    This document reviews the EVGA GTX 760 Dual Superclocked graphics card. It has 1,072 CUDA cores, 2GB of GDDR5 memory, and factory overclocked speeds of 1,072MHz core and 6GHz memory. Benchmark results showed scores of 5,875 in 3DMark Fire Strike and 66 fps in Hitman: Absolution at ultra detail. The card runs cool and quiet due to its dual fan cooling system, and can be overclocked further to boost performance. It provides good value and performance for the price.

    n the highly-contested mid-range video card market, the GTX 760 sits quite comfortably. Its not untouchable by any means, but youre certainly assured of a level of quality for your money, and that goes a long way. EVGA builds on that solid foundation with this SC (Superclocked) version, which includes the now staple dual fan system; EVGAs own arrangement goes by the name of Active Cooling Xtreme, and certainly does a good job of keeping things under wraps even during intense gaming sessions. As this is a factory-overclocked version of the GTX 760, core speeds come in a little nippier than standard 980MHz, measuring 1,072 (boosted to 1,137 at peak load), although all GTX 760s across EVGAs range run the standard memory speed of 1,502 MHz (6,008 effective). Thankfully, with this powerful yet impressively quiet cooling system you get plenty of room to stretch your

    overclocking legs. On our test unit, we managed to push the core clock speed up to 1,222MHz (boost 1,287) and the memory speed nudged along another 170MHz to a total of 1,672 (6,688 effective). All-in-all this proved to boost performance by a decent margin, pulling in an additional ve frames-per-second in Hitman while GPU core temperature peaked at a respectable 78C. EVGAs range of GTX 760s is quite vast, and this particular offering sits right in the middle with its 2GB of RAM and decent out-of-the-box overclock. That also has the effect of placing this card in an interesting price bracket, which I believe positions it as the best value-formoney in this range. For an extra R800 or so you could jump up to the 4GB version, but then youre playing in 2GB GTX 770 range which would be a no-brainer purchase at that price. As a result, this 2GB card is the one to get. - Geoff Burrows

    WHATS IN THE BOX?


    Included in the package is an EVGAbranded backplate for the GTX 760. Why it isnt xed to the card to begin with is anyones guess, but it looks rather nice and provides passive cooling for the rearmounted Hynix RAM chips.

    A solid card only held back by its lack of 4GB of VRAM, but for the price this is the top NVIDIA card you can buy.

    PLUS / Good performance / Temperatures stay low / Decent bit of overclocking headroom MINUS / Limited VRAM / Tough competition from AMD at this price point
