GeForce GTX 660 Ti WindForce 2X OC Edition Game Requirement Analysis

Overview
GeForce GTX 660 Ti Gigabyte WindForce 2X OC 2GB Edition is a special edition of NVIDIA's Performance GeForce GTX 660 Ti, created by Gigabyte.

The Central Unit now runs at 1032MHz, instead of 915MHz and goes up to 1110MHz, in Turbo Mode.

Overclock: Memory Clock
The Operating Memory Clock and the Frame Buffer remain the same.

Cooling Solution
The reference NVIDIA Single-Fan Cooling System has been replaced by Gigabyte's WINDFORCE 2X 100mm Fansink equipped with "Triangle Cool" Technology to reach a better cooling performance. The latest patent pending technology combines fin with clip module in a special triangle shape. With the original anti-turbulence structure plus the new triangle cooling design, it enhances the efficiency of heat dissipation dramatically by minimizing the flow of turbulence between fans.

Performance
Benchmarks indicate a 5% performance over the reference GeForce GTX 660 Ti.
