@ jaskanwar and everyone

Found a perfect card and in sli mode, it will prove to deliver a killer 3d experience.

Zotac Gtx 560-ti 2gb gddr5 is now available at lynx india at a price of 14.5k.

Pair two of these and the extra 2gb framebuffer will really handle higher resolutions and 3dvision like a breeze. Check here.

I guess its ideal for a 3d rig.

Post your comments guys.

thetechfreak · Nov 8, 2011

Here we go again. I think some one must test both 2 gb version of 6950 and this in multi gpu mode to be more certain.

If anyone got a few good review links please post.
I am searching for them now.

vickybat · Nov 8, 2011

^^ Buddy we are not comparing it with 6950 2gb at all. This one is meant to handle 3d vision because of its additional vram. Previously,560-ti 1gb sli faltered in 3d due to vram limitations as in 3d, a particular frame is rendered almost twice but doesn't take twice the time as the gpu copies the additional frame albeit in a different orientation as compared to original, into the framebuffer.

So more vram was always the ideal requirement. This will hopefully address those previous limitations. :smile:

thetechfreak · Nov 8, 2011

I know mate we are not. But 3d is not always the only use of a PC. I am pretty sure that this 2 Gb card is going to be great performer. We should always remember limitation of 3d on smaller screens. Have read many cases where people have ended up with headaches.
But hey lets not get offtopic?

@vickybat: price of that 2GB 560ti looks good, rather very goos considering that msi 560ti hawk sells @ 14K.. Hopefully we will see some review soon enough and then recommend this to users.

Why don't you try to find out some reviews of the 2GB version of 560 Ti and its use in over 1080P or 3D gaming and post it here?
It will help Jaskanwar a lot in his hard work of creating all the configs. We want valuable participace from all of you guys to make this highly useful thread more better.
There are plenty of reviews available as the card is not a new one, only it is newly available in India.

@ All Monitor buyers: Not to buy led version of BenQ G2220HD & G2420HD. Have a look at this:

*i.imgur.com/JVFyT.png

Just not a single of this i've seen many comparison so i'm blown out led performing worse than Non Led Monitor. Not just for BenQ Monitor Even this is the problem with dell, etc. This are not true led panels. True Led panels are used in led tvs. Even a erodov member who work for Dell has came to this conclusion. Hope it helps to buyer.

vickybat · Nov 8, 2011

^^ There's no such thing as LED panels. LED's are simply used for backlighting as lcd panels have no active light source. Instead of ccfl lighting on the so called "NON-LED" panels, these use led's.

Now there are two types of led displays:

1. Edge lit
2. Array lit

The second one is the most successful implementation of led backlighting but is expensive as well. Edge lit are most common but do not offer better contrast.

Led tv's are superior because they have different panel type like ips,mva,pva as opposed to tn seen in common lcd monitors. Therefore implementation of led is better there due to superior panel technology.

On the other hand, the benq g222hdl has no such issues and it has been tried and tested. More than 10 of my friends including my brother own the monitor and they are more than satisfied with it. For 6.8k, you definitely won't find anything better. Its really stupid to compare this with more expensive hdtv's.

Nice thinking.. Was searching for any review of 'Zotac' 560ti 2GB edition, but can't find any anywhere. May be I'm overlooking at one or more places, but one thing for sure, this card is not overclocked. Its a normal 560ti card with only one added advantage, 1GB extra VRAM. So, I highly doubt over its 'real' capabilities.

Get edge-lit LED if you like backlight bleed.
