Now with twice the GDDR5 memoryThere were rumors earlier this year that 4GB versions of Nvidia's GeForce GTX 960 graphics card would show up in March, and it turns out they were right. EVGA has emerged as the first to cross into 4GB territory with its GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC graphics card announced today. Though it's a mid-range card, EVGA is promoting the benefit of higher texture qualities and better 4K resolution gaming performance with the added memory.
To keep the things cool and quiet, EVGA has also outfitted its newest graphics card with its ACX 2.0+ custom cooler.
"The new EVGA ACX 2.0+ cooler brings new features to the award winning EVGA ACX 2.0 cooling technology. A Memory MOSFET Cooling Plate (MMCP) reduces MOSFET temperatures up to 11C, and optimized Straight Heat Pipes (SHP) reduce GPU temperature by 5C," EVGA says. "ACX 2.0+ coolers also feature optimized Swept fan blades, double ball bearings and an extreme low power motor, delivering more air flow with less power, unlocking additional power for the GPU."
EVGA's GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC sports 1,279MHz base and 1,342MHz boost clockspeeds, which are overclocked from the reference design's 1,127MHz base and 1,178MHz boost specifications. The 4GB of GDDR5 memory stays at stock (7,010MHz) on a 128-bit bus.
The card is also notable for its dual-BIOS design. Should something go wrong while tinkering, you can switch to a secondary BIOS with a quick flip of a switch.
No word yet on when the 4GB card will be available or for how much. There is, however, a "Notify Me" button on the card's product page.
