MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card
The manufactured goods for assess now was pending in our queue for a even as now, as such it is already unfilled on the Promote, yes yes. The MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card edition has arrived to the scene, and dang… it’s really excellent!
After the initial launch reference reviews NVIDIA’s partners released more bespoke solutions onto the promote for the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card series. The HAWK edition we test now, force as well have been called Lightning as we see a custom PCB with phase LEDs, voltage monitoring points, services class components, triple overvoltaging and to place some icing on the cake… the new TwinFrz III heatpipe cooler that will hopefully bring excellent temperatures versus low noise levels.
In this article we’ll take the MSI GTX560 Ti HAWK edition for a test spin. In the reference assess you guys cultured that NVIDIA has nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to the baseline performance of the GTX 560 Ti, the overclocking the makings even if was also really impressive.
And AIB/AIC partners will grasp that very much, so you’ll spot products clocked at core frequencies of 900 MHz and some of them will even beast break down attack that high threshold privileged.
The MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card tested now to be sure comes all bespoke and factory overclocked, armed with some services grade components and a robust build the dark PCB will carry a GPU clocked at 950 MHz and its reminiscence at 4200 MHz, thus both are a clad chunk quicker than the reference timer products.
To top equipment off, MSI place the Twin Frozr III cooler on this card and that admittedly does house a clad depression. As a upshot of that brilliant cooling we can really overclock this card (lacking voltage tuning whatsoever) accurate to 1 GHz, and that my acquaintances means right regard. Boost a modest additional voltage in there… and you’ll possibly pass the 1 GHz barrier, we did!
Facial appearance and specification MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card
Aah yes, yet another 560 Ti GPU to assess! So now I sought after to keep equipment nice and austere. The GeForce GTX 560 Ti is in fact the GF104 GPU, it is tweaked a modest to allow privileged timer speeds with a most likely decrease power draw. The GeForce GTX 560 has 384 Shader processor cores, 32 ROPs, and a 256-bit wide reminiscence boundary that connects to four 64-bit controllers with each 256MB reminiscence tied to it, so that’s 1 GB of reminiscence for the manufactured goods released now.
The GPU has holstered rather high GPU timer speeds, with 822 MHz core, 1644 MHz on the shader cores, and 4000 MHz (GDDR5 effective datarate) reminiscence, chunking out a very clad 128 GB/s in reminiscence bandwidth — reference of course.
Now most of all this sounds traditional eh? Yeah… dredge up the GF104 being used in the GeForce GTX 460 series? The new GF114 is in fact the basis of that IC, yet now with all shader processors enabled.
For the larger part of the specifications the two feel akin when it comes to shader processor regard, reminiscence bus and timer frequencies, the GTX 560 certainly will be a excellent chunk quicker and as you’ll learn a heck of an overclocker.
Reference specifications:
| Graphics card | GeForce GTX 460 768MB | GeForce GTX 460 1024MB | GeForce GTX 560 1024MB | MSI GTX 560 HAWK |
| Graphics Processing Clusters | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
| Streaming Multiprocessors | 7 | 7 | 8 | 8 |
| Shader processor | 336 | 336 | 384 | 384 |
| Feel Units | 56 | 56 | 64 | 64 |
| ROPs | 24 | 32 | 32 | 32 |
| Core Timer | 675 MHz | 675 MHz | 822 MHz | 950 MHz |
| Shader Timer | 1350 MHz | 1350 MHz | 1644 MHz | 1900 MHz |
| Reminiscence Data rate | 3600 MHz | 3600 MHz | 4008 MHz | 4200 MHz |
| Graphics Reminiscence | 768MB GDDR5 | 1024MB GDDR5 | 1024MB GDDR5 | 1024MB GDDR5 |
| Reminiscence boundary | 192-bit | 256-bit | 256-bit | 256-bit |
| Reminiscence bandwidth | 86 GB/s | 115 GB/s | 128 GB/S | 134 GB/s |
| Fab node | 40nm | 40nm | 40nm | 40nm |
| TDP | 150 Watts | 160 Watts | 170 Watts | 200 Watts |
If you look meticulously at the SM (Streaming Multiprocessor) partitions, then you can see and calculate that the 336 Shader processors based GF104 on the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card has in fact seven SM partitions. 7 are enabled = 336 Shader processors. The GF114 GPU has 384 shader processors, and has that last unfilled SM cluster enabled.
Okay so the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK card Ti is still based on a 40nm fabrication node, still has 1.95 Billion transistors and thus looks and feels like the GTX 460, yet now with 48 shader processors and accompanying PolyMorph Engine added, an superfluous 8 Feel units and sure, much quicker timer frequencies. So is the GF 114 in fact a GF104? Yep, it sure is.
All cards deriving and based on this GPU will be based on a dual or even triple-slot cooling design based on what the AIB/AIC partners rather and come with two dual-link DVIs and a mini-HDMI connector. HDMI will again pass signal through, counting bit streaming help for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master. Being a mid-range manufactured goods, only 2-way SLI will be allowable and thus you’ll only see a release SLI fiddle with/connector on the PCBs. Okay, the next stop will be an wide photo-spring out of now’s manufactured goods.
