What’s so great about the TOP line of cards from ASUS is that they’re actually overclocked to a level where a decent performance can be seen. So many companies these days offer an overclock, but a few MHz on the core and a couple MHz on the memory doesn’t really equate to that much of a performance increase; all it tends to do is constantly just put it ahead of a reference based card.
The TOP line of cards aren’t like this, though; ASUS seem to put a bit of time and effort into the overclocking process and really find out what exactly the cards are capable of, which in turn tends to make them some of the fastest cards on the market in their category.
Today we’re looking at the GTX 260 which is currently only second to the GTX 280 in the NVIDIA food chain. As usual, ASUS has done an impressive job with the clocks which equates to some nice performance. Before we check out the clocks and performance, though, let’s quickly take the time to see what ASUS has done with the bundle and the card itself.
