GTX 650 Ti SuperClocked or GTX 660 (or any other suggestions)

dpack77 · Jul 31, 2013

I'm torn between two graphics cards:
- ASUS GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 GeForce GTX 660 2GB
- EVGA 02G-P4-3658-KR GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST SuperClocked 2GB

My use will be minor video editing using Vegas Movie Studio 11 HD Platinum, and probably little to no gaming. I know the 660 has a lot of good reviews with it, but I'm not sure if it's overkill for what I'm trying to do.

Any suggestions as to what I should go with? Am I way overkill altogether for what I'm doing? If you have any other suggestions for better video cards too, I'm all ears.

Thanks!

For video editing and stuff the 968 cuda core of the gtx660 would be more useful than 768 of the gtx650boost. With that being said, the gtx650 ti boost should be enough for your needs and a very similar performer to the gtx660.

I don't know about Vegas Movie Studio 11 HD Platinum so it's hard to tell, but video editing is always demanding for a PC. I checked the requirements for the software and nothing too crazy. So my feeling is that the cards you're considering aren't "too" overkill, they'll probably just make the use of the software smoother.

The 650-Ti "Boost" performs very closely to the 660, so with the 40$ price difference between the two I'd go with the cheaper card.
