That's a stupid idea. The MSI and ASUS versions both get higher OCs than the Gigabyte, and they are much cooler.

Get the EVGA so you can buy mine

But I'd probably get MSI's twin frozr 3 or ASUS

I had the gigabyte version, It did 1000mhz @ 1.05 (1050 in afterburner, whatever that means) and it was near silent, even at load

Get the non-TOP version. In SLI the cards will run at the speed of the slower card. So it would downclock to 822 anyway. Even if you plan on overclocking the TOP version is a waste of $ because you just pay for the factory to OC the card.

Wait on the Twin Frozr 3 version from MSI!

@ Draygonn:
Finally a good answer
![tongue.gif]()
.
OP: Try and overclock your card first to see where u can reach. Then buy what ever card that suits you. If your card cant reach 950 mhz then u cant buy the gigabyte 1 cause ull crash (in sli). Also even if you are able to hit 950mhz, watch the temps. In sli temps are higher and stability is harder. My advie get a non-reference card with slight oc. Asus DCII non-top or msi twinfrzr II

Are these 560's hitting well over 1GHz? Normally I wouldn't bother with a factory OC'ed card but 950 or 1000 is pretty damn fast.
