That seems pretty good for a custom cooled, overclocked GTX 275 but unfortunately stock versions of the card have fallen tremendously in the last couple of months, to as low as $230. Currently looking at Newegg, you can find the overclocked Galaxy offering selling for about $294. From the battery of tests, you can see that the GeForce GTX 275 and the overclocked Radeon HD 4870 to Radeon HD 4890 specs trade off in a few games. If there is one drawback to the Galaxy GTX 275 OC, it might be in the price of the unit. The GeForce GTX 275 card came out ahead time time around with a 3FPS lead over the Radeon HD 4870 OC. The Galaxy overclocked GTX 275 offers a modest performance increase over the standard reference GTX 275 graphics cards on the market though I truly think that with just a bit more time tweaking the clock speeds of the core and shader clocks, the custom cooler on the card will allow you to get even more performance out of your purchase. NVIDIA’s GT200 architecture is proving to be quite versatile in terms of performance scaling and features and even though the AMD lineup of Radeon HD 4800 cards is impressive and competitive, you really are going to have a great gaming experience either way you decide to go. The GeForce GTX 275 GPU is a terrific performing option for users looking at a high-end single-GPU gaming solution for their current or updated gaming rig. Compared to the Radeon HD 4890, the GTX 275 OC from Galaxy benefits from the NVIDIA GPU’s ability to run at an extremely low power state at idle and saves nearly 30 watts on total system power draw. The power consumption on the Galaxy GTX 275 OC is actually more impressive than we expected – even though it runs at faster speeds than base GTX 275, it uses less power at load and only a few more watts of power under idle conditions.
