Review: EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost Superclocked

Final thoughts and rating

EVGA has taken NVIDIA's newest GPU and launched a SuperClocked version that is unlikely to be beaten by any other GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB in pure performance terms.

The inherent problem for EVGA in pushing the core frequency boat out - the memory remains at reference speeds, however - is a retail price that's just below £150. The current GeForce positioning is such that, for the same outlay, it's possible to purchase a partner-overclocked GTX 660 - a card that will provide at least 10 per cent more performance in all games.

We continue to come away with the feeling that NVIDIA and its partners really need to take another look at the mainstream GeForce product stack and pricing, especially in the UK, and ensure the GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB has a chance to succeed. We'd definitely recommend this card at £120, but there's simply too much good competition, mostly from NVIDIA's faster GTX 660 GPU, for it to be on our shortlist at the current £150 price point.

The Good

Highest core clock on Ti Boost
Three-year warranty
Nice and quiet

The Bad

UK pricing doesn't make sense
