The ASUS GTX 750 Ti OC, as the name would suggest, comes with an overclock out of the box of 52/65MHz on the GPU core. ASUS have added a pair of their fans which they claim provide twice the airflow and a three times reduction in noise over the reference design.ĪSUS have also equipped better than reference power components which they claim offer 2.5X longer lifespan and also operate at lower temperatures which should improve the efficiency of the graphics card. We’re hoping that this won’t affect cooling performance too much but we’ll have to wait until the test results before that can be determined. This is because ASUS have not chosen to use any heat pipes at all – that’s right, not heat pipes. With this graphics card ASUS are using their “Direct CU II style design”, however, this is not actually a Direct CU II product. I am hoping that today ASUS can bring some improvements to the table with the ASUS GTX 750 Ti OC graphics card we are looking at. The Nvidia GTX 750 Ti is a great graphics card but the reference design that we reviewed was lacking a little something. Have a peek at the GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti reference model, and then head on over to the next page please.Introduction, Specifications and Packaging In this review we'll look at the models from NVIDIA themselves, thus the reference products. The GeForce GTX 750 (Ti) graphics cards will be launched in the sub 150 USD/EUR price range. And if you can forfeit to medium quality settings in a game and don't do any crazy stuff anti-aliasing wise, it's definitely plausible to play games really nicely at FullHD with acceptable framerates. Now that doesn't mean that all modern titles will be playable with good image quality settings, let's just say that dated titles will be playable with a resolution of 1920x1080/1200. Overall, the GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti, as we'll demonstrate, will have enough horsepower to step into the DX11 gaming arena at up-to 1920x1080 (Full HD) resolution as Maxwell does bring in some new efficiencies. The 'standard' GeForce GTX 750 will get 512 CUDA cores, 32 TMUs and 16 ROPs, with just 1GB graphics memory though. In terms of clock frequencies, depending on brand/oem 1020 MHz will be the baseline target for the main clock frequency on the GPU while the cards can boost to 1084 MHz. These cards will be equipped with 1 or 2GB GDDR5 memory bound over a rather narrow 128-bit interface. As such, the GeForce GTX 750 Ti will get 640 CUDA cores, 40 TMUs and 16 ROPs. Both hover on the entry-level to mainstream level segment. Nvidia launches two initial products today, the GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti. The first Maxwell GPU released is the GM107, which has been baked and plastered onto the GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti graphics cards. Maxwell makes use of a 28nm node manufacturing process, later models however should move down to a 20nm manufacturing process.

That's right, Maxwell, as Nvidia is now slowly moving away from Kepler. For the technology-press however the most important fact is that a new GPU architecture was applied, these cards based on the new Maxwell GPU architecture. These cards are intended to replace the Geforce GTX 650 series. These cards are affordable - low power - decent performance graphics cards that will allow you to game even at 1080P. In today's article we review the new GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti from Nvidia.
