Test Setup
In testing the Asus Striker GTX 760 Platinum, I am now using a newer system (compared to my old Sandy Bridge setup) powered by a 4th generation Intel Core i7-4770K Haswell processor and an Asus Maximus VI Impact motherboard. The full specifications of the system I used are listed below:
Operating System: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Impact
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770K @ 3. 9GHz – 4.2GHz
CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro h205
Memory: Kingston HyperX Beast DDR3-2400 16GB
Graphics card: Asus ROG Striker GTX 760 Platinum 4GB
Hard Drive: ADATA XPG SX900 256GB for the OS and WD RE 4TB for game files
Power Supply: Corsair HX650 80 Plus Gold
Case: Cooler Master HAF XM
Case Fans Installed: 2x Cooler Master SickleFlow 120mm for intake and a Noctua NF-S12A PWM for exhaust
Below is a photo of the Asus Maximus VI Impact with the Striker GTX 760. The graphics card is even larger than the motherboard!
Below are photos of the Striker in action. The system was running on idle, that’s why the ROG logo turned blue. At the same time you can see the fancy red LED path on its PCB and two other LEDs indicating that power is properly connected.
Aside from the components mentioned above, I used the driver version NVIDIA Force Ware 335. 23 for Windows 8.1 64bit. I used TechPowerUp’s GPU-Z to monitor the graphics card’s settings, and I used Asus GPU-Tweak 2.5.2.2 to monitor its temperature and the status of the card. In monitoring the frame rates while gaming, I used FRAPS to get the minimum, maximum and average frames per seconds.
For the synthetic benchmarks, I used 3DMark 11, 3DMark Firestrike and Firestrike Extreme, Unigine Engine Heaven and Valley benchmarks, and Final Fantasy XIV: A Real Reborn Character Creation Benchmark tool. Whereas for the game benchmarks, I used several games, a combination of not-so-demanding games to graphics extensive games like Crysis 3.
All benchmarking tools and games are configured to their highest possible settings at 1920×1080 display resolution. I didn’t have the chance to test it at a higher resolution or in multiple display settings since I was limited with the monitor I currently have.
Overclocking the Asus ROG Striker GTX 760 Platinum 4GB
I was also able to overclock the Striker further, but I used a third party software (MSI AfterBurner), since the Asus GPUTweak 2. 5.2.2 won’t allow me to go beyond an offset of 600 (the limit) and the maximum memory clock was only 1625MHz. But by using the third party software I was able to push the memory clock to 1852MHz, a GPU clock speed of 1135MHz and a Boost clock of 1200MHz. In Addition, I was able to go beyond those settings, but it became unstable on some benchmark tests. So I decided to settle on said settings instead.
Now, you might be wondering why the memory clock speed is only 1852MHz? You might have read from other sites that they were able to reach above 6000MHz or even 6800MHz of memory clock speeds. The answer lies in the tools used. The GPU-Z reads it differently from GPU Tweak and AfterBurner. As you can see from the screenshot below, GPU-Z reads the actual memory speed of 1852MHz, but the Asus GPU Tweak shows the effective memory speed which is 7400MHz already. I don’t know how the AfterBurner reads the memory clock speed, but it looks like the effective speed is divided by two which is 3703MHz.
Temperature and Fan Noise
On idle to light load, the Striker GTX 760 runs very quiet, even at full load it is still generally silent at 30% to 40% rotational speed. You will start to hear noticeable noise once fan speed reaches 50%, and it gets irritating once the fan speed reaches 70% and above. As for temperature, it is summer here and the room temperature is around 34°C. The GPU Tweak reported 35°C while GPU is idle, 40°C to 50°C on medium load. On full load, the temperature reached up to 85°C at 60% fan speed.
Benchmarks and Results
Below are the benchmarks results for the synthetic tests:
Out of the box the Striker GTX 760 has a higher clock settings compared to the reference one. And it’s also clocked a tad higher compared to the GTX 760 DirectCU II OC variant. Overclocking the Striker GTX 760 further improved the performance just a little bit. But I think it would be impractical to overclock it further for your day to day and gaming use. Not only will it result in more heat and power consumption, but the performance gain is not that high as well. So sticking to its stock settings (which is already overclocked compared to the reference) would be, in my opinion, the optimal way to use this card.
Above are the frames per second I got while testing the card. I didn’t compared the results with the results I got while testing the Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC, since I was using a different (older) system when I tested that card. Not to mention, the FPS was recorded in different levels or environment of the games.
Pushing the resolution higher, specially in multiple displays or in 4K resolution, will definitely lower the frames per second. Nevertheless, the overall gaming experience with the Asus Striker GTX 760, compared with the other GTX 760, was great.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 2GB Review (Page 13 of 13)
Page 13 — Overclocking and Conclusion
One of my favorite thing about Gigabyte’s graphics cards is the company supplies an excellent utility for tuning called OC Guru II. As its name suggests, it is a utility used for tuning the performance of your video card. It allows the voltage of your GPU and memory to be adjusted for overclocking, fan speed control, as well as power saving features. On a side note, Gigabyte’s OC Guru II has one of the best fan speed control features I have ever seen; it allows a six step fan speed adjustment based on temperature. You really can’t ask for more.
With the latest software revision, I got it installed on my test platform, and immediately got to work. The simple condition for my overclocking procedure is to see how far I could go without adjusting the voltage. As you can see in our screenshot above, the GTX 760 core did surprisingly well in this area — Gigabyte already has a 105MHz core overclock from the factory, and I managed to squeeze an extra 110MHz out of that. The net figure is 1195MHz GPU with 1260MHz boost, which translates to an awesome 22% over NVIDIA specifications, or 10% over Gigabyte specifications. To verify stability, I run a burn in test using Furmark. I also scan for artifacts in in addition to testing for stability using this program. Since Gigabyte neglected to overclock the memory from the factory, here is where our work comes in handy. Starting from 6008MHz effective, our Hynix H5GQ2h34AFR memory ICs reached 7368MHz without any problems, a whopping 22% over NVIDIA specifications. Remember — this is all done at stock voltage.
Our Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 2GB was able to clock 22% over NVIDIA base clocks for both core and memory. To see how it performs, I ran Fire Strike Extreme in 3DMark, and got a score of 3053. The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 2GB (Which is overclocked slightly from the factory) delivers a score of 2877 in base form, which is not bad at all.
——————————————
Is it a mere coincidence that my introduction for the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 2GB review has the exact same theme as my conclusion for the Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 2GB OC review? Can this theory be further reinforced by the fact that the manufacturer logo photo below has almost the same composition as the last one as well? Actually, believe it or not, it is, indeed, a mere coincidence. Since I wrote the Gigabyte 7870 review over a year ago, I don’t recall a thing about it (Actually, I am not going to lie — I don’t even remember what I wrote about a month ago, let alone a year, haha). So when I pulled up my 7870 article to see how it was closed off, even I was surprised at the similarities both pieces of writing share. Well, now you can know that even after a year, nothing much has changed in my thought process. And fortunately, neither has Gigabyte. The company’s product based on NVIDIA’s latest GeForce chip continues their excellent tradition of following a familiar formula: High quality hardware with an awesome cooling system. Now let’s be fair. What do you want changed? Low quality hardware with a terrible cooling system instead? I think not. I am glad Gigabyte stuck with what they knew best, and refined it to make it better. The fan speed is properly programmed from the factory; spinning at a leisurely 20% until the load kicks in — and even at that, it does not get loud. The WindForce 3X cooler does a fine job at keeping the GPU nice without the need to spin at 100% and emit Dustbuster levels of noise. As it comes with Gigabyte’s excellent OC Guru II software, fan control and overclocking is a breeze. Yes, the Gigabyte GTX 760 overclocks very well. For about $260 at press time, this is a graphics card that will appeal to mainstream performance enthusiasts and, of course, silent PC enthusiasts, too.
Gigabyte provided this product to APH Networks for the purpose of evaluation.
Since April 30, 2007, Number Ratings have been dropped for all CPUs, motherboards, RAM, SSD/HDDs, and graphics cards. This is to ensure the most appropriate ratings reflected without the inherent limits of using numbers. Everything else will continue using the Number Rating System.
More information in our Review Focus.
The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 2GB stays true to the company’s video card formula by offering incredible quality and value to everyone, whether you are a gamer with a mainstream budget, or a silent PC enthusiast who refuses to compromise on performance.

Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC Review
Introduction
Before I begin, I would like to take the opportunity to thank Low Chern Lin (aka Lucidlts) who has invited me aboard Tech-Critter. Such a great pleasure to be able to share my passion together with my other brothers-in-arms. ? Today we will take a look on Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC. It is a trademark non-reference model from Asus, bearing the renowned Direct CU II heatsink, in which flattened heatpipes are in direct contact with the GPU, enhancing heat dissipation. The Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC is a factory overclocked rendition of the GTX 760. It comes clocked at 1006 MHz (1072 MHz boost clock), with memory speed running at a default 1502MHz (6008MHz effective GDDR5).
For this review, I will compare it with the Zotac GTX 760 AMP! Edition which we first had a look here not too long ago. Let’s see how the Asus card bearing a small factory overclock (OC) can fare against one of the highest overclocked GTX 760 in the market.
First looks
Pretty basic bundle, consists of a speed setup guide, driver disc and power adapter cable.
Here we can see the Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC in all its glory. Notice how it is quite reminiscent of its bigger brother, the GTX 780 DirectCU II OC. It is based on the similar 17 cm long PCBA that first made its debut on the Asus GTX 670 Direct CU Mini, which is very suitable for those looking for small builds. Overall card length is roughly 22 cm long and it takes up two slots in your system. It requires only a single 8-pin power connector, as compared to the reference model which requires two 6-pins.
We can see a glimpse of the proprietary DirectCU II cooling solution employed on the card. It utilizes two 6mm + two 8 mm nickel plated heatpipes which is in direct contact with the GPU. In a short while, we’re going to see how significantly superior the cooling solution is.
The card is now plugged in and ready to be powered up.

Testing is carried out in a non air-conditioned room.
GPU-Z screenshot
Testing
All tests are carried out at the card’s default speed and no overclocking is done.
Basically, we see neck-to-neck performance with the Zotac GTX 760 AMP! Edition.
Synthetic benchmark results, nothing unusual.
This is where the DirectCU II cooler is starting to show its potential.
Conclusion
In summary, I find that the Asus GTX 760 Direct U II OC is on average only 1.59% slower than the faster clocked Zotac GTX 760 AMP! Edition. In terms of gameplay experience, this isn’t something tangible that you are going to experience anyway. The superior DirectCU II cooler managed to keep the max load temperature well below Nvidia’s default temperature target of 80°C (getting only 68°C). The card managed to hit a max boost clock speed of 1150 MHz, which is pretty high despite its lower base clock speed of only 1006 MHz. To further add on to my initial conclusion on the Zotac GTX 760 AMP! Edition that I first reviewed here, this card can only manage to hit its guaranteed boost clock speed of 1176 MHz, while temperature hit a high of 81°C. In some ways, I believe this holds true to Nvidia’s new GPU Boost 2.0 algorithm, whereby the GPU will try to boost as high as possible within its defined thermal envelope of 80°C.
The Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC certainly does pack a whole load of surprises despite its diminutive appearance. I could really find no flaw with its design and I highly recommend this customized GTX 760 to anyone looking for a quieter and higher performing card, right out of the box. Best of all, it comes in an all black PCBA and coupled with a nice cooler with a hint of red; I am sure it would go well with any build. However, it is not really cheap here in Malaysia, as it bears a SRP of RM1199. A reference GTX 760 from either Leadtek or Zotac could be obtained from as low as RM799, so that really does make a whole lot of difference. Well, that does it and I hope all of you had a good time reading up on my review once again. ?
Pros:
• Performance is on par with one of the highest overclocked GTX 760 (Zotac AMP! Edition), despite its lower base clock speed
• Very silent and efficient cooler
• Suitable for small builds
Cons:
• Expensive for a GTX 760, especially in the current local Malaysian pricing (RM)

While a 4 per cent core overclock is welcome, the hugely improved cooler and power delivery circuitry makes the Twin Frozr OC a prime candidate for some high-level overclocking. Happily MSI’s Afterburner software is one of the best when it comes to extracting extra MHz from your GPU, so we set about pushing the Twin Frozr OC to its limits.
We were surprised though, to find out just how high those limits were. The GPU Boost base clock easily passed 1,100MHz, finally hitting stability issues at a whopping 1,175MHz; while it would load into games and boost to a mighty frequency of 1.3GHz, it wasn’t stable enough for 24/7 use, even with the extra 12mV afforded by overvolting. Instead we dialled the base frequency back to 1,170MHz, with the GPU boosting constantly to 1,293MHz under load. This is a tasty 20 per cent improvement over a stock GTX 760 2GB and 14 per cent increase over the card’s factory clocks.

The memory also proved incredibly open to overclocking, going way beyond the 6GHz effective stock frequency. 7GHz was easily surpassed with us eventually settling on a stable memory frequency of 1,902MHz (7.6GHz effective). This huge 27 per cent increase boosted the card’s memory bandwidth from 192GB/sec to 243GB/sec, and is frankly an outrageous degree of overclocking headroom for any graphics card, let alone a £220 model.
What’s more, the Twin Frozr cooler barely registered the overclock, despite system power rising by 25W to 311W. The GPU temperature did rise slightly to a delta T of 43°C, but the cooling fans remained very quiet, spinning at just 1,140RPM. This excellent cooling meant that the Twin Frozr OC’s boosted constantly to its 1,293MHz maximum boost clock, under a variety of circumstances, without becoming noisy or intrusive, something that certainly can’t be said for cards equipped with the stock cooler.
Overall the Twin Frozr OC’s overclocking package is simply epic; intuitive software, awesome, low-noise cooling and the overclocking headroom to push the card 20 per cent faster.
We almost couldn’t believe the card could run such high clocks stable, but after 24 hours of stress testing we were left pleasantly surprised as it continued to chew through benchmarks at its maximum frequencies without breaking a sweat.
The minimum frame rate in BF3 at 2,560 x 1,600 with 4x AA rose 17 per cent to 41fps, easily surpassing the GTX 670’s 36fps and coming in just five per cent slower than the GTX 770 2GB. Crysis 3 saw a similarly impressive increase at 1,920 x 1,080, as the minimum frame rate shot up from 40fps to 47fps, just 1fps behind the GTX 770 2GB. If those frame rates gains aren’t enough, a score of 1,774 points in Unigine’s Valley benchmark is a 15 per cent improvement and, amazingly, actually marginally faster than a GTX 680 2GB.

Opis produktu
2GB pamięci RAM GDDR5
Graj, ciesz się doskonałą jakością obrazu i płynną pracą dzięki 2GB pamięci RAM GDDR5. Trzykrotnie wyższa wydajność GDDR5 w porównaniu z poprzednią wersją pamięci RAM wykorzystywaną w kartach graficznych gwarantuje niczym niezakłócone działanie, znacznie większą szybkość, a w konsekwencji pozwala zrelaksować się podczas oglądania emocjonujących filmów akcji lub grania w topowe produkcje. Wirtualne rozgrywki bez denerwujących zacięć i klatkowania? Dzięki 2GB GDDR5 przeniesiesz się na zupełnie nowy poziom gamingu!
Aktywny układ chłodzenia
Układ aktywnego chłodzenia karty graficznej składa się z zestawu radiatora oraz wentylatora (jednego lub więcej). Radiator odbiera ciepło z rdzenia graficznego oraz rozprasza je dzięki dziesiątkom cienkich blaszek. Z kolei wentylator ma za zadanie skutecznie schłodzić radiator. Taki zestaw idealnie się uzupełnia i w większości przypadków oferuje najbardziej optymalne chłodzenie karty graficznej. Zapewnia dobry kompromis między niską emisją hałasu, a wysoką wydajnością, ponieważ prędkość wentylatora jest zależna od aktualnego obciążenia układu graficznego: kiedy jest ono niskie wentylator obraca się niemal bezgłośnie. W momencie wzrostu obciążenia prędkość wentylatora również wzrasta, zapewniając wydajne chłodzenie całego układu.
Alternatywą dla chłodzenia aktywnego jest całkowicie bezgłośny układ pasywny, gdzie stosowany jest sam radiator bez wentylatora. Znajduje on jednak zastosowanie jedynie w mało wydajnych kartach graficznych z niższego segmentu, które nie generują wiele ciepła.
Nieliczne, najwydajniejsze jednostki mają także konstrukcję fabrycznie przystosowaną do chłodzenia wodnego. Jest to rozwiązanie droższe i bardziej skomplikowane od chłodzenia aktywnego czy pasywnego, jednak zapewnia najwyższą wydajność.
Złącze DisplayPort
Kartę wyposażono w jedno złącze Display Port – to uniwersalny interfejs cyfrowy, który umożliwia podłączenie do konfiguracji monitora, systemu kina domowego, projektora i innych kompatybilnych urządzeń. Pojedyncze złącze Display Port będzie w pełni wystarczające do podstawowej konfiguracji komputerowej z jednym wyświetlaczem lub do rozbudowanych zestawów, w których kolejne monitory podłącza się do innego rodzaju złącz na karcie graficznej.
Złącze DVI
Na tej karcie graficznej znajdziesz sprawdzone złącze DVI, które możesz wykorzystać do podłączenia kompatybilnego monitora. Standard ten umożliwia przesyłanie obrazu w wysokiej jakości i rozdzielczości bez opóźnień i przycinania, co jest zasługą optymalnej przepustowości złącza i wysokiej częstotliwości odświeżania. Karta z pojedynczym złączem DVI sprawdzi się w podstawowych konfiguracjach z jednym monitorem albo w bardziej rozbudowanych, w których dodatkowe ekrany są podłączone do innych złącz na karcie.
Doświadcz nowego poziomu rozgrywki
Ten model karty wyposażono w złącze PCI Express 3.0 x16, co zapewniło zarówno świetną kompatybilność z licznymi płytami głównymi, jak również bardzo wysoką przepustowość. Zdecydowana większość kart graficznych z różnych przedziałów cenowych dysponuje właśnie tym typem złącza. Będzie to więc odpowiedni wybór praktycznie do każdej konfiguracji.
Karta graficzna oparta na chipsecie nVidia GeForce GTX 760 ze złączem PCI-Express 3. 0 x16, wyposażona w 2 GB pamięci RAM GDDR5, chłodzona za pomocą radiatora i dwóch wentylatorów. Charakteryzuje się szyną danych 256 bit i maksymalną wspieraną rozdzielczością 2560 x 1600. Obsługuje standard generowania grafiki DirectX 11.1 i OpenGL 4.3.

Karta jest rewelacyjna. I tak 90%gier nie jest w stanie wykorzystać jej potencjału (tylko gry MMO mogą). Najlepsza karta do 1000 zł, cicha, szybka, możliwość ustawiania OC, nawet 5 latek sobie poradzi.
- ZALETY:
- + Małe rozmiary
- + Świetne chłodzenie (lepszej wersji nie znajdziecie u żadnego producenta)
- + Bardzo dobre wyniki w najnowszych grach, w porównaniu do droższych Radków.
- + Cicha
- + Dobrze sobie radzi nawet ze starą płytą główną (bez PCI 3.0 czy 2.0) i starym prockiem.
- WADY:
- — Obecnie brak 🙂

Porządna karta — takiego produktu spodziewałem się za tę cenę. Ale trzeba sobie uczciwie powiedzieć — nie jest to topowa półka. Jeśli chcemy naprawdę wysokiej wydajności w najnowszych tytułach na najwyższych ustawieniach, trzeba cenę przemnożyć przez 2.
Do full HD jest to dobry kompromis ceny i wydajności.
- ZALETY:
- + wiatraki nie hałasują i płynnie przyspieszają w razie potrzeby, bez nagłych, słyszalnych zrywów
- + podkręciłem grafikę z ciekawości o 25MHz dając pobór prądu na 103% bazowego — działa, nic nie spłonęło — w testach, które z reguły obciążają kartę bardziej niż gry, przy większych wartościach OC grzała się do 90+ stopni C, ale myślę, że podczas grania w wymagające tytuły spokojnie uciągnie +40-50MHz
- WADY:
- -jak kupowałem, miała tendencję do drożenia, a po 2 miesiącach jest o 30zł tańsza 😛
Karta działa świetnie. Jeżeli ktoś chce sprawdzić jej maksymalną głośność raz dwa ustawia w GPU Tweak chłodzenie na maksa i może sprawdzić. O ile ktoś nie trzyma komputera przy głowie, nie powinien mieć problemów z hałasem.
- ZALETY:
- + Bardzo wydajna, Rome Total War na na Ultra w deszczu nie spada poniżej 30 klatek (zwykle mam w bitwach powyżej 60) przy największych armiach. 60 klatek w SWTOR, GW2 na ultra nie spada poniżej 40 przy większej akcji.
- +
- + Karta jest bardzo mała, krótsza o 1/3 w stosunku do konkurencyjnych modeli dlatego zmieści się w każdej obudowie.
- +
- + Świetne chłodzenie.
Karta rewelacyjna w tym zakresie cenowym. Mimo nowszych konstrukcji daje sobie doskonale radę z nowymi tytułami. Kompaktowe rozmiary, dobrej jakości, ciche i wydajne chłodzenie to jego atuty. Temperatury idle 33st C, stress około 68st C. Polecam w 100%
- ZALETY:
- + Przyzwoita wydajność, wersja OC, ciche i wydajne chłodzenie, kompaktowe rozmiary
- WADY:
- — nie stwierdziłem

- WADY:
- — brak wejścia D-SUB
Opinia potwierdzona zakupem
Najlepsza karta jaką miałem, dźwiga wszystko na full detalach, w Wiedźminie 2 z ubepróbkowaniem najmniej 20 FPS. Wyłączając zbędne bajery około 60. Ale myśląć przyszłościowo o mocnych komputerach, lepiej trochę dozbierać i kupić coś mocniejszego albo złożyć 2 kary w CF.

Zotac GeForce GTX760 AMP! Edition
Björn Endre
June 25, 2013
Hardware, NVIDIA, Reviews & Articles, Video Cards/Graphics Cards
3 Comments
NVIDIA continues to push out GPU’s in the 7xx-series and today it is time for the GTX760 , a mid-level card that will replace the GTX660 Ti. Zotac sent us their pre-overclocked Zotac GeForce 760 AMP! Edition-card, which turned out to be a good performer.
The GTX760
Just like the GTX680 and the GTX770 the GTX760 is based on the GK104 Kepler. The speeds have been trimmed down a bit so it fits the price point it is being sold at.
This is the specifications for the reference GTX760. Since this is a pre-overclocked AMP!-edition card it means Zotac has increased the base clock and memory speeds a bit.

Manufacturing process | 28nm | 28nm | 28nm | 28nm | 28nm |
Price | $499 | $649 | $399 | $249 | ~$249 |
What we get is a 12% increase in base clock from 980 MHz to 1110 MHz and a minor 3% increase in the memory speed from 6008 MHz to 6208 MHz.
GTX760 features
We cover the full set of features of the GTX 760 in our main article so here is just a short summary.
Adaptive Temperature Controllers – stops the fan-speed to ramp up all the time making it quiet.
GPU Boost 2.0 – This allows you to set a thermal target, which then allows the card to run faster as it dynamically overclocks the card until it reaches the target temperature. This can be combined with increasing the voltage.
Adaptive V-Sync – Adaptive VSync is Nvidia’s way of providing a smooth game playability even when the frame rates falls below 60 fps. With the Adaptive VSync, the FPS no longer drops to the lower refresh rate that the monitor supports. Instead the VSync will automatically be turned on and off depending on the on the frame rate. When the FPS dips below 60Hz, VSync will be turned off and when the FPS recovers to 60 FPS, VSync will once again be enabled.
GeForce Experience Software – The GeForce Experience-software is now out of beta and is extra interesting for the GTX760 as it helps mid-level and low-level cards to get the best out of games without having to sacrifice to much visual fidelity.
The Card
As with the Zotac GTX 770, this card does not use the reference cooler and instead uses Zotacs own special cooler which is supposed to make it quieter while allowing the card to run cool. The card is not long, especially when compared to the GTX Titan or GTX 780.
Here we see the heat-pipes that help cool the GPU and the rest of the chips. The card uses 2 6-pin PCI-express power connectors.
We get the same connectors as all the other cards: 1xDisplayPort and 1xHDMI, 2xDVI.
While Zotac includes games with their GTX Titan, GTX 780 and GTX 770 they have decided not to include anything with the GTX760. That is a bit of a disappointment but should keep the price down. What we get is a few adapters and a DVD with drivers, the Zotac overclocking software, Unigine Heaven benchmark, XBMC and Nero Kwikmedia.
Testing Methodology
The OS we use is Windows 8 Pro 64bit with all patches and updates applied. We also use the latest drivers available for the motherboard and any devices attached to the computer. We do not disable background tasks or tweak the OS or system in any way. We turn off drive indexing and daily defragging. We also turn off Prefetch and Superfetch. This is not an attempt to produce bigger benchmark numbers. Drive indexing and defragging can interfere with testing and produce confusing numbers. If a test were to be run while a drive was being indexed or defragged, and then the same test was later run when these processes were off, the two results would be contradictory and erroneous. As we cannot control when defragging and indexing occur precisely enough to guarantee that they won’t interfere with testing, we opt to disable the features entirely.
Prefetch tries to predict what users will load the next time they boot the machine by caching the relevant files and storing them for later use. We want to learn how the program runs without any of the files being cached, and we disable it so that each test run we do not have to clear pre-fetch to get accurate numbers. Lastly we disable Superfetch. Superfetch loads often-used programs into the memory. It is one of the reasons that Windows Vista occupies so much memory. Vista fills the memory in an attempt to predict what users will load. Having one test run with files cached, and another test run with the files un-cached would result in inaccurate numbers. Again, since we can’t control its timings so precisely, it we turn it off. Because these four features can potentially interfere with benchmarking, and and are out of our control, we disable them. We do not disable anything else.
We ran each test a total of 3 times, and reported the average score from all three scores. Benchmark screenshots are of the median result. Anomalous results were discounted and the benchmarks were rerun.

Synthetic Benchmarks & Games
We will use the following applications to benchmark the performance of the Zotac GeForce GTX 760 video card.

Benchmarks |

3DMark Firestrike & Firestrike Extreme |
Unigine Valley benchmark |

Bioshock Infinite |
3DMark 11
The new Zotac GTX 760 slots in just below the GTX680 and the GTX770.
3DMark 2013 – Firestrike
Again the GTX 760 just trails the GTX 680.
Unigine Valley
Setting: 8xAA, Ultra
In the new Unigine Valley-benchmark the GTX770 scores just below the GTX680.
Crysis 3
We used Fraps to record the framerate while running through the ship in the beginning of the game fighting a few guys, blowing up a crate and some other action.
Setting: 8xAA, 16xAF, Very High Texture resolution, Very High all other settings
It would not be a Crysis-game if it did not tax the system a lot. As evident from the scores neither card really is playable at these settings and we would need to turn off/down a few settings to use it in the game. This is a good game to use the GeForce Experience Software with, something we will look at a bit later in this review.
Bioshock Infinite
Setting: Using Adrenaline Benchmark Tool: Ultra, 16xAF
While the GTX760 is about 15% slower than a GTX680 it still produces very good framerates in this new game.
The GeForce Experience experience
We talked earlier in this review about the GeForce Experience Software that helps the user to set the optimal settings in a game depending on what card they have. Considering that we see that in some games the Zotac GeForce GTX760 AMP! struggles to produce playable framerates at the ultra high settings that we use we felt that it would be a perfect time to see what the program would suggest for changes to Crysis 3 and Bioshock:Infinite.
In Bioshock Infinite the software actually did not think we needed to change anything and if we look at the scores it is pretty obvious why. Sure, the card is slower than the other cards we have tested but with an average framerate of 53 fps at 2560×1440 it feels pretty unnecessary to start lowering the fidelity of the graphics.
In Crysis 3 though things are different. With an average framerate of 25 fps at 1920×1080 and 15 fps at 2560×1440 there is a lot of room for improvement. We let the program look up the best settings for the game. What the program suggested was to lower Anti-aliasing from 8x SMAA high to 1x SMAA low and to lower some of the other settings like shadows from very high to medium or high instead. Said and done we then ran the same benchmark.
First of all lets be clear that to us the image quality still was superb. It is obvious that you do not need high anti-aliasing when running at 1920×1080 or 2560×2440.
Just by changing a few settings we go from unplayable to great framerates. And that while still getting superb image quality.
Overclocking
Overclocking the GTX 760 is just as weird as the GTX 760, the GTX 770 and the GTX Titan. Since the card already is overclocking itself dynamically via NVIDIA Boost 2 you never are sure what you will end up with when setting a target clock in MSI Afterburner or Zotac Firestorm. We did a quick test to overclock this card and increased the target temperature to around 90C and allowed the card to use 105% if the power draw.
We had some issues overclocking the card. We could increase the base clock to 1200 MHz which is a 10% overclock but we could not increase the memory clock at all. And going over 1200 MHz gave us a “Driver not responding”-error in the newest 3DMark. It probably is a bit unfair to complain that we could not overclock the card even further since it already is overclocked out of the box but it always is nice when we can squeeze a bit more performance from the card. The 10% overclock only gave u about 5% higher score in 3Dmark so it might not be worth it anyway.
Summary
We have not found a price for the Zotac GTX 760 AMP! Edition in the US yet but looking at the prices in Sweden it looks like it should be similar to the other GTX760 cards which means at around $250. This is a great price for a mid-level card that is already overclocked. The only thin we really can complain about is the fact that it does not come with either the Assassins Creed or Splinter Cell-bundle that we see with Zotacs better cards.
OUR VERDICT: Zotac GTX 760 AMP! | ||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||
Summary: The Zotac GTX 760 AMP! edition card is a great mid-level card that comes overclocked out of the box. |

Valve is an interesting company that seems to try to be a lot of things at the same time. Games company, software hub/store and hardware company. Valve is all of these.
When it comes to hardware the company has had mixed success. I think many of us remember the Steam Machines. These compact computers running SteamOS, a Linux based OS, were supposed to make Windows PC’s obsolete for gaming. They didn’t succeed. Valve also released a specific controller, the Steam Controller, which also did not exactly set the world on fire.
In hindsight though both these products have paved the way for the product I am testing today, the Steam Deck, Valves attempt to compete with the Nintendo Switch in the handheld market.

In fact, most GTX graphics cards are already sold out because GTX is one of the best GPUs for mining, so in most cases you simply have no choice and have to buy what is in the store. But here are a few facts that may help you make a choice if you have one. But for me personally, the Gigabyte Geforce GTX G1 Gaming is an excellent choice, since the three fans installed on it, albeit not the most reliable ones, allow it to maintain a low temperature. Although FE graphics cards are usually famous for their rather high hashrates, they are one of the noisiest. It is probably the most popular choice among miners. Although this model is a little more expensive than the competition, you can get excellent hash rate and a quiet and durable cooling system from it.

Overclocking GTX 760
Saved In most cases, changing the protocol in the HTTP links is sufficient to bypass the total lock. We remind you that the site is always and completely accessible through Tor. The bottom line is this: I bought a Gigabyte GTX 2GB, bought a 3d Mark, ran the test, compared the results with the same gpu-cpu as mine, and got fucked by my own suction. I looked at the stats of the guys, and there was acceleration in all fields. Actually, I myself thought about overclocking, because some games do not have enough FPS for a comfortable game.

ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC 9 video card review0001
The introduction of the GeForce GTX 760 was one of the most exciting developments in the discrete graphics market earlier this summer. By releasing this solution, NVIDIA has set a new benchmark for mid-range gaming graphics cards. Using a slightly lighter version of the GK104 chip, the manufacturer managed to balance the characteristics well, which, coupled with the recommended price of $249, allows the new solution to become an object of close attention of prudent players. All video card manufacturers undertook to actively refine the GeForce GTX 760 in accordance with their internal standards. What did ASUS end up with, we will evaluate on the example of the older model in the new line — ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC .
The frequency formula for forced OS modification has been changed by the manufacturer. The graphics chip received a base 1006 MHz instead of 980 MHz. At the same time, the average value of auto overclocking is at the level of 1072 MHz, while for reference models this parameter is 1033 MHz. The adapter is equipped with 2 GB GDDR5 operating at the recommended 6008 MHz.

Considering the name of the model, it is easy to guess that the video card has at its disposal one of the modifications of DirectCU II proprietary cooling systems.
In this case, a fairly large radiator block is used, as for such cooler dimensions. Its dispersion area is noticeably larger than that of the reference model cassette. To speed up heat dissipation, the design uses four nickel-plated heat pipes.
Two of them have a diameter of 8 mm. As you can see in the photo, they are in direct contact with the GPU chip. A couple more 6 mm ones also allow you to accelerate the transfer of heat from the heat sink platform to the remote areas of the radiator block.
The external design of the cooler remotely resembles the cooler of the original version of the GTX 780, but in this case the protective casing is made of plastic, not metal, and the dimensions of these devices are incomparable. The cooler is blown by two 80mm axial fans.
ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC uses original circuit board. At the same time, the manufacturer remained within the original length of the PCB — 170 mm. Upon closer examination, it turned out that this board has already met us before. In particular, it is based on the most compact model on the market GeForce GTX 670 — ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU Mini .
The PCB is equipped with a five-phase (4+1) power regulator, which is controlled by a Richtek RT8867A controller. An element base with an increased margin of safety is used, corresponding to the Super Alloy Power proprietary concept. Power elements are located on the side of the fixing plate. The assemblies are additionally cooled by an aluminum radiator with small fins.
The video card uses Hynix H5GQ2h34AFR-R0C chips, which are rated to operate at 6000 MHz according to the specification. Microcircuits are placed on both sides of the printed circuit board, four on each. At the same time, they are cooled due to natural confection
As in the case with ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU mini, this video card uses a development called Direct Power by the manufacturer. Installed on the back of the PCB, a grounded copper plate improves the cooling of the PCB in the GPU area.
The manufacturer talks about a 15–17% difference, but in this case these are such subtle matters that it is difficult to confirm or refute in practice.
Auxiliary power is connected using a single eight-pin connector, while video cards based on the reference design have a pair of six-pin connectors. The adapter has an indication of cable connection. There are two LEDs next to the connector. Green lights up if the additional power supply is connected, red if you forgot to do it. The connector is positioned in such a way that the latch is located on the reverse side of the PCB. As a rule, such a refinement is used if the CO elements make it difficult to freely install or (more often) disconnect the power cable. In this case, there are even no potential difficulties with this, perhaps a similar feature will be used for other ASUS adapters.
The video card does not impose special requirements on the power supply. A model with a power of 500 W or more is recommended, delivering up to 38A to the mountain via a 12 V line.
Equipping the interface panel without any frills or unpleasant surprises. Two DVIs (DVI-I and DVI-D), as well as full-length HDMI and DisplayPort. With a similar arrangement of video outputs, traditionally, a part of the area of \u200b\u200bthe mounting plate is occupied by a grill that allows you to remove part of the heated air outside the system unit.

in a compact box. The package with the video card includes a small manual, a disk with drivers and the GPU Tweak application, as well as an adapter from a pair of six-pin connectors to one eight-pin.
In progress
The first thing you want to know about the video card with the original cooler is the efficiency of the alternative cooling system. This is where we started the practical part of the tests. It was especially interesting to get data on GPU heating, given that we had previously had the opportunity to test the reference GeForce GTX 760 adapter in action, and the efficiency and noise level of this solution cannot definitely be called the strength of the NVIDIA device.
The first start and 15-minute operation of the video card in idle mode showed that the used version of DirectCU II is able to cool the chip up to 30 degrees, while the fan speed is slightly less than 1200 rpm. The noise level is quite comfortable. On the open stand, the 150mm fan of the CPU cooler «screams» over the video card.
How does the video card behave under load? Upon completion of the test stages, the following peak values were recorded. During operation, the GPU temperature rose to 68 degrees, the fan speed increased to 2400 rpm.
Subjectively, the noise level in heavy modes is noticeably lower than that of the reference model, but lovers of silence will still need to adjust the fan operation algorithm, trying to balance the work of the CO.
Overclocking
Factory overclocking of the video card from ASUS is quite low. 2.6% of the base GPU clock speed is not a value that can be experienced in practice, except perhaps in the final diagrams. By increasing the chip supply voltage by 12 mV, the base frequency of the GPU was increased to 1121 MHz.
Memory «went» to 6920 MHz, instead of the original 6008 MHz.
Performance
Before evaluating the performance results, we note that the graphics chip of the previously tested reference GeForce GTX 760 overclocked to 1150 MHz, while the GPU of the video card in question dynamically accelerated to 1137 MHz under load. At the same time, the ASUS video card almost always operates at the maximum frequency, while the NVIDIA adapter reaches its limit occasionally, dropping the frequency after the GPU warms up to 80 C. This explains the certain scatter of results, which depends on the nature of the load. The test sample of the reference model has a very aggressive GPU Boost 2. 0 algorithm, the already tested original GeForce GTX 760 video cards accelerate not so actively.
Additional overclocking puts everything in its place. Fast and Furious allows the new product to become one step with the more expensive GeForce GTX 670.
Results
ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC is an interesting representative of the GeForce GTX 760 series of video cards, with the help of which NVIDIA seeks to reshape the existing ways in the segment of discrete mid-range video cards. The device on the GK104 demonstrates very good performance for its declared price. At the same time, the retail price of video cards after the initial hype has already approached the recommended one, so buying a GTX 760 now looks like a completely rational choice. The model from ASUS pleased with a small factory overclock, an efficient cooler and the possibility of additional boosting, which brings quite a noticeable performance boost. Particular attention to the ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC should be paid to owners of small cases, modest dimensions are an important feature of the considered model.

News from Spark — Review and testing of ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM 9 video card0001
Packaging and contents
ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM comes in a large box of high-quality cardboard corresponding to its status, decorated in the corporate red color of the ASUS gaming series. On the front side of the box, in addition to the logos of the manufacturer and the ASUS ROG series, there is only the name of the video card itself.
The list of system requirements for the computer in which the video card is planned to be installed is located on one of the sides of the box. Based on the recommendations, the power supply in such a system must have a power of at least 600 W, and its 12-volt line must produce at least 38 A. As for additional power, the novelty requires the connection of one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCIe cables .
To display an image on the ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM graphics adapter, a reference set of video outputs is provided:
-
• 1 x DVI-I;
-
• 1 x DVI-D;
-
• 1 x HDMI;
-
• 1 x DisplayPort.
The following permissions are supported:
Appearance and element base
As you can see, for the production of new items, a unique printed circuit board was developed, the dimensions of which exceed the reference analogue. However, despite the unique design, the basic principles of on-board elements arrangement remained unchanged: video memory chips are grouped around the graphics core; elements of the GPU power subsystem are soldered to the left, and video memory — to the right of it.
The tested video card is powered by an enhanced 8-phase scheme (six phases for the GPU and two for memory chips), while the reference version includes two phases less in the graphics core power circuit. As we already mentioned, the element base corresponds to the concept of Super Alloy Power. Its composition includes exclusively high-quality components: Japanese black solid capacitors, ferrite core chokes, as well as POSCAP tantalum polymer solid capacitors, which allows you to extend the life of the video card as a whole.
In addition to the PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot, ASUS STRIKER-GTX760-P-4GD5 is powered through two additional connectors located on the side of the video card. One of them is 6-pin, and the second is reinforced 8-pin. Recall that the reference design assumes the use of two 6-pin PCIe connectors.
To implement the NVIDIA SLI technology on the ASUS STRIKER-GTX760-P-4GD5, two connectors are traditionally used to connect the corresponding bridges, which allow you to combine two to four video cards for joint calculation of graphic effects. Recall that you can find the performance testing of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 in 2-Way SLI x16+x16 mode in the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 760 AMP review! Edition.
The novelty is based on the NVIDIA GK104 (Kepler) GPU in the GK104-225-A2 modification, manufactured using a 28-nm process technology. It consists of 6 active SMX units, 1152 universal shader pipelines (CUDA cores in NVIDIA terminology) and 32 rasterization units. As we have already said, in the nominal mode, the frequency of the graphics core was increased relative to NVIDIA’s recommendations and is 1085 MHz. Taking into account the support of the NVIDIA GPU Boost 2.0 technology by the product in question, in turbo mode the frequency of the graphics processor averages 1150 MHz.
The memory of the video card ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM, with a total volume of 4 GB, is assembled using 16 chips with a capacity of 256 MB each, manufactured by SK Hynix. The microcircuits are marked H5GQ2h34AFR-ROC and, according to the documentation, their nominal frequency is 6 GHz. Data exchange between the graphics core and memory is carried out through a 256-bit bus, which is capable of passing 192.3 GB of information per second.
Cooling system
The video accelerator with the installed DirectCU II proprietary cooling system occupies two expansion slots and has a total length of 299 mm (according to measurements in our test lab).
The cooler consists of a fairly large radiator, the design of which uses 45 aluminum plates, and two fans with an impeller diameter of 95 and 94 mm, mounted on a casing that covers the entire structure from above.
Three copper heat pipes with a diameter of 8-10-8 mm are used to evenly distribute heat over the entire area of the radiator. As a standard for DirectCU II coolers, the scheme of their direct contact with the surface of the GPU through a small layer of thermal paste is used. At the same time, they are securely soldered both to the fins of the aluminum radiator and to the copper base.
In the absence of load, the frequencies of the graphics core and memory are automatically reduced, allowing to reduce their power consumption and heat dissipation. In this mode, the temperature of the GPU did not exceed 26 degrees, and the level of noise generated was very quiet.
As a result, the proprietary DirectCU II cooling system proved to be a high-quality and powerful solution that can cope with the cooling of a factory-overclocked NVIDIA GK104 graphics processor without any problems. In the process of everyday use, you will not experience any discomfort, because with automatic regulation of the fan speed, the CO works quite quietly. Separately, we note that the results demonstrated by the cooling system are among the best among all the modifications of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 that we have tested so far.
Overclocking options
Using the ASUS GPU Tweak utility version 2.5.4.2, we managed to overclock the GPU to 1175 MHz. Thus, the increase was 19.9% relative to the reference value of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 model and 8.3% relative to the nominal frequency of the tested video card, which is an excellent result. And taking into account the work of NVIDIA GPU Boost 2.0 technology, its frequency averaged 1240 MHz. At the same time, the video memory was accelerated to 7708 MHz (an increase of 28.3% relative to the reference value).
Separately, we note that we failed to raise the voltage during overclocking.

Test results
The presence of a high level of factory overclocking and four gigabytes of video memory allowed the new product to surpass the reference version of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 by an average of 3%.
As for the accelerator NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti, which was replaced by NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760, ASUS STRIKER-GTX760-P-4GD5 turned out to be faster on average by quite a significant 12%. If you are looking for a more productive solution from the «green camp», then we recommend that you pay attention to the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 version, which outperforms the heroine of our review by an average of 18-19%, but it costs significantly more.
The AMD Radeon R9 280 would be the best red camp candidate to compare with the new product under test, but this card has not yet been in our test lab, so we used the slightly cheaper AMD Radeon R9 270X. It yielded to the model from ASUS by an average of 10-14%.
As a result, it can be noted that the ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM has excellent performance, which will be quite enough for a comfortable gaming process at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and high quality settings.
Terminals
The ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM (STRIKER-GTX760-P-4GD5) video card can be safely called, if not the best, then one of the best modifications of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760. It has a very impressive list of advantages and proprietary features, but it is completely devoid of any or cons. Of course, for the possession of such a successful graphics accelerator will have to pay a little more than for versions with a reference design. However, if you are interested in the highest quality, excellent element base, one of the best cooling systems, original design, excellent overclocking potential and higher performance due to the presence of factory overclocking, then the choice in favor of the novelty is obvious.
As for the features, in addition to the quite obvious higher cost, we can only note the large dimensions of the cooling system, which is easily justified by its excellent performance.
As a result, as you might have guessed, the ASUS GeForce GTX 760 STRIKER PLATINUM video card definitely deserves your attention if you are looking for a high-quality and productive model with excellent overclocking potential and nice appearance.

Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC review. What is Chinese factory overclocking?
Perhaps, any user who is at least somehow oriented in the market of computer components understands that most of the presented products are complete technical analogues that differ from each other in stickers, bundles and, of course, in cost. Buying a modern video card is often the choice of a reference solution at an acceptable cost. As it turns out, analogues are also found among modified products. Let’s present to your attention the video card Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME.
We have previously reported on the existence of the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME video card. The first mention of this manufacturer on our MegaObzor portal falls on August 2012. The announcement was associated with the appearance on the market of the Colorful iGame GTX 660 Ti ARES X video card.
I’d like to say a few words about the video card manufacturer — Colorful Company, Limited. This company was founded in 1995 and is popular in China, Korea and the United States of America. The company has a prominent position through the production of various solutions for prominent brands, in particular, such as Gigabyte. The rapid promotion of its own products on the market began in the early 2000s. The main focus of the manufacturer is on motherboards and video cards, many of the presented solutions in 2003 received well-deserved prestigious awards. In 2008, iGame series video cards were introduced. To date, most solutions are sold under the iGame series brand, which is well-deservedly popular in Europe and Asia.
Recently, Colorful has become famous for the release of an alternative version of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan graphics card, which is officially forbidden to upgrade. Despite these limitations, the company introduced a solution with a water block and announced plans to release a model with freon cooling Colorful GeForce GTX Titan Ultra Edition. Naturally, such announcements could not go unnoticed and were noticed by the public. Interest in older solutions led to the emergence of interest in younger products.
During the review of the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME video card, an interesting feature of the product was revealed — its indirect «related» links with the MSI GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming video card, which we have already considered earlier.
Contents
The video card comes in a black and silver box. On the front side, only the series and model of the product are marked. The back of the box contains some general information that does not introduce any specifics in relation to the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME video card in question.
The delivery set is budgetary and not surprising. The box contained a video card, instructions, a CD with drivers, and two PCI-Express power adapters. An individual feature of the latter is the presence of a braid.
Visual inspection of the video card
As you can see from the photo of the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC video card, it has a modified cooling system. As noted, the cooling shroud shares some similarities with MSI’s Twin Frozr cooling system, but unfortunately that’s where the similarities end.
The cooling system is also based on heat pipes — the used fans are smaller, operate at a higher frequency and, accordingly, with a higher noise level.
Like the reference version of the video card, the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC solution requires additional power supply via two six-pin PCI-Express connectors.
The video card has two connectors for NVIDIA SLI bridges, which allows organizing multigraphic configurations based on this video card.
The video card has a standard set of ports for image output — two DVI, one HDMI and one DisplayPort. Pay attention to the presence of a button for switching the active BIOS — Turbo and Normal. It allows you to overclock and return to the original values the operating frequencies of the video card. The button is located extremely inconveniently, since it completely stops the possibility of blowing out even a part of hot air from the cooling system outside the system unit.
Graphics card specifications
1. Core operating frequency: 980 MHz, turbo frequency 1033 MHz
2. Universal processors: 1152
3. Memory type: GDDR5
4. Memory capacity: 2 GB
5. Video memory operating frequency: 1502 MHz
6. Bus 256 bit
7. PCI Express 3.0 bus
8. Recommended cost: $250 US dollars
The Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC graphics card runs at overclocked frequencies only when the Turbo button is pressed. Pressing it leads to an increase in the base frequency of the core to 1020 MHz, and the turbo frequency, respectively, can increase to 1085 MHz.
Thus, we replenish our sorting list of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 series video cards by factory overclocking level:
1. Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 WindForce OC — 1085/1502 MHz
2. Palit GeForce GTX 760 JetStream 2GB- 1072/1550 MHz
3. EVGA GeForce GTX 760 Superclocked 2GB ACX Cooler — 1072/1502 MHz
4. MSI GeForce GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming — 1020/1502 MHz
4. Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC — 1020/1502 MHz
5. ASUS GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU II OC — 1006/1502 MHz
1. The temperature regime of the video card
GeForce GTX 760 — 35/84 C — idle / load in degrees
MSI GeForce GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming — 30/67 C — idle/load in degrees
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 WindForce OC — 35/67 C — idle/load in degrees
Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC — 32/67 — idle/load in degrees
Video card tested under the following conditions:
— 27 degrees in the room,
— the video card is installed in a closed case,
— there are no additional cooling fans in the case,
— the load is applied until the temperatures are completely stabilized for 15 minutes.
It’s nice to note that the installed cooling system on the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC video card does an excellent job. Moreover, it shows results comparable to more expensive solutions. As for the noise level from the fans, it is comparable to the reference cooling system from NVIDIA.

Conclusion
If we compare the performance levels of video cards, we can clearly see that the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC solution completely repeats the achieved results of the more expensive MSI GeForce GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming video card.
Externally, the MSI GeForce GTX 760 TwinFrozr Gaming and Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC video cards are almost identical, but, unfortunately, the similarities end there. The first video card works with less noise, and also constantly works at higher frequencies. The use of the second BIOS chip in the Colorful GeForce GTX 760 iGAME OC video card, of course, should be considered a plus of this solution, since the activation of a particular chip is performed by a separate button — overclockers will appreciate this opportunity.
