Technical features
The PNY GTX 560 OC2, being an overclocked version, presents greater operating frequency than the reference version .
The GPU clock was increased from 822MHz to 900MHz, while the shaders and memory are overclocked to 1800MHz and 1053MHz respectively, against the 1645MHz and 1002MHz of the base version.
This overclock then led to an increase of Texture Fillrate, Pixel Fillrate and memory bandwidth, and consequently to an increase in performance.
These characteristics were found using the GPU-Z Software.
The Nvidia reference cooling system can optimally manage these frequencies and temperatures at idle are only 33 °C. Temperatures rise in full a lot and after a few minutes FurMark reach 80 °C. Even though high, they are not alarming and during gaming sessions these temperatures are very difficult to achieve.
