the Boost Clock feature.

But even with the locked core voltage I was able to overclock the core clock to 1223Mhz and the memory clock to 1650Mhz, not too shabby. I left the fan on Auto. After an hour at full load the fan speed was at 37% and the GPU temp was 51C, cool and quiet.
