Palit GeForce GTX 560 Ti Twin Light Turbo 1 GB

Introduction

NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 560 Ti is considered a mature graphics card design now with future GPUs coming out soon. Palit has taken the opportunity to create some waves before the holidays with a new GTX 560 Ti, called GTX 560 Ti Twin Light Turbo.



The naming scheme already describes the highlights of the card: below the heatsink sit two quiet fans, lit in red, which creates an interesting soft lighting effect. In terms of performance, Palit has increased their card's clocks to 835/1025 MHz up from 823/1002 MHz on the reference design.
