ASUS GTX 660 TI-DC2T-2GD5

VERDICT: Good performance, great bang for your buck !

FOR: Excellent performance, effective cooling, factory overclocked.

AGAINST: Big size, no bundled game.

Asus has stuck to Nvidia's reference PCB (printed circuit board) but thaey have used a custom cooler on this one. This card measures 10.7 inches on length which is definitely BIG.
Moving on to technical aspects;
The cooler uses copper pipes to direct heat from the core effectively. The aluminium fins help dissipate the heat, which is then cooled by the two fans.
For connectivity, this card boasts two Dual-link DVI conectors, one HDMI and a full sized DisplayPort.

Asus has also pushed the clock speed of the card a bit : the core is clocked at 1059 MHz while 2GB GDDR5 memory is clocked at 1052 MHz.
Besides a DVI-VGA adapter and a PCIe to Molex power adapter Asus commits a sin for not bundling
 any game with the card.

 

SAIM'S TAKE:

Priced at Rs. 20,500 this card provides excellent performance despite of no bundled games or its huge size. This card can easily handle all latest games with all eye candy maxed out. This a great bang for your buck.
