GeForce GTX 570

Vortez

If space were an issue then the MSI GTX570 1280MB Twin Frozr III Power Edition OC is the best GTX570 we have tested to date.

We are big fans of the GTX570 family here at Vortez thanks to its excellent bang-per-buck and here is where the KFA2 finds its footing, beating the competition. £240 is not cheap by any stretch of the imagination but considering it can game at high resolutions it is relatively low when compared to other graphics cards capable of hi-res gaming. In today’s current economic climate, people are looking for products that offer great value for money and this is where the KFA2 GTX570 scores high

Overclock 3D Best of 2011 - KFA2 GTX570

"We've always said here at OC3D that if it was our wallet on the line we'd plump for a GTX570 as the perfect balance of performance and price, and the KFA2 GTX570 was the finest GTX570 we tested..."

Amazing performance, stunning looks, cool and quiet. We can't think of anything we don't like about it and it's an easy winner of the OC3D Gold Award.

Pocket-Lint – Battlefield 3 review – It’s explosive

“...with an Nvidia 560 ti and up, [go for PC], it will blow your mind.”

GameSpot UK - Building a Battlefiled 3 PC: A Console Gamer's Story

“With price and power consumption at front of mind, I went [with the] GTX 570. Sitting at the upper mid-range of Nvidia's lineup, it doesn't cost an absolute fortune...

...while still offering great performance that bests ATI's more expensive Radon 6970. Two 560s in SLI were an option too, but if I decide to go SLI with an extra 570 later, the performance will be better.”

“With Battlefield 3, it's satisfying to for once find a multi-platform game that still sets the PC version aside to show what could be possible in the next generation of hardware.”

“From the GeForce LAN 6 event in San Francisco this week, we have a host of videos taken from a ‘behind-the-scenes’ keynote with Johan Andersson, DICE’s visual architect. Grab yourself a coffee, sit back, and enjoy this five-part video showcase.”

“[the PC is the best experience], both through its application of innovative technologies and by offering a tangible glimpse of the future, and thus it ensures that rumours of its death continue to be greatly exaggerated.”

So as well as being quieter, cooler and less power hungry, this latest line up of Nvidia cards are also significantly quicker. And that's definitely no mean feat of engineering.

The introduction of the GeForce GTX 570 GPU solidifies NVIDIA's high-end line-up for 2010. Sensible tweaks in the Fermi architecture and a revised cooler makes this second-rung 500-series card a genuinely better bet than the previous champ, GeForce GTX 480. It's just as fast in games but, importantly, is cheaper, quieter and less power-hungry.

All in all, it’s a superb card. Just like the GTX 580 1.5GB, it offers a significant jump in performance over the previous generation, it runs both cool and quiet and it’s well priced in comparison to the competition. ...Is it too late to change our Christmas lists?

Techradar

Because it's based on the GTX 580's improved architecture and cooling design it's actually as fast, and sometimes faster, than the previous generation's GTX 480. The fact it can hit those speeds without going louder or being more power hungry is impressive.

Hardware Heaven

Improving on every aspect of the previous generation is always a good thing however it can mean very little if the card doesn't compare well with a competitors model. Thankfully for NVIDIA and Inno3D they have a product on their hands which exceeds the performance of the fastest single GPU competitor model. In addition to that the GTX 570 also offers a better stereoscopic 3D gaming experience than the Radeon and of course allows us to use PhysX.

PC Pro

Nvidia’s latest cements its place as the current graphics speed king. It remains to be seen how AMD’s upcoming flagship cards will measure up, but for now the GTX 570 is a solid enthusiast choice.

It's everything that a slimmer version of the full-fat card should be. Not quite as expensive, not quite as powerful, but still with plenty of grunt. Suddenly NVIDIA have re-entered the fray with two products so stunning and so much faster than AMDs latest efforts that, if they aren't quite out the park, they certainly have been knocked to the warning track.
