The Geforce GTX 560 Ti was a great performing card in our benchmark tests. It was keeping up with and sometimes beating the AMD Radeon HD 6970, and bad drivers or not for the AMD card, that is still an amazing accomplishment. The GTX 560 handled the g...

Nvidia's GeForce GTX 560 Ti is ultimately a victim of circumstance. The performance at its price point is excellent, and the reduced power consumption shows that Nvidia is taking energy efficiency seriously. But it was dropped into a crowded market.AM...
The GeForce 560 Ti is indeed the card of choice for Direct X11 games, and my guess is that as new DX11 titles roll in with native support for tessellation (instead of an “afterthought” in most many games), the value of the 560 Ti will only become more obv...
Wrapping things up, for the last week now I've been spending a considerable amount of time going over two thoughts: 1) What do I make of the GTX 560 Ti, and 2) What do I make of the name? The latter may sound silly, but I'm almost positive it's the more i...
