Graphics Adapter Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost with Modified Frequencies

Taking the lead from a number of Nvidia’s partners, Gigabyte has launched its own sample piece of GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost graphics adapter. It is differentiated primarily by modified GPU and memory frequencies, as well as by an improved PCB design. The latter employs Ultra Durable 2 technology that stipulates the implementation of high-quality hardware components, including ferrite chokes, solid-state capacitors, and Low RDS Mosfets transistors with reduced resistance on mode changes.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost is based on GK106 GPU, developed under 28 nm technological process. Its nominal frequency has been increased from the reference 980 MHz to 1033 MHz, while its dynamic frequency has been changed from 1032 MHz to 1098 MHz. This graphics adapter is furnished with 1 GB of GDDR5 memory, which clock frequencies have been, vice versa, lowered: nominal index dropped from 1502 MHz to 1250 MHz, dynamic index dropped from 6008 MHz to 5000 MHz.

This model employs PCIe 3.0 x16 internal interface; a set of external interfaces consists of a single DisplayPort, a couple of DVI ports, and a single HDMI port with a gold-plate socket. Cooling of all crucial components is assigned to a brand two-slot WindForce 2X cooler. It embraces two low-noise 100 mm fans, one copper heat pipe, and a voluminous heatsink with Triangle Cool design.

Graphics card from Gigabyte is supplied with OC Guru II software package that facilitates in optimization of all key parameters, in drivers update or BIOS adjustments. Similar to other products based on GTX 650 Ti Boost adapter, this card is known to support a range of innovative technologies: SLI, GPU Boost, FXAA, TXAA, Adaptive VSync, 3D Vision, Blu-ray 3D, DirectX 11.1, OpenGL 4.3.
