GeForce GTX 660 3DMark11 Score Revealed

GeForce GTX 660 3DMark11 Score Revealed geforce gtx 660
APW seems to have a lot of information about the GTX 660 non-Ti, which is coming in few days. The card will be powered by GK106 GPU, which is a completely new addition to the Kepler line-up.

They released a screen-shot of the GPU-Z readings few days ago, but despite the number of CUDA cores and type of memory there’s not really much of information there. The GK106 GPU would be using 960 CUDA cores with 24 Raster Operating Units. The card would feature 2GB of GDDR5 memory operating on 192-bit interface. The memory bandwidth suggest that the memory is still clocked at 6 GHz effective memory clock (but the math suggests it’s 6.1GHz to be exact).

Earlier reports said that the GTX 660 will support the GPU Boost technology, so it comes with two clocks: base of 980 MHz and boost of 1032 MHz.

In comparison to GTX 660 Ti this model will support only 2-way SLI. Reference PCB has only one 6-pin power connectors, but I’m sure that manufacturers will release few models with two.

According to the image card would score X2364 in 3DMark11 Extreme Preset, while the leaked benchmark from Chinese forums mentioned X2354, so we can assume it’s real. But to be honest, even the reviewers don’t usually post the 3DMark11 scores — especially in Extreme Preset — so it’s quite useless for any proper comparison.

The GeForce GTX 660 will be released on September 12th along with GeForce GTX 650.

    cool

  • jipe

    660 ti 2500-2550 3d mark’s
    so 660 to loss 10%? and 80 $

  • Raghar

    0.64 of GTX 670. Did they overercloced it?

  • http://videocardz.com/ VideoCardz.com

    Likely not.

  • LedHed
  • MadGamer

    Where 2800-2900 for the 660 ti o_O ? Look these cards are overclock !

    haha thats pro bro :) keepp the good work , i visit ur website everyday from morocco :)

  • LedHed

    Yes they are OCd, I could not find a review with a factory stock speed card that included 3DMark11 Extreme scores during the time I searched. I haven’t seen anyone produce a source that the 660 Ti gets 2500 pts. I looked for reference and came up with all manufacturer OCd cards for that benchmark and setting. The eurogamer link of the MSI 660 Ti only has a core OC from 915mhz to 1020mhz with the memory untouched. I highly doubt a 105 mhz bump on the core increased the score by ~350 pts.

    Edit: Here you go, reference 660 Ti scoring 2631. Which is what I thought, 2500 is wrong and that shows you. Sorry I didn’t find that link faster in my first post to please the person who disliked my post.

    http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Graphics-Cards/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-660-Ti-2GB-Kepler-Graphics-Card-Review/3DMark11

    According to this link: “Looking at the extreme 3Dmark 11 Pro performance the GeForce GTX 660 Ti scored 2755pts, while the Gigabyte overclocked card was 5% faster reaching 2903pts”

    http://www.legionhardware.com/articles_pages/gigabyte_geforce_gtx_660_ti,2.html

    So yea, I’d say 2500 is incorrect.

  • Raghar

    Have you hard anything about GTX 650 Ti? I’d need about twice as fast card than GT 640 with DDR5. (Aka the gaming computer with an “Accelero S1 plus plan”. Gainward 560 phantom had about 50 W more than I needed.)

  • http://videocardz.com/ VideoCardz.com

    September 12th?

  • MadGamer

    And 2800-2900 is incorrect too !

  • zeus

    from that gpuz clocks are 1070/6108 dont know if the gpuz is correct though .

  • LedHed

    Yes the OC cards put up numbers 50-150 pts higher than Legion Hardware says about the stock 660 Ti, I think I already explained that above..

    2755 pts is a hell of a lot closer to 2800 than 2500

  • BestJinjo

    You guys still don’t get it, do you? 3dMark11 is worthless for measuring how fast a card is in games. It’s good to check your overclocking stability; that’s about it.

    1) GTX680 is 50-60% faster in 3dMark11 vs. GTX580. Now check real world games, 35% faster only.
    2) No game in the world anyone of us plays uses “Futuremark” game engine. As far as I know no games will ever use the “Futuremark” game engine. Cryengine 3.4, Unreal Engine 3/4, Frostbite 2.0, those are real game engines. Show me benchmarks in those games that run those engines.
    3) You can optimize drivers specifically for 3dMark11 to get a good score but it’s meaningless for real world games. All it tells us is how well NV or AMD optimized their drivers for 3dMark11 benchmark
    4) The score does not take into account MSAA/SSAA/FXAA performance hit, which is why GTX660Ti does well in 3dMark11 vs. the 670 but in real world games, falls apart:

    http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/08/23/galaxy_gtx_660_ti_gc_oc_vs_670_hd_7950/3

    The only thing that matters are gaming scores. Show me how GTX660 does in BF3, Crysis 2, Borderlands 2, Metro 2033, Dirt Showdown, ARMA II DayZ, Guild Wars 2, etc. etc.

    I believe it is since the memory should be pumping out 144.4GB/s instead of 146.6GB/s.

    AMD rocks in real games , I just order two HD 7950 for eyefinity and in feb will replace with 2x 8970 for Unleashed gaming

    Note the difference between GFX score, and combined score. vortez used combined score.

    GTX 660 Ti has 2475 in GFX score. GTX 660 has 2160 in GFX score. Because Chinese sites sometimes like overclocking, you should expect the later value is from overclocked card, and the 2475 is from EVGA SC.

    So the real value might be 1920, and GTX 650 Ti would have: 1536.

  • BestJinjo

    It’s not just AMD, even when comparing GTX580 vs. GTX680, the 3dMark11 score makes no sense. If you compare X score, it shows that GTX680 is 60-80% faster than a GTX580!

  • http://www.facebook.com/TheHeartOfAsiaa Pratik Rawankar

    NV is going wild since they already loose PS4 & Xbox 720 hardware contract where AMD wins

    optimizing drivers for 3dmark 11 bench only !! non-sense overload
    they forgot they are building for gaming

    2 GB Vram for 400-500 $ gpu from NV what a Shitt !!!!!!!!!!!

    they are only increasing CUDA counts and cut-half of its clock to get 100 % performance and 90% power consumption ( old school days )

    I heard lots about GTX680 is worse than GTX580 for autodesk products and pro computing etc
    since they have problem with CUDA processing, in 780 they will fix it ???????

    must see this official tech screen shots about NV from NV here on my box ( captured by me )
    https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ot75j6mto2s2f4j/oSphj8Vbgt?m

    and u can see full video here
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pStZWZo0sgM and much more etc

    I was a die hard fan of NV in 2010-11 until 680 takes down by HD7970 ,
    I respect everything NV makes , but time comes for NV to rest in peace

    feedom for u to speak and share and for me and all for us , Love linux and win 7 and AMD my Heart

  • Raghar

    Get a brain.

    Lower CUDA throughput is because they optimized it for GAMING, and because they screwed up shifting operations (similar problem as Intel Northwood vs Prescot).

    Ya, but why did NV optimize it for gaming? Because nerds complained to them that they care about performance/watt. I loved GTX470/480 series and bought 3 of them. I just want max performance which is why I don’t play on a Slim PS3 to save power. I would have gotten the real GK100/110 Kepler card even if it used 250W of power because I want double precision and full compute and gaming performance. This is why I also skipped GTX670/680 series. I am hoping GTX780 will be what the real Kepler should have been. 294mm^2 gaming chip that lost the performance crown is not the NV I know. The NV I know has the fastest single-GPU card and power house features. This time they sold out to the nerds and performance/watt cry babies and shoved them a GTX560Ti mid-range replacement for $500 that can’t do anything outside of games. No thanks! GTX780 next stop for me if NV brings back GPGPU.
