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.

The Card

Palit has chosen to go with a compact understated design for their card, the fan blades are located below the heatsink.


The card requires two slots in your system.


Display connectivity is two DVI ports, one full size HDMI port and one analog VGA port. Due to NVIDIA's architecture you may only use two outputs at the same time.

An HDMI sound device is included in the GPU, too. It is HDMI 1.4a compatible which includes HD audio and support for Blu-ray 3D movies.


You may combine up to two GTX 560 Ti cards from any vendor in a multi-GPU SLI configuration for higher framerates or better image quality settings.
