Are there performance differences between the longer Asus GTX 650 Ti and the EVGA model? I think that the Asus might be quieter and faster (2 fans)

I've had no experience with the Asus model, but I can tell you that even a little digital image manipulation results in a hell of a lot of fan acceleration, both on the video board, the comuter case fan, and the CPU fan. The short EVGA model dumps its hot (very hot air) out right into the Mobo RAM...just where it's needed :( Additionally, I've had a difficult time getting the optimal NVidia driver to install, but that very well may be a Mobo issue. Hope this helps. NOTE: If you buy the "longer" Asus model, make sure you have room in your case.

Sorry I'm so late but the only difference I know is that asus has a 1gb digital memory model whereas the EVGA has 2GB digital memory. Hope this helps for future references.

Hi... Yes use the evga cooler its better, looks soooo good and its quiet (:

Yes even on 50 %. Nvidia cards are typically quiet compared to AMD. I have two and I barely hear them half of the time. They do make my room heat up like a sauna.

Best was to compare the two cards. 660 less then 600 Cudas. 65oTiBoost 790 Cuda's and a higher processing rate then the 660. basically take the 660 and multiply all its defaults by 1.85 and you get the 650Ti Boost. boost tech is whats now in all the current gen as the 2nd Gen tech there using to make them run faster and stronger then before.

I believe if you overclock the card, especially if you have 2 of them in SLI, they might produce some noise. I have a lower-end GTX660 (might upgrade to the GTX-780 in 3-5 years) and at its default settings, it runs pretty quiet.So again, it all depends on if you're planning to overclock the card.

Hi, if you plan to overclock your graphics card then I strongly recommend this card. If you don't overclock then I would go with the Superclocked edition. You really can't go wrong with any of these cards but I will say the ACX cooling works very well and is super quiet compared to the vapor chamber single fan coolers that some of the models have. I hope that helps enjoy!!

Really a silly question. Better for what? Performance or quiet? The performance is better at cooling while the quiet cools also but not as well since its are to be smaller and quieter. If you don't overclock or use cpu heavy programs/tasks (like editing or conversions) then the quiet will be more than enough while also being cheaper. If your a gamer than you should already have gpu with its own cooling that doesn't tax the cpu.

I am not sure why you would by this instead GTX 770 for just $20 more. If I had that option, I would have done that too. I had a EVGA GTX 670 in my machine but it burnt up due to my lack of cleaning the dust from the card. Make sure you vacuum and than blow air through your machine at least once a month. I have pets so I have to do it twice a month.

They are both basically the same card, but EVGA usually has a tendency to make very high quality NVidia cards. One system I made has this card installed in it and another one has the EVGA one in it and this one is a bit louder once the fans hit a certain RPM threshold. Neither card came with any cables that I can remember minus PSU convertors and DVI to VGA adapter.

Your card should have a fan on it already. If that is not enough just turn the computer off and let it cool down. Check with the specs on your computer. You can only upgrade so far. I wanted a stronger one myself but EVGA has not made an upgrade for my computer for some time now. But shop around you may find one that I have not seen yet. Let me know if you do. I may just upgrade to a new computer with a dual or triple slot graphics card. Hope this helps you out some.

The biggest difference is the extra cooling fan, which allows the card to work harder while still staying at a safe temperature. I personally think this is worth the extra $15

Hey Ace, this is not a "huge" upgrade. I bumped up from a 460 to this and I really enjoy it, but I am still going to do the EVGA step up program and step up to either a 770 or 780.

The GV-N65TOC-1G is marginally faster though I would suspect that they would perform similarly. In Crysis you would see about a 5 frame drop on the '650 Ti' vs the '650 Ti OC'.

I have the 650w version. It says on the box that could run two 75w graphic card and a 50w cpu. I have only one gtx 250 sli, with like 10 fans and several lights. It's running fantastic. However yours will require around 700w for two of those cards. I would recommend getting 750w for overclocking or even more expansion down the road. I'm jealous btw I'm sure that card is awesome.

It depends on what kind of GPUs you'll be using. I tried to push two GTX 780's, and it wasn't enough for benchmarking. It ran for regular games, but you really want more headroom so you're not pushing your power supply so hard.

Nope, as long as you don't damage the card. EVGA is great about that as with most things. As for heat, keep in mind the 770 is much more powerful and will run hotter. These cards can run quite hot and usually it is nothing to worry about unless the noise bothers you.

Are you trying to compare this EVGA with the MSI power edition??? If this is OK then choose MSI with eyes closed, it's better. If I'm wrong, I can't help you jejeje maybe this page can help you, but I think it will no answer your question. http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
