GeForce GTX 650 Ti To Arrive in September

GeForce GTX 650 Ti To Arrive in September geforce gtx 650ti
DonanimHaber claim they received more information about GeForce GTX 650 Ti graphics card. According to them, it will not be released with GTX 660 and GTX 660 Ti in August, but in September.

While NVIDIA is clearing their stocks and discontinuing the production of Fermi based mid-range cards, there are the new ones on the horizon. Well, honestly we expected all mid-range cards to arrive at the same time, but if DH is right, then NVIDIA will delay the release date of GTX 650 (Ti) by at least a month.

The specification that the source is mentioning is nothing new, however they claim that card will use GK107 GPU, while we thought it’s featuring GK106. But that’s not a good information, because GK107 is the GPU from GT 640. So right now, we are not sure if there are two GTX 650 cards planned or just one. But the specs from their post are exactly the same as GT 640, only with GDDR5 memory (that should be a non-Ti model). I find this very confusing, because the gap between GTX 660 and GTX 650 (Ti as they say) would be too large. So I’m guessing they actually meant the non-Ti model.

Nonetheless, they say that GeForce GTX 650 Ti will be released on September 17th, and this might be the only valid information from their article, or it’s not? The question to be asked in simple, is there a GK106 GPU at all?

    there is gonna be such a big difference between the cuda cores ? GTS 650ti 384 and then it jumps to GTX 660 1152? Oo hmm it doesnt seem plausibly. All we can do is wait, as nvidia already thought us :D

    The funny thing is that GTX 560 ti had 384 cores xD

    That’s what they say, but it’s highly doubtful. Only a GPU-Z screenshot can clear those speculations.
    Now SweClockers continue to say that GTX 660 Ti will have 192-bit memory and 2GB or 3GB buffer.

    How is that comparable to GTX 670 2GB? There’s too much hype about it and I need to choose which information looks more valid. The article on DonanimHaber seemed to be interesting only because they mentioned the release date.

    yeah, i saw the article too(sweclockers), but is a bit confusing. :
    GTX 650 1 month after 660/ti… strange timing
    I prefer the attitude that AMD took with launch of 7000 Series, Nvidia must be kidding with us.
    Good question about GK106, sad that some people knows the answer and remain silent.

  • artin500

    How can Nvidia be so late with there midrange cards. In only 4-5 will amd release there new cards.

    Arghhh !!! I was planned to buy a mid-range graphics card!! Now need to wait until setember ???!!!! (GTX 660 TI) :( :(
    Any new rumors please!!

  • BestJinjo

    Of course there will be a huge difference. Kepler cores are also slower than Fermi cores because the shader clock is gone. That means GTX560Ti will beat GTX650Ti easily based on those specs. By the time that card launches HD7850 will be under $200 anyway.

  • Doopa

    Is GTX 650, not GTX 650 Ti

    UPDATE:

    Nice to meet you 7950, bye!
    Nvidia optimized program?? Maybe ;)

  • Raghar

    I wrote something about semiaccurate, Charlie, and his mistake. He heard something about NVidia chip problems, and he knew they would release GK 104, and he connected these things together. He was wrong, these were GK 106 problems. (If NVidia will not release it in next few months)

    It would also explain why would NVidia try to press for GT 7xx so soon.

    Actually I would prefer a dual GK 107 with 4 GB DDR5 RAM for 140 $, passively cooled. It would have enough performance, enough cores, and enough RAM, and it would do its job right.

  • RenderMan

    Wow looking at these specs I think I might buy a amd card… I was looking forward to getting a gtx6xx to render with iRay but i think i’ll just bite the bullet and go amd instead. You screwed up nvidia… again

  • BestJinjo

    3dMark11 LOL! Useless bench. That 660 card falls apart with AA in real world games and once you take 30-40% overclocking of the 7950, it even takes out the GTX680. $500 GK104 bye-bye by a $310-320 after market 7950 :)-

  • skr13

    The 660Ti was made to compete with 7870 and does the job well, at same price, like gtx 560Ti was better than 6870 and on pair with 6950.
    Don´t come with your OC´s percentage, not all chips can do that % and i hear that some games has problems with OC cards either NVIDIA or AMD(fps drop, min fps lower), so my advice to anyone:Don´t buy a Card based on OC, stock performance vs other cards is the best way to choose.
    With new Nvidia drivers for 660Ti performance gonna be better, in some cases more than 10% like they do with previous Cards.

  • BestJinjo

    GTX560 Ti 1GB was not anywhere near HD6950. It was a replacement for a GTX470, with lower power consumption but similar performance = GTX470/560Ti 822mhz were competitors to the 6870, with the 560Ti beating it by 3-5% at most. Not even the GTX560 Ti @ 950mhz could beat an HD6950 1GB. Here is a review that took me 5 min to Google where GTX560 Ti @ 950mhz lost to the 6950:
    http://techreport.com/articles.x/20777

    And here is a performance Index summary that shows GTX560Ti 1GB ~ HD6870, well below the level of the 6950 1GB:
    http://ht4u.net/reviews/2011/msi_n560_gtx_ti_hawx_test/index31.php

    Today, the GTX560Ti 1GB performs even worse against the 6950 2GB because it runs out of VRAM in many modern games:

    The card you are probably thinking about is the GTX560 Ti 448 Core. That card did beat the HD6950. GTX560Ti is about 11-13% slower than the 6950 at 1080P and 10% at 1680×1050:

    I owned a bunch of Fermi cards last generation so I am not trying to come off as biased against NV, but you guys consistently keep putting NV cards above their actual performance levels. And then when I provide back-up for my statements, you just ignore them and continue to state you opinions as facts without backing them up. I’d appreciate it if I am wrong then you please provide support for that, otherwise, it’s just an unsubstantiated statement.

    Also, in response to GTX660Ti vs. HD7950, most HD7950 on the market have 880-900mhz clock speeds, not 800mhz clock speeds that are used in benchmarks. We’ll see how GTX660Ti does against them. I have a feeling it’ll cost $299 and perform as fast as an HD7950 without anti-aliasing but be much slower with AA/AF on and much slower when comparing GTX660Ti OCed vs. HD7950 OCed.

    BTW, the MSI TwinFrozr 3 HD7950 has a 95% chance of getting 1.05ghz overclock on stock voltage. So it’s almost guaranteed. Sells for about 270 pounds in the UK.
