NVidia have introduced two new, what they are calling “high-performnace” GPUs, called GeForce GTX 660 and GeForce GTX 650, both of which are Kepler-based, and will “allow more gamers to experience the richness of next-generation PC gaming.”
The game will be paired with a lineup of games that will be supporting DX11, including Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Assassin’s Creed III and World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria.
GTX 660 and GTX 650 are priced starting $229 and $109 respectively, and will be available on almost all major add-in card suppliers, including- ASL, ASUS, Colorful, ECS, EVGA, Gainward, Galaxy, Gigabyte, Innovision 3D, Jetway, Leadtek, MSI, Palit, Point of View, PNY, Sparkle and Zotac.
The GeForce GTX 660 represents a phenomenal upgrade opportunity for gamers still playing games on last-generation graphics technology. For the millions of gamers still gaming on the GeForce 9800 GT, the 4X performance improvement[i] delivered by the GTX 660 will be an upgrade temptation not easily resisted. Similarly, the GTX 650 delivers an 8X performance improvement over the 9500 GT[ii], allowing gamers to step up to the GTX family with a low-cost solution that delivers a significant boost in performance.
Packed with cutting-edge technologies integrated into the NVIDIA Kepler architecture—including DirectX 11 Tessellation, NVIDIA PhysX, NVIDIA Adaptive VSync, and Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TXAA)—only GeForce GTX GPUs, such as the new GTX 660 and GTX 650, will ensure gamers have the most immersive gaming experience possible.
