MSI GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) N570GTX-M2D12D5/OC Video Card

I love this video card. It makes games pop like I've never seen before. I went from 14 FPS in Rift to 77 FPS and that was with Ultra settings.

The performance is definitely a great value. Shogun Total War runs smooth on full settings minus extreme anthroscopic filtering. Two worlds 2 runs smoothly on full settings. The fan runs very quietly I can barely hear my computer anymore. Overall very pleased with this video card.

I love this thing. I maxed crysis 2 no problems, it handles daily multiscreening, and got some good results in 3dmark 11.

I had to reset the graphics card to the normal GTX 570 settings and overclock it manually to make it stable. Maybe I got a bad card in the pack but Artifacts on factory overclocked cards are unacceptable.However the GTX 570 itself is a great card.

A very great card and you probably can't get better for that price since I got it for 329,99$ - 20$ MIR - 20$ Gift Card = 289,99$. Great performance without noise and low temps.Get that bad boy!

I bought this card because my 6950 unlocked sucked. I got the 6950 on sale, but I don't like ATI, ATI's cooler design, or their lack of CUDA and Physx. The 570 is great! I had to exchange it at NCIX because it artifacted a little. I ordered a water block today and I'm going to water cool the card. then OC for fun! MSI is great and has AMAZING support as always!

Picked up this card as part of an overhaul to my system. If you are looking for raw power then this is the card for you. I'm running it at stock speeds and it's exceeding my expectations.

Playing StarCraft 2 on ultra setting is nice. Starting the game within minute the ups is overloaded. The card must have really drain alot of power, I am speculating. Exit the game, the ups is doesn't beep anymore. I had the Asus GTX470 prior to this one, so I decided to give MSI a try. Must say, I am really impress with the performance of this card compare to the Asus GTX470. All specs aside, the temperature is much cooler and hence the fan is less noisy. The box is not really impessive as the ASUS but the MSI include the mini HDMI to HDMI adapter which is a plus for me--while the ASUS GTX470 did not. The thing is, this card is longer than I expect--10.5" LONG. I overlooked the spec when order. Have to move the hard drives out of the way so it can (barely) fit inside the Antec 1200 case. So far so good, time will tell.

I picked up the card with the rebates, but now having RMAed it, I've lost my savings. I tried everything to pinpoint the cards failure point including different drivers, max cooling, reducing clocks to OEM levels, stress testing, and using several games. This error still occurred after +45mins of gaming (dl.dropbox.com/u/13091216/msigtx570.jpg).I've been with ATI awhile, and if I receive a properly working card, I want to SLI this 570 with another. But right now, I'm out a desktop and wonder if all this will screw up the mail-in-rebate and I lose all my savings.3 stars because I believe I just got a bad apple.

Good cardOC'd be default by quite a bit unlike EVGA which usually OC their card 10MHz more and slap an OC sticker on itI was able to overclock it to about 860MHz using afterburner without any voltage tweeksAfterburner and Kombustor are pretty good tools from MSI for overclockingDuring winter it idles around 38c and gets to about 87c full load.It runs pretty much all games with max settings pretty wellThe fan is really quiet too. You won't hear it unless you really try to make it run hot with Furmark/Kombustor.AMD equivalent is priced slightly better than this though

Awesome card! I bought this brand over the other 570 because it’s on the sales page. No need for lifetime warrantee since I will replace it in 2-3 years. Seems like MSI over clocked the memory really high z 1050 so it might mean its stable for them to sell it and that I just need to clock the core z 850 to call it a day.I will be replacing my Q8400 z 3.3 GHz since my 3dmark score made a TINY change from my old HD5770.

I always wanted a GTX 570, since some other stuff I bought went on sale, I decided to buy this card for free shipping for the entire order and it was only $279.99. I'm glad I did, this card is A BEAST. It runs at very low temperatures!My CPU unfortunately is bottlenecking this beast, but even so, I'm capping 60FPS on everything I play except Metro 2033. I suspect when I get a new CPU (Sandy bridge) it'll cap 60 FPS as well since I'm getting average 40FPS on Metro 2033 DX11.I don't find a need to OC this card any further for now, but MSI Afterburner looks sick and provides easy OCing. So whenever I feel like I need more FPS, I'll just OC the card.I've always been a big fan on MSI products, MSI has yet to let me down! Highly recommended!
