Introduction

 

 

 

 

Continuing our look at the new GTX 660 Ti we were able to get our hands on the ZOTAC GTX 660 Ti AMP! Edition, which not only comes with overclocked clock frequencies, but it also, comes with an exclusive dual slot thermal solution and each ZOTAC AMP! Edition goes through rigorous tweaking and tuning to extract additional performance from the GeForce graphics processors, yielding unprecedented performance in its class. Expect nothing but the best gaming experience with the ZOTAC GeForce AMP! Edition graphics cards.

 

In comparison to the reference Nvidia GTX 660 Ti the Zotac AMP! Edition comes with a max GPU Boost clock speed of 1111MHz, which is nearly 14% faster than the reference model, but since the AMP! Edition card uses a costume thermal solution is only 7.5-inches instead of the standard 9-inches design of the graphics cards that use the standard blower style fan. Additionally, the ZOTAC GTX 660 Ti supports all the latest Kepler features such as Nvidia Surround, 3D Vision and Adaptive VSync.

 

With higher clock speeds and a custom thermal solution the AMP! Edition graphics card is sure to turn some heads. However, the custom design will most extra, as this model has a retail price of $330, a full $30 more than the reference models. Still, in the grand scheme of things the GTX 660 Ti AMP! is still cheaper than the HD 7950 and has similar performance.
