Review: MSI GeForce GTX 660 HAWK Edition

Review 567 Published by Hilbert Hagedoorn 9

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.

GeForce 9800 GT vs GeForce 660 GTX review

Review 567 Published by Hilbert Hagedoorn 46

teaser

We place the GeForce 9800 GT vs GeForce 660 GTX in a quick four page article slash review. Demographics show that a lot of end-users who purchased their PC a couple of years ago very likely still have that GeForce 9800 GT. NVIDIA's demographics show that the people that are still using that card (and apparently it is a lot of them) are bound to upgrade, and the most logical step is the GeForce TX 660. So why not have a quick peek at how these two cards performs -- the old versus the new.

EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Classified 4GB with EVBOT review

Review 567 Published by Hilbert Hagedoorn 12

We'll test the EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Classified today. A product that is 100% customized from PCB to cooling. Software voltage regulation works, but obviously as well is limited to that 1.175V. EVGA however does have an alternative for the Classified model as tested today, you can hook up a small piece of hardware to it called EVBot, which controls the voltages directly at hardware level, and thus bypassing the NVAPI software limitation.
