Product Details

Overview

The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 OC 2GB (Model: GV-N960OC-2GD, rev 1.0) is a highly efficient, compact graphics card designed to deliver reliable 1080p gaming performance. Built on NVIDIA's power-optimized 28nm Maxwell architecture, this card is engineered to squeeze maximum performance out of a small footprint. Gigabyte has enhanced this model with their Ultra Durable 2 design philosophy, utilizing solid capacitors, ferrite core chokes, and Low RDS(on) MOSFETs to ensure exceptional durability, lower operating temperatures, and superior power efficiency.

Architecture & Performance

At the heart of the GV-N960OC-2GD is the GM206 graphics processor, featuring 1024 CUDA Cores and a 128-bit memory bus interface driving 2GB of high-speed GDDR5 VRAM. As a factory-overclocked edition, it operates at a base clock of 1190 MHz and a boost clock of 1253 MHz in OC mode (compared to the reference 1127 MHz / 1178 MHz). The card delivers solid framerates in popular esports titles such as League of Legends, Valorant, and Counter-Strike 2 at 1080p resolutions, while fully supporting advanced Maxwell features like Multi-Frame Sampled Anti-Aliasing (MFAA), Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR), and DirectX 12.

Key Technical Specifications
