14 Nov 2019 - Graphics card reviewed

Getting one of these GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI graphics cards allows the gamer to run indie system requirements and some less demanding AAA titles. In today’s PC hardware terms these are considered middle range for gaming performance. DirectX 11 gaming system requirements will be met by this gpu.

We take a look at game performance achieved on this graphics card when running 2019 popular games. This short GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI game hardware review looks at the graphics card frame rate performance on Ultra graphics settings at 1080p, 1440p and 4K screen resolutions. Of the 1000 most demanding recommended specs found in game requirements today, this gpu is more powerful than the graphics requirement of 110 games in todays list.

With 1080p being the most common gaming resolution at the moment we explored how well the GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI can run Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p and predict it will return weak frame rates at the following graphics settings - Low: 0 FPS, Medium: 0 FPS, High: 0 FPS and Ultra: 0 FPS. For performance contrast we can see that Borderlands 3 returns a weak 6 FPS at Ultra 1080p.

People are turning their increasingly more powerful graphics cards to the popular 1440p screen size so we tested the GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI to see how it performs on 1440p. First off we have researched Cyberpunk 2077 and predict it will be weak. The frame rates predicted for the game presets were - Low: 0 FPS, Medium: 0 FPS, High: 0 FPS and Ultra: 0 FPS. We added Borderlands 3 to our tests and saw it was weak with a 5 FPS at Ultra 1440p. And then researched Death Stranding leading us to predict 0 FPS at Ultra 1440p. After a look at the popular games running at 1440p with the GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI, this is the wrong choice for PC gaming.

How many years will the GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI in your PC? We think this GeForce GTX 560 Ti SLI has around 6-12 months until an upgrade should be considered.
