Newegg has the EVGA 03G-P4-3661-KR GeForce GTX 660 Ti 3GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card for $320 - 10% off with coupon code HARDOCP12X6B [Exp 12/11] - $20 rebate [Exp 12/31] = $268 with free shipping. Other GeForce GTX 660 Ti 3GB cards go for over $300.
$268
Same exact deal as a month ago... Not a bad price for a reference "smurf board" that they disguise by cloaking with a nice backing plate (notice where the 6-pin sits). For what is a "plug-it and forget-it" that bests' a GTX580 in Fps. and wildly better efficiency (+70%) while doing it I give it kudos. Hard to find a review on this exact card, while the 5 Eggviews are glowing they point to the 192-Bit memory bus being its’ Achilles heel if at 2650x. When there's nice dual fan 7950's with Boost for under $280 this might be better severed with at least a $258 price today. A 7950 with Boost on 12.11 Drivers can average 5-7% above a reference GTX 660Ti, though given that I suppose this pricing is right in line fo those holding to 1920x.
Here's a recent review with as [H] puts it "a healthy factory overclock" in the Galaxy GTX 660 Ti GC 3Gb. With a base clock of 1006MHz and 1085MHz Boost Clock, it's roughly 10% stronger from this reference GTX 660 Ti. This is a SLI/CF match-up, with no single card numbers.
