One of MSI's first graphics cards based on NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce GTX 560 Ti GPU got listed on a European store. The N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II OC from MSI features the company's iconic Twin Frozr II GPU cooler, paired with the GTX 560 Ti GPU, overclocked out of the box at 880 MHz core and 1050 MHz (4.20 GHz GDDR5 effective) memory, against reference speeds of 820 MHz core and 1000 MHz (4.00 GHz) reference.
The Twin Frozr II, used on several MSI graphics card models till date, uses a dense aluminum fin array to which heat is conveyed by 8 mm thick heatpipes, ventilated by two 80 mm fans. MSI claims this cooler to keep the GPU up to 20°C cooler compared to NVIDIA reference cooler. It is currently listed at €280.33, but one can take this pricing with a pinch of salt, as pre-release prices tend to be a little higher.
Guess I will wait till mid-feb before buying a GPU.
