The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 is a mid-range desktop graphics card based on the Kepler GK104 chip. It is significantly faster than the mobile Nvidia GeForce GTX 760M for laptops. Depending on the chip temperature and power consumption the core can be clocked between 980-1033 MHz (or even higher). The GDDR5 graphics memory of the 760 is clocked at 3000 MHz (6000 MHz effective).
On average the performance of the GTX 760 is between the GTX 660 and 770 / 680 in the Nvidia lineup and between the Radeon R9 270X and the R9 280 from AMD. The performance is sufficient for maximum detail settings in full HD resolution (for games from 2014 and earlier). However, in some games like Crysis 3 and Thief the average frame rate we tested was only about 30fps (see below).
The power consumption is rated at 160 Watt TDP (load).
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580
► remove from comparisonDie NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 ist eine High-End Desktop Grafikkarte welche Ende 2010 vorgestellt wurde. Sie basiert auf den GF110 Fermi Chip im Vollausbau. Das heisst die 580 bietet 512 Shader, 64 Textureinheiten und 16 Polymorph Engines. As Besonderheit der Fermi Architektur werden die Shader doppelt so schnell getaktet wie der Rest des Chips (z.B. die Textureinheiten).
Die Leistung der GTX 580 liegt deutlich über der mobilen GeForce GTX 580M (welche eigentlich eine geringer getaktete GTX 560 Ti ist). Im Vergleich zur Konkurrenz liegt die GTX 580M etwa auf dem Niveau einer Radeon HD 7950. Die Nachfolgekarte der Kepler Generation namens GTX 680 kann sich mit etwa 30% Vorsprung deutlich absetzen.
Mit einem TDP von 244 Watt ist die GTX 580 eine der stromhungrigsten Grafikkarten und benötigt für den Betrieb ein starkes Netzteil.
