NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB Kepler Graphics Card Review
Battlefield 3
Battlefield 3 (DirectX 11)
Battlefield 3™ leaps ahead of its time with the power of Frostbite 2, DICE's new cutting-edge game engine. This state-of-the-art technology is the foundation on which Battlefield 3 is built, delivering enhanced visual quality, a grand sense of scale, massive destruction, dynamic audio and character animation utilizing ANT technology as seen in the latest EA SPORTS™ games.
Frostbite 2 now enables deferred shading, dynamic global illumination and new streaming architecture. Sounds like tech talk? Play the game and experience the difference!
Our Settings for Battlefield 3
Here is our testing run through the game, for your reference.
BF3 is a good start for NVIDIA and the GeForce GTX 660 Ti is able to beat the HD 7870 and even the HD 7950 Boost at 1680x1050 and 1080p resolutions. At 2560x1600 the HD 7950 and the GeForce GTX 660 Ti are basically a tie though, as they are at 5760x1080 for those of you with three displays.
Compared to the GTX 670, the GeForce GTX 660 Ti does see a 13-14% performance penalty thanks to the memory bandwidth changes.
PC Perspective Upcoming Events

nvidia has a beast of a video card with 660ti compared to 7950 even with an updated bios.
Thank you for sharing your info. I really appreciate your efforts and I will
be waiting for your next post thanks once again.
Feel free to surf to my web site booking hotels
All the retailers say there are non listed. I hope I don't miss the wave before they oos :/
I am looking forward to the upcoming price drops from AMD. Isn't competition great!?
i cant wait till the fall/winter when amd releases the 8xxx series of cards then nv sits and waits for a year than updates its lineup
Low TDP, cuda cores, and the MSI Twin Frozr looks promising to overclock. I might just move on from my 6970 to this card. 1344 Cuda cores should help in AE rendering.
How much more performous would you get if you have a gtx 670 and want to run that with the 660ti as sli
I doublt you can SLI a 660ti and a 670 together, and a 660ti is about 5-10% less powerful than a 670.
no you SLI a 660 ti and a 670 because are different cards you dick, you can only SLI the same card but they can be different makes. e.g MSI and EVGA, but they have to be the same GPU!

For building an SLI-System you need to use SAME GPUs.
2x GTX 670 OR 2x GTX 660 Ti.
GTX 670 + 660 Ti is not able to run in SLI-Mode.
660ti SLI is about a 20% performance increase from a single 680
Gtx 660 ti sli is in some cases even more powerful than the gtx Titan
how does sli scale on this card? will it be worth it towards highly oc'ed 600$ cards?
Hi, i play in a 25' Monitor, and i'm going to buy a 660Ti When the 660Ti goes "Cheap" here in Brazil ( A Lot Expensive here :\ ), but the question is i can Run the 660Ti i have risk of lose the 660ti With a 400w Power Supply ? with a core i3 2120 and 8 gb Kingston Memory ? Thank You. And Sorry for The bad english, i'm Training.
What brand PSU is it? A seasonic, thermaltake, or corsair 400w PSU likely would be okay, but the 660ti like a 450+. Other than that, your next upgrade would likely be a Quad Core i5, but even then the difference would be marginal between an i3 and an i5.
I Have a Corsair, but i was seeing that probably i will need to change my power suplly, i have Corsair 400CX, that only have a 6 pin connector.
Will faster GPUs help productivity with Folding at Home?
If you use the GPU-Client it will. The faster the card, the more points you'll get.
But in Folding@home the Radeons are much faster, then the GTXs.
Piece of writing writing is also a fun, if you be
familiar with afterward you can write or else
it is complicated to write.

Question for Tom:
--------------------
Do you think the 660 has been nerfed enough so that overclocked versions won't exceed a more expensive 670? Because that was a real problem with the 670 vs 680!
--------------------
at lower rez like 1080 don't think would take much OC to get it to around 670 speed, but that disabled memory controller is a ~25% memory bandwidth hit which would be a pretty size-able OC to get that back. I would say it could get in 670 ball park. This card was aimed at single monitor people.
wish i haddent bought a hd 7850
Why the 660Ti is between the 7870 and 7850 check out a real review on TomsHardware.com
Unless I missed it in my rather quick glance at this review (which has been discarded because of this fact), you should have included the 560 Ti. Did you just assume that no one was interested in the increase of power between the generation gap?
Should have used the 560 Ti, 570, and a 670 as a bench mark competitor - this review is useless with out it.
560ti is marginally faster than the 470.
You missed it, because its quiet obvious with as close as the 660ti performs to the 670.
And that comparison probably in the works anyway....
what Catalyst version you used for the test?
12.6 for AMD, 305.37 for NVIDIA. Article updated!
Can this one card be used to drive an HD TV, and 3 monitors in or out of eyefinity? I want to display a TV on on screen and have 3 monitor computing, not hardcore gaming but along those lines. I don't play many games, but I'm looking for a card that can do this. I currently run 3 heads off of a 6950/70 and run the TV off the z68 gigabyte iSSD mobo. THe current setup works, but I'm looking to upgrade...
