Hardware Canucks have just reviewed five different GeForce GTX 275 models from BFG, EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI, and Sparkle.

Here's an excerpt:

"In its stock form this card provides surprisingly good value when compared to Nvidia’s top of the line GTX 285 and proves itself to be a perfect alternative to its closest competition: ATI’s HD4890 1GB. Indeed, when you look at things from a pure price / performance standpoint, the GTX 275 is extremely hard to beat. As we mentioned in our original review: GTX 285 performance for a lot less money.

Unfortunately, the show and tell portion of this roundup was a bit dull due to the fact that when it comes to higher-end cards, most of Nvidia’s board partners just don’t have the luxury (or R&D money) to develop their own custom designs. The same goes for custom cooling solutions as well but at least these same manufacturers have been gung-ho to increase clock speeds to stratospheric levels.


If you are in the market for a GeForce GTX 275 (and given their price/performance ratio why wouldn't you be?), this roundup is definitely worth checking out.
