Performance: As seen in the graphs above, ZOTAC GTX 560Ti AMP Edition scores the highest across all games. It also is the only card to cross the 40 FPS barrier for Crysis Warhead, within its price category. EVGA GTX 560Ti was the only card that provided some competition. Even with AA on, you get great playable frame rates.
The downside of having such a souped up card is the temperatures. Just like the frame rates, the ZOTAC card had the highest load temperature as well, something not to be proud about. An after market GPU cooler will really help keeping temperatures lower.
