New Video Card

[jayrc]

lobisomem, what voltage, core clock, shader clock, memory clock speeds are you running, I've tried to get my clock speeds up but it's not stable with clod.

gtx 560 ti is a nice card for IL2

MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 2GB 256-bit GDDR5

Just ordered one yesterday and it was shipped yesterday ,
today I just checked out of curiosity and it is already out of stock

How about the Geforce GTX 550 Ti 2GB DDR5.

Its clock speeds are:

Core Clock:900 MHz Memory Clock:4008 MHz Shader Clock:1800 MHz. Requires 400watt ps.

I would like to know if anyone is using this card and at what setting they are playing on. I do believe I would be able to attain high setting with this card and still ahve good FPS and smooth game play.

In the meanwhile you can also compare against each other :

GTX 550 in the link you've posted is only:
Memory Interface: 192-bit
Stream Processors: 192
That's gonna hurt a bit I believe .

Personally I wouldn't go for a 550, they're a little closer to budget than I'm comfortable with. The 560Ti on the other hand is a very capable card, and I certainly have no issues with my GTX570. Comparable AMD cards are also availible for good prices. I've seen 6970s for ~$225 on Amazon before, and those are just as good as my 570, if not better in some cases due to the amount of VRAM. The 6950 isn't anything to sneeze at either and none of these cards should be more than 350.

Thanks, I will def look into the 560 and 570.

Cheers!

Actually, my current cuda cores are 128 in my GTS 250, so its still an improvement. Even the clock, core and shader speeds are quite a bit higher than my current card/s. But the 570 is indeed looking promising, not too bad a price $250-300, I can live with that.

Thanks gents
