Palit or Galaxy are probably the ones that made these cards

So, we suppose that there won't just be one GeForce GTX 750 video card out this month. Apparently, there will be a GTX 750 Ti board as well. Those two different versions of the GM107 chip now make perfect sense.

A picture of the first add-in-card partner-branded NVIDIA Maxwell-powered video cards has finally found its way to the Internet.

There is no clear indicator of which NVIDIA partner made the things, but it could be Galaxy or Palit given their looks.

The slightly taller card is, obviously, the GeForce GTX 750 Ti, and it even has its name scribed on the cooler shroud. It must be powered by the GM107-400, with 960 CUDA cores and 80 TMUs and 16 ROPs.

The other and slightly smaller board, GTX 750, must be based on the GM107-300, with 768 CUDA cores, 64 TMUs and 16 ROPs.

You'd think that these differences between the chips would be the only things setting the GTX 750 and GTX 750 Ti apart, but that's not the case.

The GPU-Z examinations and benchmark results reveal other differences, like the memory capacity.

Sure, they both use GDDR5 VRAM, but the GeForce GTX 750 has 1 GB while the GeForce GTX 750 Ti has 2 GB.

The GeForce GTX 750 runs the GPU at 1085 MHz (Base Clock) or 1163 MHz in a pinch (GPU Boost maximum setting). Meanwhile, the memory operates at 5.1 GHz. The bandwidth is of 81 GB/s.

The GeForce GTX 750 Ti has the same clocks for the GPU, but the 2 GB of GDDR5 VRAM operate at 5.5 GHz, leading to a bandwidth of 88 GB/s.

Keep in mind that these might not be the stock clock speeds. That said, a quick 3DMark 11 run (performance preset) saw the GTX 750 Ti scoring P5963 points, and the GTX 750 scoring P5250 points.
