Gigabyte Geforce GTX 560Ti (1Gb GDDR5) Review

 

Installation

We didn’t encounter any problems with installation. The Gigabyte Geforce GTX 560 Ti is a standard length card and takes up 2 PCI slot space, so make sure that you check you have a compatible chassis first. I recommend you use a power supply with minimum output of 600W and 2 x spare 6pin PCI-E power cables.

To test the Gigabyte Geforce GTX 560 Ti, we used a test rig based on the above components. It’s the same system we use to test other graphic cards. As you can see, it’s a pretty decent system, enough for what we need. Here are some of the benchmark software which we’ll be using:

  • GPU-Z
  • AIDA64 and PCWizard
  • 3D Mark Vantage
  • 3D Mark 11 (DX11)
  • Unigine Heaven (DX11)
  • Aliens Vs Predator (DX11)
  • Stone Giant (DX11)
