It’s not often that a graphics card manufacturer goes through the trouble of launching a special, limited-run product just for the holiday season. But that’s exactly what Nvidia is doing with its GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core.

Given the name, you might expect this new card to be an unlocked and enhanced version of Nvidia’s existing GeForce GTX 560 Ti. But that’s simply not so. Recall that the GF114 graphics processor used in the existing GeForce GTX 560 Ti is already unfettered. All of its 384 cores are functional, leaving no disabled hardware to turn on. Rather, the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core is equipped with a cut-back GF110.

This GPU was first seen on the company’s GeForce GTX 580, slightly handicapped for use in its GeForce GTX 570, and now further trimmed back for the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core.

GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core Specs:

Compared to the GeForce GTX 580, two Streaming Multiprocessors (SM) are disabled; the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core utilizes 14 of the GF110’s 16 available SMs. Each functioning SM has 32 shader cores and four texture units. Five of the six 64-bit ROP partitions are left enabled, each capable of handling eight 32-bit integer pixels per clock cycle.

All told, the card has 448 shader cores, 56 texture units, 40 ROPs, and a 320-bit memory interface. Not surprisingly, its power demands necessitate two six-pin PCIe power cables. And because it’s one of Nvidia’s higher-end boards, the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core card supports two-, three-, and four-way SLI through its pair of SLI bridges. You cannot match it up to a standard GeForce GTX 560 Ti card, of course. It’ll only cooperate with other 448-core models. So, if you’d like to run in a multi-card configuration, buy these boards at the same time, since they’re not expected to remain available.

The GF110 GPU, as found in the new GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core

If this card’s specs sound familiar, that’s probably because they match Nvidia’s now-defunct GeForce GTX 470. You might also notice that the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core is essentially a GeForce GTX 570 with one SM disabled. And speaking of the GeForce GTX 570, the new card has the same 732 core, 1464 MHz shader, and 950 MHz GDDR5 memory frequencies.

Knowing what we know from past reviews on Nvidia’s existing cards, the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core should perform between the GeForce GTX 560 Ti and the GeForce GTX 570. For more information on the company’s line-up, check out the following reviews:

Nvidia made it clear to us that its GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core isn’t a replacement for any existing product. A limited supply exists, and it’s exclusive to Asus, Evga, Gainward, Gigabyte, Inno3D, Palit, MSI, and Zotac. This new card is only available in the USA, Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Russia, and the Nordics.

The circumstances of this board’s birth are somewhat strange. Perhaps Nvidia has a small collection of GF110 GPUs with two bad SMs, precluding them from use on a GeForce GTX 570. Or, it could simply be a product intended to fill a gap right before the holidays. It could even be a test case of sorts to see if there’s a market for something between the GeForce GTX 560 Ti and 570.

Pressed for more information, Nvidia let us know that our first two suspicions were dead-on. Like any chip manufacturer Nvidia bins its processors, and it has a number of GF110s with 14 viable SMs. It chose to put them into a limited product to drum up sales over the holiday season, and tah-dah: the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Core. No matter how few of these boards end up hitting shelves, though, it’ll stand or fall based on its performance per dollar, just like any other graphics card.

Video cards based on various versions of the GeForce GTX 560 graphics processor (Ti, SE, 448 Cores) have become one of the most successful solutions of the «green giant» in recent times, with each product becoming a popular offer in the market niche allotted to it (from $150 to $325) . Recall that our test lab has already visited several different models of video cards based on modifications of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560, and today on the example of the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC , we have the opportunity to introduce our readers to the most productive version of the GeForce GTX 560 — with the prefix 448 Cores in the title.

Unlike all other video cards of the GeForce GTX 560 family, the solution we are considering today is based on the NVIDIA GF110 core (Fermi architecture), which is also the central part of high-end video cards based on the GeForce GTX 570/580. Recall that the rest of the graphics accelerators on the GeForce GTX 560, in turn, are based on a simpler NVIDIA GF114 chip. Possibly the motivation for issue GeForce GTX 560 448 Cores , there was a large amount of accumulated rejected GF110 chips, or the company’s management, during the period of increased demand during the holidays, intended to release a decent video card for gamers that would fill the resulting niche between the GeForce GTX 570 ($ 350) and the GeForce GTX 560 Ti ( $250). Recall that, pursuing the same goals, AMD at the end of 2011 pleased gamers with the release of the “Christmas” AMD Radeon HD 6930, which, although not a direct competitor to the product under consideration today, has gained immense popularity due to a very attractive price-performance ratio and support of all modern technologies. It is also important that NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores and AMD Radeon HD 6930 were released in limited edition, so those wishing to purchase new items may need to hurry.

As a result, out of 512 stream processors in the «full» version of GF110 for the GeForce GTX 560 448 Cores GPU, only 448 CUDA cores were left active (14 active multiprocessors out of 16), as its name eloquently testifies. At the same time, the number of texture units has been reduced from 64 to 56, while the number of render units has remained the same at 40. The amount of GDDR5 memory is 1280 MB, and it interacts with the graphics core via a 320-bit bus, just like the GeForce GTX 570 standing one step higher. In general, it should be noted that, according to the characteristics of the GeForce GTX 560 448 Cores, closer to the GeForce GTX 570 than to the mass model GeForce GTX 560 Ti, and, therefore, the performance level should be appropriate. The table below shows the main characteristics of the old-new GPU in comparison with its predecessors and main competitors:

So, we move from theory to practical testing. As we mentioned above, today the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC graphics accelerator came to our laboratory, which is equipped with an enhanced power subsystem and a proprietary Twin Frozr III cooling system.

From the specifications table, we see that we have a significantly revised version of the graphics accelerator based on NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores. Besides the alternative cooling system and PCB design, the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC graphics card is slightly factory overclocked. So, the graphics core operates at a frequency of 750 MHz, and the video memory has an effective frequency of 3900 MHz (recall that the frequencies recommended by NVIDIA for the GeForce 560 Ti 448 Cores are 732 MHz for the graphics core and 3800 MHz for the memory). We will talk about the performance and practical benefits of the features of the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC video card a little lower, but for now, traditionally, we will begin our acquaintance with the product by looking at the packaging.

The medium-sized box that comes with the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III graphics card is designed in gray-blue colors and is very similar to the packaging of MSI’s Hawk and Lightning graphics accelerators.

It also features a hinged top cover that allows the user to view the product inside through a transparent plastic window without removing it from the box. In addition, the place on the hinged lid, as well as around the window, was used by the manufacturer to describe the characteristics and features of the solution. Let’s dwell on them in more detail:

• The power stabilization circuit used for the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC, according to the manufacturer, has as many as 7 phases (6 + 1) instead of 5 for the «regular» GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores, which should ensure stable operation of the card, both in normal mode and with serious overclocking.
• In the production of the video card, components of the so-called «military» class were used: high-quality solid-state and tantalum capacitors, chokes with ferrite cores. This should once again have a positive effect on the overclocking potential of the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC and reduce the heat dissipation of the power circuit.
• The values ​​of the three main voltages (on the GPU, memory and PLL block) can be changed by the user using the proprietary MSI Afterburner utility, which is included in the video card package or can be downloaded from the official website.
• The proprietary Twin Frozr III cooling system with five heat pipes, according to the manufacturer, should be very effective in cooling the video card at a noise level not exceeding 30 dB.
• The ability to switch the operation mode of the video card cooler using a special lever on the printed circuit board (MSI P/S Switch technology) is mentioned separately. The user has access to a «quiet» mode of operation and a mode of increased performance of the cooling system.

The reverse side of the package is less informative: here the user can only get acquainted with the minimum system requirements for a computer in which it is planned to install the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC, as well as the most basic characteristics of the video card, which presented in 29 languages ​​(including Russian). Note that the power supply in a system with an MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC video card must have a power of at least 550 W and be capable of delivering at least 38 A through the 12V line.

In addition to the video card itself, we found the following in the package:

• CD with drivers and utilities;
• DVI-to-VGA adapter;
• mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter;
• Two adapters from two 4-pin peripheral power connectors to one 6-pin video card power connector.

Not the richest package, however, for most users, this set of accessories will be enough for comfortable operation of the video card. Note that the manufacturer’s website and the sticker on the box itself indicate that the kit should also contain a bridge for combining two video accelerators based on the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores in SLI mode for joint calculations of graphic effects, but in our case, unfortunately, did not have.

The MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC graphics card has two DVI-I ports and one mini-HDMI port (capable of transmitting 7.1-channel audio). Given the presence of two adapters in the kit, users should not have any problems connecting a monitor, plasma panel or projector to the video card.

The MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC PCB is made on a dark brown PCB and, as we have already mentioned, has a unique design developed by MSI engineers. It is not surprising that the same PCB design was previously used by MSI engineers for the MSI GeForce 570 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC video card, because, in fact, these solutions differ from each other only in a slightly redesigned NVIDIA GF110 graphics core configuration.

Despite the use of an improved power converter, compared to the «reference» video accelerator on the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores, the length of the board has decreased by almost 2.5 cm, which will allow you to install the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition video card /OC into almost any modern Full-, Middle- and even Mini-Tower case.

The power stabilization system is made according to the 6 + 1 phase scheme using the uP6218AM PWM controller, which should provide good stability and high overclocking results. In addition, during the production of the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC video card, components are used that correspond to the Military Class II concept, which should ensure a long service life and lower heating of the power circuit elements.

To power the video card, in addition to the PCI-E connector, two 6-pin connectors are used, which are located on the side at the end of the board.

Dual SLI bridge connectors allow up to three NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores GPUs to be linked together to compute visual effects together. Recall that for other versions of the GeForce GTX 560 series graphics processors, only support for the 2-Way SLI mode was provided, which once again indicates the similarity of the new product with the current flagship solutions of the GeForce GTX 570/580 line.

The cooling mode switch, which we mentioned at the beginning of the review, is located on the edge of the printed circuit board, so that it is convenient for the user to use it. With it, you can choose one of two cooler operation modes to achieve the optimal balance between cooling system noise and cooling efficiency: Silent and Performance. We will talk about the practical application of MSI PS Switch technology a little lower in the corresponding part of the review.

The reverse side of the board is almost devoid of elements. The only exceptions are a few tantalum capacitors, which are located opposite the graphics core.

This is what the NVIDIA GF110-270-A1 (Fermi) graphics chip looks like, manufactured in compliance with the 40 nm process technology, which is the central part of the tested video card. For the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores , it includes 448 universal shader processors (or CUDA cores in NVIDIA terminology) and 40 rasterization units, respectively, and data is exchanged with video memory via a 320-bit bus. We repeat that the frequencies of the graphics core and memory are increased and amount to 750 MHz for the core, 1500 MHz for the shader unit and 3900 MHz for video memory. The rest of the characteristics are shown in the screenshot above.

In several previous articles, we have already noted that recently the GPU-Z utility allows you to determine such a characteristic of a graphics chip as ASIC Quality. A high value of this parameter indicates a low GPU supply voltage and allows us to hope for a better overclocking potential when using air and liquid cooling. At the same time, for experiments with overclocking using extreme cooling methods (liquid nitrogen, helium, dry ice), video cards with a low ASIC Quality score are better suited. In our case, the ASIC Quality value was 76.9%.

The memory with a total capacity of 1280 MB was assembled using ten chips of 128 MB each. Chips manufactured by SAMSUNG are marked K4G10325FE-HC04 and according to the documentation have an access time of 0.4 ns, which theoretically allows them to operate at an effective frequency of 5000 MHz. Given that the initially effective memory frequency (even with a small factory overclock) is 3900 MHz, you can try to speed up the memory using manual overclocking and get a good performance boost.

For the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC video card, the manufacturer used the proprietary Twin Frozr III cooling system, which we have already had the opportunity to familiarize ourselves with on the example of other products from the Taiwanese vendor. The cooler is in contact with the graphics core through a nickel-plated copper plate and consists of a massive aluminum radiator pierced by two 8 mm and three 6 mm nickel-plated heat pipes.

The radiator is blown by two Propeller Blade fans with an impeller diameter of 80 mm. According to the manufacturer, due to the special shape of the blades, these «propellers» generate 20% more powerful airflow compared to «normal» fans at a lower noise level.

A separate metal plate is designed to remove heat from the memory chips and field-effect transistors (MOSFET) of the video card power system, which are in contact with it through special thermal pads. Such a decision by the developers will not be superfluous at all, given the focus of the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition / OC on gamers and overclocking enthusiasts.

To increase the efficiency of the cooler, the contact of the heatpipes, both with the nickel-plated copper plate and with the radiator, is improved by solder.

We tested the graphics card using the FurMark utility to evaluate the efficiency of the cooling system. In the first case, the fan speed was set automatically by the video card in Silent mode, in the second case, the Performance mode was activated, and the third test option was to set the maximum fan speed manually.

So, in the automatic cooler control mode (Silent mode), at maximum load, the graphics core of the video card warmed up to 72 degrees, which is an excellent result, given the fact that the cooler worked at only 54% of its power, creating a minimum level noise, only slightly audible against the background of the overall operation of the system.

Switching to «Performance» mode increased the fan speed at maximum load by 7%, while the GPU temperature dropped by 5 degrees. It also almost imperceptibly affected the noise characteristics of the cooler. Once again, the difference between the «quiet» and «productive» mode of MSI PS Switch technology is not so significant, but sometimes the presence of such a function can be useful.

After we manually set the maximum rotation speed of the «propellers», the test was carried out again. At the same time, the cooling system began to noticeably make noise, but the temperature of the graphics core dropped to 63 degrees.

In idle mode, the operating frequencies of the core and memory are automatically reduced, which means that their heat dissipation also decreases. The temperature of the GPU in this mode is only 38 degrees, and the cooling system works almost silently.

MSI’s proprietary GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC graphics card cooler demonstrated a really decent cooling performance for the GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores GPU, and at the same time, in all operating modes, this solution remained much quieter in comparison with reference turbine.
