Palit GeForce GTX 770 2GB Jetstream edition 

Oh yes, there is more GTX 770 goodness being released today. Check out the big whopper amongst the GeForce GTX 770 graphics cards from Palit. It comes factory overclocked (massively I might add) allowing it to close in towards GTX 780 performance. Next to that the triple-slot cooler will keep the card under 65 Degrees C at full load and it is gobsmacked silent.

But first things first, we take a closer look at NVIDIA's new GeForce GTX 770. The GeForce GTX 770 is a top of the line segmented graphics card. It uses a familiar GPU though, yes the very same GPU as the GTX 680 actually. That makes it a chunk faster, alongside a clock frequency and memory increase it will be priced aggressively, that in a nutshell, my friends, is the new GeForce GTX 770. We test the product with the hottest games like Metro: Last Light, Battlefield 3, Sleeping Dogs, Far Cry 3, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more. 

There has been a lot of shatter in the graphics arena as to what both AMD and NVIDIA are doing for the 2013 lineup of products. With the global economy at an all-time low both manufacturers have been slowing down their development cycles in order to safe on R&D. But to not release now products will stall sales, as hey .. why should anybody upgrade ? In the past two weeks we have seen two new products from NVIDIA, both are sort of refreshes, one being a SKU based on GeForce GTX Titan, in another jacket called the 780. The other is today's tested product, the Kepler based GeForce GTX 770. Kepler my, fellow gurus, is the codename for the architecture behind the GeForce series 600 and 700 graphics cards. The GeForce GTX 770 is a fact and selling in the stores starting today in both 2GB and 4GB versions. You might think that it's a GTX 680 all over again. Not true ... the GTX 770 has a new base clock frequency, set higher at default for you, at 1046 MHz with a dynamic boost frequency that clocks up-to 1085 MHz. A nice gain however is the usage of faster DRR5 graphics memory, the GeForce GTX 770 runs at a reference stock clock frequency of 7Gbps (effective datarate). Obviously with the new cooling theme we have got to look at overclocking it a little as well, but have a quick peek at the product after which we'll dive into the GPU architecture, photo shoot and benchmarks.

But first meet the GeForce GTX 770 Jestream edition from Palit. This is the 2GB Jetsream edtition that comes factory clocked for you at whopping 1150 MHz (Ref 1046) with a Boost clock of 1202 MHz (Ref 1085). Next to that for the GTX 770 series the memory clock has been increased as well, at an effective data-rate of 7010 MHz.

Say hell yeah, let me show you what we'll talk about in this review and then head on over to the next page please.
