ZOTAC GeForce GTX 650 Extreme Edition Detailed

ZOTAC GeForce GTX 650 Extreme Edition Detailed new card geforce gtx 650
WCCFTech has some interesting pictures of new GeForce GTX 650 model from ZOTAC. While we can believe that the GTX 650 was absolutely not designed for gamers, ZOTAC has slightly different opinion, so they came up with Extreme Edition of one of the slowest Kepler card.

ZOTAC GTX 650 Extreme Edition arrives with 2GB of GDDR5 memory. I’m not sure why did they equip it with such a large memory size (the same as GTX 680 or GTX 670), while it has only 128-bit memory interface, so I guess this is simply a marketing feature.

The GTX 650 has the same GPU as GT 640 – GK107-450 – which has 384 CUDA cores. This model is fully modified, not only has it a non-reference cooler, but also a modified PCB, which looks more like the one from GTX 660. While it’s powered by single 6-pin power connectors the board has 3+1 phase PWM. Further we can notice that the card has a longer cooling solution, which packs 2 fans, situated on the top of large heatsink (that covers almost the whole card).

Card is equipped with two DVI’s, one HDMI and DisplayPort. ZOTAC’s GTX 650 Extreme Edition is available in China for $200.

    GTX 650 is enough to play MEDIUM/HIGH sub 1680×1050 resolutions, without AA, and 2GB isn´t need at all, 1GB is enough for this segment.
    For $200, better pick a 7850…

    I wonder how will this card perform in comparison to GTX 560 and GTX 570.
    $200 is the price of this EXTREME edition, $150 is the real price, which is more competitive.

    i don’t think so, that is if it really is just a 640 with GDDR5….. if it has some boost over 640 that Nvidia magically made…. considering the 640 didn’t beat the 7750 if i remember right….. I think it will not be competitive…. :(

    GDDR3 memory is a huge bottleneck for actual games. We have to wait for proper reviews to be sure though.

    yes, but going from levels of below 7750 at above the price to going to GDDR5 probably being more expensive than 7770 and not being faster :( i will link a few bench when can :)

    nice site btw! :D
