Evga GTX 960 SC vs SSC

[zenod]

Hy all,

I was wondering if there is any difference between the GTX 960 superclocked and supersuperclocked of evga. I want to replace my old AMD HD 8570, but I am not sure if I would get the SSC inside my case as its 10 cm longer than the SC version. Now my question is: what is really the difference between the two. Is the SC louder, less powerfull, more energydemanding? Please let me know.

I assume your talking about the single fan one and the duel fan one ?? the single fan states Length: 6.8in - 172.72mm.. the 2 fan one is Length: 10.1in - 256.5mm ???

give the part numbers

also clock rates maybe different all is stated at the evga product pages

I was comparing the SC: 02G-P4-2962-KR and the SSC:02G-P4-2966-KR

just like what was said above .. out side of that its a judgement call on weather the 2 fan fit is a issue in some way

the user reviews seem good for both cards as well ?

''Now my question is: what is really the difference between the two. ''

well 2 fans over one - longer card - clock speeds ?


I guess it comes down to your needs . is it you want the slightly stronger card, but may have to do some work incase it don't fit right ?? or the card that should do as good of job but seems to have no case fit issues ??

the 2966 is stronger but I don't think its going to be overwhelming stronger they can boost the clocks up a bit more due to it has a 2 fan set up ..

if just case fit was the concern go for the short card I don't see it hurting you overall reviewers seem happy with it like from egg and here as well

so to me it would be down to case fit ease ..


good luck
