Graphics Superclocked MSI Hawk N560 TI

Just bought this for my secondary rig, what you guys think of it in comparison to other Ti's?

 

I thought superclocked was an EVGA trademark? Anyways if it was the same price as a normal 560 ti, then the Hawk is an excellent choice, great cooling and acceptable noise compared to that bloody reference design.

 

Not sure was labelled as superclocked on novatech:

It's the updated http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2011/01/27/msi-geforce-gtx-560-ti-1gb-review/1 is it not?

In which case , I think it probably got a bit tech gold award of excellence

 

Great card, fan is a little noisy at 70% but it is capable of holding the card when heavily overclocked at 71C (in my case) so I'm very happy with it

 

its a twin frozr III and has a red line on the card, so not that one as reviewed by bittech

 

which has the twin frozr II on it. So, it's going to be pretty similar eh?

Here is what google has found me so far:

Make your mind up from those I suppose.

Highlights include No. 4 where somebody mentions that the twin frozr III now cools the vrms as well. SO if you are overclocking, it's better to go twin frozr III. That's if the information isn't just conjecture.

p.s. let me know what performance you get out of whatever you choose as I am toying with either a gpu upgrade or jumping ship to 2500k and keeping my hawk for another 6 months or so.

Sarcastic edit: Oh ****, I didn't realise it has a red line on it. Well if that's the case you're ****ed son. Red is the colour of hot and that thing is going to burn down your house and melt the polar caps. Better look else where!!! /joke
