First pictures of EVGA’s upcoming Geforce GTX 660Ti have been leaked along with further specifications which suggests the card is officially headed for launch on 16th August.
The EVGA GTX 660Ti utilizes the GK104 core with the model no same as GTX 670 “GK104 325-A2″. The card is powered through a single 6 Pin connector featuring an rated TDP of 120W. Core clock is maintained at 980MHz/1023MHz Boost while memory runs at 6GHz effective.
Basically the most perfect mid-range card one can buy.
I will probably be getting this card even though it won't be a big upgrade from my current card.

The GTX 660 ti is expected to compete with the HD 7870 and maybe even match (or surpass) the HD 7950...so, yes, it will be more powerful than the HD 7850. But the HD 7850 is a great card. It is an awesome card for overclocking and pumps out perfectly smooth 60fps on the vast majority of games at 1920 x 1080 resolution. Only the most demanding games make it drop below that performance level.
1- Performance equivalent/better than the GTX 580.
2- 2GB memory allows for smooth gameplay, 1GB on your 560Ti causes stuttering at 1080P in most games e.g BF3, Arkham City, Even Skyrim with mods etc.
3- Lower Power consumption/temps. 150W compared to 225 on 560Ti.
4- Better at overclocking, No doubt 560Ti is a beast since at overclocking due to refined GF-104 core (GF114) but this ain't a low boy either.
