KFA2 GeForce GTX 760 EX OC editon

In this review we take the KFA2 GeForce GTX 760 EX OC edition for a gigantuous benchmark test-drive. This model graphics card comes with a factory overclock and a new design cooler with dual 90mm fans. Overall the card is sitting at GeForce GTX 670 performance levels, 100% cool and 100% silent though ! We test the product with the hottest games like Grid 2, Metro: Last light, Battlefield 3, Sleeping Dogs, Far Cry 3, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more. 

The GeForce GTX 760 is a re-spin product, meaning NVIDIA took an older GPU, rebadged it, tweaked some parameters and injects it back into the market at better price-point. You might like that, or not. But the fact remains that the GeForce GTX 760 is to be considered a mainstream to high-end product, yet comes at a competitive price with the very same chip used in the GeForce GTX 670 and GTX 680. And that a year ago, where the second and top high-end graphics cards. As such the card remains very interesting  in terms of performance though. See the GK104 GPU itself being used will have two shader cluster disabled. This gives the GK104 GPU 1152 CUDA cores to work with, with in total, 96 texture and 32 raster operating units. The GPU being used is actually tagged as GK104-225 A2. The graphics card also has slightly slower clock frequencies than big daddy GTX 680. However the GTX 760 comes with a Boost clock which is set at 1033 MHz. The core clock frequency (for the reference products) is 980 MHz with the 256-bit DDR5 memory clocking in at 6008 MHz.

With a TDP at roughly 170 Watts the card won't draw too much power either, but it surely packs power, it is silent and the GPU core temperatures remain completely under control. Boardf partners will be free to launch their own SKUs, all pimped  and beefed up, and that's where we start the next chapter.

But meet the GeForce GTX 760 EX OC edition from KFA2, this is the 2GB version  that comes factory clocked for you at 1058 MHz with a Boost clock of 1110 MHz. The memory clock was kept reference at 6008 MHz though. So let me show you the product from another Galaxy, KFA2 EX OC edition, and then head on over to the next page please.

Woohoo !
