MSI's GTX 570 Graphics Card to Come with 3DMark 11 Advanced Edition License

Nvidia's GTX 570 graphics card was just released and a slew of video card releases is coming our way, MSI being one of the first to announce their solution based on Nvidia's latest GPU that will also come with an 3DMark 11 Advanced Edition license key.

Dubbed the N570GTX-MD12D5, MSI's graphics card is based on the GF110 core that offers just about the same level of performance as the GTX 480 while running quieter and featuring a lower power consumption, as some of the early benchmarks have shown us.

As almost all other GTX 570 solutions available out there, MSI's graphics card doesn't differ to much form the reference GTX 570 design.

Furthermore, the card respects the reference clocks set by Nvidia for the GTX 570, the GPU being run at 732MHz while the 1.28GB of GDDR5 memory is clocked at 3800MHz.

As you have probably found out by now, the GTX 570 comes with 480 CUDA cores (the same number found in the GTX 480), a 320-bit memory interface, 40 ROP units and 60 FP16 texturing units doubling the number of texturing units found in the GTX 480.

Although MSI's offerings will most certainly perform as all the other GTX 570 available out there, the company sells its card with one of the most interesting bundles available that includes a 3DMark 11 Advanced Edition license as well as MSI’s own Afterburner tune up utility.

Used by almost every enthusiast and overclocker out there, the Afterburner software features overclocking as well as overvoltage support for the GTX 570, allowing its users to unlock the full potential of their graphics card.

In addition, MSI used all solid capacitors when building the GTX 570 leading to a prolonged life span and increased overclocking headroom.

Although no informations are provided for pricing and availability, a quick Goolge search revealed the N570GTX-MD12D5 is sold at the recommended $350 price point.
