We pushed Gigabyte's GeForce GTX 650 as far as it'd go and achieved a maximum core overclock of 1125 MHz, with the GDDR5 memory operating at 1600. All it took was a 1.15 V GPU voltage.
In addition, we're including benchmark results for Zotac's factory-overclocked GeForce GTX 650 Ti AMP! Edition and Gigabyte's GV-N65TOC-2GI at their stock settings.








Pushed to its highest overclock, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti edges out AMD's Radeon HD 6870 and Nvidia's GeForce GTX 560 in all but two of our eight high-detail benchmarks. Zotac's AMP! card isn't far behind, making a case for its $180 price tag compared to the GeForce GTX 560.
The biggest problem we see with an overclocked GeForce GTX 650 Ti is AMD's Radeon HD 7850 1 GB, which manages to stay ahead of it in all of our benchmarks.

That looks like a fail to me, and don't even get me started on how late this is.
This means we will easily see $150 or less after rebates and officially makes this Nvidia 650ti product a total fail. I see no reason to purchase this.
Seriously, such a waste of silicon that could perform quite a bit better if you just gave it a little more breathing room....

With 128bit bus, they could have just leave the memory speed @ 6GHz. 5400 is pretty much ruin the thing.
Edit: btw, this is probably one of the most useful review I see for a while. 6870/6850/560/460/7770 are all there, with benchmark of AA on and off. thumbs up for u author!
The HD7850 and GTX 650ti are essentially the same price on New Egg.
slightly too weak for a dedicated in my book.
I said my book as in my opinion.
Because comparing cards in the ~150 dollar range to a card thats +280 dollars is asinine?

Not if you seriously would like to know what the performance difference was. Look at the current Video Card ratings - they cover from very low to extreme high - because people would like to know.
So - Right now, I'm looking at buying a $300 660 Ti, but if the 650 Ti can come within 20% of the performance, I might not drop the extra cash on it. But without trying to find a common benchmark between the two, there's no way to tell. Looks like I get to go benchmark hunting.
Nvidia are doing stupid thing here
I used this as the 660ti review to compare benchmarks against for the games : http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-660-ti-benchmark-review,3279.html
The 660 non-Ti has a roughly 50% lead on average over the 650 Ti. This 650 Ti obviously doesn't come anywhere near the 660 Ti. You shouldn't need the 660 Ti in this to know that.
so they won't be as late as this gen because they had to collect enough bad chips
Outside of gaming, such as some stress tests, they might be able to reach their TDP.
Some of the highly factory overclocked 7770s would be considerably faster than this 650 Ti while still being cheaper
