NVIDIA will soon launch the third member of the GeForce GTX 500 family, coming January 25th with GeForce GTX 560 Ti, a graphics card that aims for the space between the mid-range and performance segments. The card has now appeared before the camera, with and without the new cooler.
The card is the spiritual successor to GeForce GTX 460 and will use the new GF114 GPU with 384 CUDA cores to go up against Radeon HD 6950. The pictures published by a Taiwanese website show how NVIDIA has raised the bar from last generation GeForce GTX 460.
GeForce GTX 560 Ti comes with a bigger and better equipped circuit board where we see 4-phase power supply, two 6-pin PCIe power connectors and a single SLI connector. Beside the new GF114 GPU we find eight GDDR5 memory circuits for 1GB graphics memory, and they communicate over a 256-bit bus.
The heatsink that is also seen on the pictures has been edited, but at the same time we see how NVIDIA has designed a solution with three big heatpipes and a three-part aluminum heatsink for keeping the GPU cool.
How GeForce GTX 560 Ti performs you will know on January 25th.
