Review: MSI GeForce GTX 660 HAWK Edition

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 10/23/2012 12:07 PM | source: | 9 comment(s)

We review the MSI GeForce GTX 660 HAWK graphics card in this article. The MSI HAWK is released in the mid-range segment, yet received a high-end treatment from MSI. Armed with a customized PCB, TwinFrozr IV cooler, military class components and to top it off, a very high factory overclock that places this product smack down in the middle of GeForce GTX 660 Ti performance. The HAWK edition also comes with the V-Check points that allow voltage measurement points for enthusiasts wanting accurate voltage readings via multi-meter. Not bad for a 175 EUR card really.

Nice review as always, i'm wondering if 2 of these would be cheaper and faster than a top end 680.

Hey Hilbert does this thing have 7.1 output via HDMI or is that only limited to the higher end cards? I've been considering building a HTPC/Living room gaming box thing, so I'm looking for something on the cheaper side but 7.1 is a must.

Hey Hilbert, bottom of page 2 it says "ASUS definitely is using their own customized PCB alright."
