The GTX 780 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Kepler set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 770 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 399. NVIDIA ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Kepler graphics card inside the GTX 770, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.
Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, R9 280X, the GTX 770 was -8 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Valorant at 82 fps to 82 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 82 fps.
For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 67 fps to 67 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 67 fps.
The GTX 580 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Fermi 2.0 set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 570 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 349. NVIDIA ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Fermi 2.0 graphics card inside the GTX 570, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.
Spec for spec, this GTX 570 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 470, by boasting 43.1 % more fps. In our synthetic benchmarks, the GTX 570 blows past the GTX 470 and, amazingly, even the GTX 480 as well.
Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, HD 6970, the GTX 570 was 6.2 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 570 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 470 and it really justifies an upgrade.
