MSI GeForce GTX 780 Gaming edition gets reviewed and tested

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 07/03/2013 08:36 AM | source: | 13 comment(s)

In this review we test the GeForce GTX 780 Gaming edition from MSI. Overall the card is almost as fast as a GeForce GTX Titan, 100% cool and extraordinary silent. The graphics card comes with a nice factory overclock and the very lovely TwinFrozr IV cooler that has two silent 90mm fans. We test the product with the hottest games like Grid 2, Metro: Last light, Battlefield 3, Sleeping Dogs, Company of Heroes 2, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more.

You test the gpu in your computer to make sure it works?

Not sure what's this topis is about, but my experience with Q66 is kinda interesting...

I had HD7850 and felt like my CPU(same freq as now - 3.3Ghz) was bottlenecking it really bad as I couldn't find any other reasonable explanation for the the benchmark results which were totally off:

Now recently I got an GTX560, and now the results are as follows (taken with stock gpu clocks):

To this day I don't know what had caused HD7850 to underperform so badly (not drivers, not CPU, not PSU, not software... Plus judging from the monitoring data it didn't look faulty. The only games it worked OK with were BF3 and COD), but bottom line is that Q6600 with a overclock to at least 3Ghz should handle a decent GPU with no major problems. And if for some reason you just can not overclock Q6600 (doing it for no real reason is just plain stupid with this CPU), then at 2.4Ghz the GTX460 would be a pretty much the most powerful gpu it can go with without having a constant bottleneck.

A q6600 @3ghz bottlenecks even a hd 6870 pretty bad. From my personal experience. In some games I gained 20fps + when I upgraded to 2500k.
