14 DAY TRIAL // When it comes down to graphics cards, Inno3D is one of those manufacturers that have chosen to remain exclusive to Nvidia's solutions, so it comes as no surprise to anyone to see the Taiwanese company release her own version of the just announced GTX 570 graphics card.
Although calling it “her own” sounds a bit far fetched as Inno3D's only contribution was to add her custom colorful sticker to the reference GTX 570, the Inno3D GeForce GTX 570 is still a force to be reckoned with as the GF110 CPU that powers the GTX 570 video card is one of the fastest graphics solutions available out there.
In fact, early reviews suggest the GTX 570 delivers about the same level of performance as the previous GF100 king of the hill, the GTX 480, while also coming with an improved power consumption and better cooling thanks to its refined architecture.
Speaking of architecture, the GTX 110 drops one of the 16 stream modules available in the full GF110 core (that is used for the GTX 580) as well as a part of its level 2 cache, a memory controller and some ROPs and texturing units.
As a result, the GTX 570 packs 480 CUDA cores, 60 texture address and filtering units and 40 ROPs, the memory interface being limited at 320-bit compared to the 384-bit bus that is to be found on the GTX 580.
As far as its operating frequencies are concerned, the core is run at 732MHz while the 1.28GB of GDDR5 memory is clocked at a 3800MHz data rate, this reference frequencies being followed to the letter by Inno3D's offering.
Unfortunately, Inno3D hasn't provided us with any informations regarding the price of their GeForce GTX 570 graphics card, although it's pretty safe to assume this will get the same $350 price tag as all the other reference clocked GTX 570 graphics cards available out there.
