Last month i purchased Sparkle GTX 570 OC leaving the 560Ti DF option behind. To me i am more than satisfied with this GPU.

While browsing through Pakgamers, i hav seen people start claiming the 560Ti to be superior for 570 when overclocked.

Here are the GPU-z when stocked and over-clocked of 570.

Post the OC GPU-z of 560Ti here and suggest any benchmarking software to compete the result.

I have read that this OC edition can easily stable over-clocked to 850 MHz without voltage change and yes it actually can.

I don't think that you've heard people right.The thing is that the really high Clocked Versions of the GTX 560ti come in par and in some situations are even faster than a Stock GTX 570.Note,i didn't say an OC'ed 570.

The Second thing being that GTX 560 ti's Clock Speeds are definitely much more faster than a GTX 570,giving it an upper edge of reaching 1GHz on the core which actually is a really big thing in the world of GPU's and the fact that a GTX 560 ti's Texel Rate is even more than a GTX 580 which is again a very big thing to consider in favor of the 560.

The last thing being that it would take you now another 30K to SLi your GTX 570,whereas it would take another 20K to SLi a GTX 560 ti.
Reason being that,many people forgo a GTX 570 because its price incentive and just with 7K less,a person can get a Calibre 560 ti which would run against it at 1080P resolutions and trust me that,hardly anyone's got LCD's that go above 1080P resolutions here in pak.And if they do,then they would surely go for a GTX 580 than a GTX 560 ti :)

and Here you can see the Difference is Increasing with Increase of RESOLUTION the Extra Memory is Helping out as well
http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2011/01/25/nvidia-geforce-gtx-560-ti-1gb-review/7
Both reviews are using the reference 560Ti, The Thread Opener is asking comparison of an Overclocked 560Ti Vs 570.

@U4Usman An Oc'd 570 is the better performer here since it has a Higher Memory Bandwidth and an additional 100 Cuda Cores than the 560Ti DF, Even still the difference at 1080P would be slightly visible in many titles. Many users say that its a waste of cash for 460 users to go for 560Ti since the difference is only 10-15 FPS as seen in the review posted by Pleasant, While the same guys consider a difference of 5-10FPS a substantial increase of 570 over 560Ti (Same Benchmark).

As Ali noted, Here in Pak we have a limited amount of Display's which support resolutions higher than 1080P and 3D Steroscopic which are the only reasons to go for Higher Memory/Powerful cards or you can instead go for GPU's with higher Memory Buffer (2GB - 4GB) such as the Radeon HD 6000 Series, Too bad Geforce cards with additional memory aren't available here otherwise there are tons of 2GB variants of the 560Ti.

While browsing through Pakgamers, i hav seen people start claiming the 560Ti to be superior for 570 when overclocked.
That's True! Its faster then a stock GTX570, An Oc'd 570 easily outperforms the 560Ti. But remember 570 Oced costs 31.5K, 560Ti DF costs 24K.

@HMS1193
The higher specs in 570 including extra 100 cuda cores etc will keep 570 ahead in the long run which is always good for end user.
And i have also seen the superior support of PHYSX from 560Ti. I agree the difference is 5-10 frames in the current available titles which may also effect in the future titles.

@HMS1193
Earlier i was using Radeon Card and i didn't like it because of no support towards PHYSX & CUDA which i am using alot now :)

@AliMan
@Pleasent
Thank you all for your input. I am all clear with the difference. now. :)

And i forgot to mention earlier that this GTX 570 OC outperforms the previous generation GTX 480 in all aspects.

we all are forgetting one factor, gtx 570 can also overclock ;)
yeah i agree gtx560ti DF higher clock speed really boost the performance and when it is overclocked above 1ghz it give the performance almost as good as gtx 570 reference clocks but we are forgetting one thing, when we will oc the GTX 570 it will kill GTX 560ti :p
one more thing i wanna mention gtx 560ti is a power hungry card, when it goes above 1ghz its consumption increases like hell, GTX 560ti SOC version OC to 1025mhz core clocks and its power consumption was equal to gtx 580 in few benchmarks, the SOC version and the HWAKS version both dont have the reference PCB and both has more phase power to make oc stable but it have more power consumption then the normal pcb versions, khair gtx 560ti DF is a great gpu and its price tag makes it so special but the point is when you willl touch 1ghz it will consume power a lot, i am sure ppl wont have any issues with that but beta jab bill ayaga tab pata challay ga :p

Another advantage of GTX 570 is its larger memory size, which surprisingly no one took in to consideration in this thread.

The advantage of larger memory size becomes apparent in applications in which high resolution textures are used. So an important feature to consider in case of high-end graphics cards.

I doubt, the performance of larger mem is only noticeable in multiple display...

I was gonna mention what you said but awain didn't as the Thread Starter had already understood what needed to be when the thread was newly made,i guess people like "Legend" dont like reading all the relevant posts before posting their own.

Noobs like you need to improve their knowledge first and then focus on correcting others. Don't try to provoke me. I have nothing personal against you but you are taking things personally here.

In rare cases, comments of other members can get overlooked.

No brother,

Some applications can easily consume more then 1 GB of video memory. Known examples are GTA 4, GTA EFLC, and Crysis 2 W\Updates. Performance hit would be significant in these applications at maximum settings on HD resolutions in case of limited resources.

Reason is that once the video memory is fully consumed, the system will be forced to use system memory for further texture storage. This results in decreased performance.

Usman what is the default stock voltage for your gpu ? 850mhz oc on stock voltage is appreciable. I'm guessing it has higher stock voltage than reference 570's.

Can u check with msi afterburner ? It might be varying with load. Nevertheless 0.91 is very good indeed.
