How good is the 560 ti really?

It seem to good to be true, cheap and fast? I'm considering this GPU, any owners of it wanna give me their impressions?

No its not very good, Nvidia just made it and decided that the numbers fit well, and stuck a price on it.

They were just bored that day, and wanted to sucker every person in, so they just decided to rename the GTX460 and market it as a GTX560 and the Ti bit is just to sound cool, like Titanium or Titan.

PS. If you havent realised im being sarcastic...

I have a Gigabyte GTX 560 Ti SOC (super overclock), and it's a beast. The cooler is very quiet, and it came clocked at 950mhz core stock. The VRAM was also overclocked out of the box to the point where the card has 146gb/s of memory bandwidth. It was about $10 more than a Vanilla 560 Ti, and it comes within about 2-3% of the performance of a GTX 570 in most games. I'd say it's a great GPU, and a great buy. You don't have to get a factory OC'd version though.. The majority of "vanilla" versions overclock well enough to get them into the same ballpark.

Here is the newest review I could find on a 560 ti Guru3d MSI 560 ti July 5 2011

Seems to be a really good card.

My brother has one and it struggles with Metro 2033. But that is basically the only game so far, and it isn't say much because even the 580 struggles if the resolution is high enough. It seems like a really good card for the money.

Any game I have thrown at mine thus far it has blown it away. Playing at 1080p also, I'm sure it would struggle at res' higher though.
