MSI N660 Gaming Pro Reviews

MSI updated their GeForce GTX 660 lineup with a new model from their GAMING series, undoubtedly to profit from the good reputation of the GAMING cards, and simply for the sake of launching a new GTX 660 at a time when people are shopping for upgrades that meet recommended system specs of this year's big fall-winter game launches (think Battlefield 4, COD: Ghosts, etc.). The new GTX 660 GAMING comes with a relatively average overclock out of the box, which results in a real-life improvement of 6% over the GTX 660 reference-design. The closest card from AMD is the Radeon HD 7870, which is around 3% slower. Overall, this means that you can play most titles at 1080p, if you are willing to sacrifice AA and some other details. It would have been nice to see a bigger overclock, and a memory overclock, both should be quite easy as we've seen such cards in the past.
