EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 2GB GDDR5 02G-P3-1568-KR graphics card

2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 frame buffer

The EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti is a PCI Express 2.0 x16 graphics card built on the NVIDIA Fermi architecture. It targets enthusiasts who need 2GB of video memory for high-resolution textures and multi-monitor setups. The GPU provides 384 CUDA cores clocked at 1645 MHz alongside a core frequency of 822 MHz. DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 support enable modern API features for compatible titles.

Fermi architecture sustained behaviour

Under continuous load the 4000 MHz effective memory clock feeds the 256-bit interface to maintain bandwidth for tessellation-heavy scenes. The 400 MHz RAMDAC drives analogue outputs without signal degradation during extended sessions. Thermal output scales with the 822 MHz core and 1645 MHz shader domains, so case airflow must handle the Fermi design's steady-state power draw. Driver optimisations for the GTX 500 series keep frame pacing consistent over long renders.

PCI Express 2.0 x16 interface limits

The 2.0 x16 link caps theoretical bandwidth at 8 GB/s per direction, which can restrict data transfers in modern engines that stream assets aggressively. DirectX 11 feature level 11_0 support ends at Shader Model 5.0, so newer API extensions such as ray tracing or mesh shaders are unavailable. Maximum digital resolution stops at 2560 x 1600 across the two DVI ports and single mini HDMI connector. The 2GB GDDR5 pool also becomes a constraint when texture budgets exceed the frame buffer capacity.
