GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II 1GB

The MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II Golden Edition is a PCI Express 2.0 16X graphics card built around the GeForce GTX 560 Ti chipset. It carries 1GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256bit bus and draws auxiliary power through two 6pin connectors. The design targets desktop builders who need a dedicated GPU for legacy platforms.

PCI Express 2.0 16X bandwidth ceiling

The card operates on a PCI Express 2.0 16X link, which caps theoretical throughput at the 2.0 specification limit. System chipset and CPU lane allocation determine the practical bandwidth available to the GPU. Maximum display output is 2560×1600, so higher-resolution panels cannot be driven at their native pixel count.

1GB GDDR5 frame buffer headroom

The 1GB GDDR5 frame buffer running at 4200MHz handles mainstream 1080p workloads and older titles comfortably. Texture-heavy modern games or multi-monitor setups will exhaust the memory capacity, forcing texture streaming or resolution scaling. The 256bit interface sustains bandwidth for the core clock but cannot compensate for the capacity limit.

Questions about this item

Which version of this card should I choose if I need the 1GB GDDR5 model with dual 6-pin power connectors?

The Golden Edition ships with 1GB of GDDR5 on a 256-bit bus and requires two 6-pin power connectors, matching the listed specification exactly.

What does the 4200MHz memory clock mean for actual gaming performance?

The 4200MHz GDDR5 frequency delivers high memory bandwidth across the 256-bit interface, helping the GTX 560 Ti handle 1080p textures and anti-aliasing smoothly.

Will the PCI Express 2.0 16X slot limit this card in a modern motherboard?

The card runs on PCI Express 2.0 16X; current boards are backward compatible, so the slot will not bottleneck the GTX 560 Ti in typical workloads.
