Benchmark Results: Synthetics
3DMark 11
Unigine Sanctuary
The GeForce cards dominate both benchmarks; the top models from AMD are only able to score points in the DirectX 10-heavy Sanctuary benchmark, and then only at lower resolutions and relaxed settings. At higher resolutions and quality settings, the GeForce GTX 560 Ti looks like a solid performer. However, the results for most of the cards are acceptable, and at levels that allow for an adequate gaming experience.

This confirms that the 560 ti belongs in TH best graphics cards for the money ( they werent recommomended the past 2 months)
560ti is an amazing card for the money
arent the 6950s in this price range also? there are 2gb ones going for $250
You have a 560 Ti eVGA Superclock for $215~ after rebate on Newegg. Then you have the 6870 from a few various brands for about $169~ after rebate.
Is the TI worth another 40+ dollars?
In every benchmark its the souped up overclocked versions of the GTX 560 Ti that are on top.
The standard Geforce GTX 560 Ti is still getting beaten by the standard Radeon 6950
The GeForce GTX 550Ti wiould be a bargin if nvidia put the price below 100 dollars in which it should be considering it's performance doesn't justify the extra 30 or 40 dollars.
Yup, considering its performance, the GTX550Ti should have replaced the GTS450 price point, which was $110. Since the GTX550Ti was included here, I would have liked to see where the cheaper HD5770/6770 would have placed, probably higher than the GTX550Ti.
Also, can you guys do a story on how some classic cards match up to modern games? Stuff like 8800GTX's and 2900XT's which used to cost an arm and leg back in the day. Would be cool to see how the fare today.
No aftermarket 6950? Those 560ti cards that are topping the benchmarks are a good $40-$60 more expensive than a stock 6950 here in Oz. I think you should have included an OC'd 6950 (like the Gigabyte) which is still $20 cheaper than those ti's to make this a bit more interesting.
Gah, just as I was about to go to bed an interesting review come out... I'll keep it open to read first thing in the morning!
Geforces dominate benchmarks because we have used 10 variants of overclocked 560Ti cards against stock clocked few Radeons (6950) here and there. And also, we don't show which drivers and control panel settings we have used because that would reveal our trickery. Why is Tom always hating AMD/ATI?
There even seems not to be performance per $ which is ridiculous. Of course super clocked variants cost more than reference models. I'm sure Radeons have better performance per dollar. That's something "Igor" didn't want us to see.
wher is the most important price/perfomance index.........
and the choice of games is less than miserable......
This whole review is bs. Where are the OC 6950's? Did you really think that you could pass this review off as an unbiased review? If we can't trust this review, it makes the whole website suspect (except for the awesome forum people)
Seriously, update this review if you value the members.
Who still plays Mafia2?
can't help it, another pro nvidia review. where are the overclocked 6950 cards ?
I'm confused you have the base 560 ti ahead of the His iceQX 6870 in the enthusiast settings but it looks like all but one or two games the His card is better.
Not that I am a Gigabyte fan-boy but other sites show the Gigabyte Windforce idles at 29-35 and load 60-66.

How can this author say, "from their top-end (AMD Radeon HD 6970, Nvidia GeForce GTX 570)?" I'm pretty sure that the GTX 580 is the top of the line. If it isn't, then what is it considered? Just because it doesn't have an AMD equivalent doesn't make it something exclusive.
