Nvidia GTX 550 Ti Specs, Price Leaked

[Netherscourge]

If they sell it for $99.99 (or less) it'll be an awesome mainstream PC card.

 

[rpmrush]

Sounds like another OC 8800GT

I have a 5770 and I am happy with.
we want more than that, come on nvidia. heat up the competition.

 

[verbalizer]

interesting, not blown away however...

 

[zyzeast]

Sounds like a disappointment if it can't even beat a 5770.

Should be $140 max. If it's just an overclocked GTS-450, why stick both the GTX and Ti titles on it? If anything, call it the GTS-550 Ti and then elevate the non overclocked version to be the GTS-550 MX.

Internet issue or database issue? Missing responses? For another useless-named TI card? TI means.... Total Idiot?

Yea, I'm quite in love with the disappearing comments act. But, honestly...this card is about as pointless as they come. Throwing a "new card" (overclocked 460) into a full card market for a high tag? Really? I want some of what the guys over at Nvidia are smoking.

No, worse, it's an overclocked 450. The 460 will actually beat this thing. But as my deleted post said, it will NOT retail for that much money. It will cost $140 tops.

 

[AMD_pitbull]

Yes, sorry, missed the 5...lol. But, I have a feeling it's going to be more then 140. Only one way to find out.

Wow! This card's completely useless! I'm actually kind of impressed. They really should've skipped it since very other card in the 550 line has a purpose. I guess they'll get a few people who don't know anything to buy it--other than that, most people will OC GTS 450's on their own.

I guess the GTS X50 line now belongs to underachieving cards that hardly count as gaming cards and are outmatched by Radeon counterparts. That's too bad considering it was started by the legendary GF92 core.

To confuse the public, they make money from people not knowing that a 5770 is cheaper.

awesome dedicated phys-X card, but that's about it..
you'd have to have a GTX580 or GTX590 to pair it with tho.
that would technically be a phys-X beast of a machine.

$140+ makes the price way to high and the card not worth it however.

 

[Gman450]

This is just speculation. if its real, it would have just 10 buys in a year world wide!!

My opinion on this one, is that it should be at least better than the GTX 460 768 MB, or it would be just an epic fail ! Come on, $216 , for a card that can't even beat a $190 and down GTX 460 !!

 

[Gman450]

Why even give this GPU a 'GTX' model ?

 

[Guest]

This graphics card will be 128 or 192 bits? Can anyone confirm that?

 

[acdcninja]

this always happens. all this speculation, assholes making assumptions. remember the gtx 560 ti. 'theres no way a modified gf 104 core will reach gtx 470 speeds' not only did it reach its speed, it surpassed it. the only thing you can do is wait and see really. i dont think nvidia would put the gtx and ti tag on it for no reason. do you?
