Today we are checking out Gainward's premier GeForce GTX 960 graphics card, the Phantom 4GB. Equipped with twice the memory buffer of standard cards, it is designed for extreme 1080p gaming. Therefore it will be interesting to see how the Phantom 4GB compares to a 2GB GTX 960...

Released a year ago now the GeForce GTX 960 is still Nvidia's go to mainstream graphics card for gamers looking to spend around $200. The GTX 960 bangs heads with the Radeon R9 380, as both occupy the same price range and deliver similar performance.

Out of the box the Radeon graphics card typically has an edge over the GTX 960. That said, due to superior efficiency the GeForce can nudge ahead in the hands of those willing to dabble in the art of overclocking.
