GeForce GTX 570 Partner Cards


As with the GeForce GTX 580 1.5GB, the first batch of GTX 570 1.3GB partner cards will all be based on the reference design. This means that cards will only really be differentiated by their supplied bundles, warranties and any factory overclock that might be applied.

EVGA GeForce GTX 570 1.3GB

Manufacturer: EVGA
UK Price (as reviewed): £TBC (inc VAT)
US Price (as reviewed): $TBC (ex tax)

EVGA's GeForce GTX 570 1.3GB is also a stock card, again using the new vapour chamber cooler used for all GTX 570 1.3GB reference cards. Included in the box are two dual-Molex to 6-pin PCI-E power connectors, a mini-HDMI to HDMI adaptor and a DVI to D-Sub adaptor. EVGA also includes in own excellent in-house overclocking software, EVGA Precision.

EVGA currently offers a ten year warranty on its cards, so long as the card is registered with EVGA within 30 days of purchase.

EVGA will also be offering a SuperClock (SC) version of the GTX 570 1.3GB with an MSRP of £315, shipping with a factory overclock of 65MHz on the GPU core and 25MHz (100MHz effective) on the memory, giving the card a 797MHz GPU core, 1,594MHz stream processors and 3.9GHz effective memory. We'll be doing a separate overclocking article later this week to discern the GTX 570 1.3GB's overclocking potential, but from these factory overclocks, it seems as though this card has plenty extra in the tank.

Zotac GeForce GTX 570 1.3GB

Manufacturer: Zotac
UK Price (as reviewed): TBC (inc VAT)
US Price (as reviewed): TBC (ex tax)

Zotac's GTX 570 1.3GB is a stock card, using the new design of vapour chamber cooler beneath the plastic shroud. The bundle includes two dual Molex to 6-pin PCI-E power connectors for legacy power support, a mini-HDMI to HDMI adaptor, a DVI to D-Sub adaptor and a copy of Price of Persia: Forgotten Sands. Also included is Zotac's in-house over clocking application, Boost Premium.

Zotac currently offers a two year warranty if you register within 14 days of purchase, otherwise the warranty reverts to the standard one year warranty with the retailer. Zotac plans to release overclocked cards under its Amp! Edition brand soon; it’s likely that these will also use the reference cooler, but we don’t know any further details at this time.
