You will never find a 670 who really work at 980mhz .. they all run at 1054+ mhz.. ( minimum ) ... ( reference cards used in press review was nearly all run at 1084+ mhz in all games ). And ofc the 1033mhz can be from this particular card.
Yes but I'm assuming the same applies to the 660 Ti. The clock increase is enough to make me think there is a voltage increase there.
Can 15% higher clocks and 15% less shaders also lead to 15% lower TDP? The really annoying thing about this is, Nvidia can seed the absolute best of the chips (ie chips that would normally make 680's) to the press as "660 Ti's", when in reality the average 660 Ti chip could be an awful lot worse.
Yes but we dont know from what card is coming thoses GPU-Z screenshots, could be a OC models send from an AIB. On the other way, Nvidia could have set higher turbo clock speed, but this time the 1033mhz is the average, not the minimum "warranty" . Dont forget the turboclock is a good way to set a maximum tdp but trying to get the max performance within this limit.

Nvidia's gpu on next xbox? http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-the-curious-case-of-the-durango-devkit-leak
meh the news writer brought up 8 cores having to be based on atom. Once that happened it lost all credibility.

660Ti dat fast on 3DMark11...damn!

better than I expected, though I think the 1152cc ... expect the final specifications and especially to see how it goes in games, but it looks really promising

Let's see if that's actually the retail model, it surely doesn't fit the latest leaks etc

I dare suggest that it's supremely easy to judge actual performance for the games that he tested. For the non-ludicrous games he selected (that means AMD friendly?) such as Metro 2033, the performance degradation vs a GTX 670 is pretty much the same as for other, ludicrous, games. So it's hard to see what's so hard about extrapolation these results to other games...jimbo75 said:
Metro 2033 is a TWIMTBP game, along with 5 others in that list.
I guess I meant to say "Tweaktown is a joke and I wouldn't expect many other sites to conclude what Baxtor does".
yes you are right, or you will have the standard 7970 faster of the 680 in this game. ( Dirt3 results have become an easy way for control if their have re test the cards or just use old numbers ) As you mention more of 30fps difference is not due to the 7970GHZ clock speed there.
Funny, it totally contradicts the rumors with the 2 gpu-z screenshots and spec we have seen lately.. I dont know what is doing Nvidia but i start to ask me how many 660TI they have do this last 3 months.
The choice of games is strange, but in reality he have set 2 games who are faster on AMD cards ( Metro2033 and AVP ) and 2 games who are in general faster on Nvidia ( mafiaII and Just cause2 ).. Dirt3 sadly will not represent anything by using old drivers. ( note he can use Dirt: Showdown, it will be funny, but not fair for Nvidia )
