What brand is the card? What voltage a 900?

Now run Vantage without cheating :p: Set PhysX to run on the CPU in the nV control panel.

Cheating is a strong word. Perhaps Gaul just doesn't know. Gaul, when you post scores for Vantage, never cover the lowest part of the GPU-Z gui. People look for that PhysX box to be un-checked. PhysX substantially enhances performance in Vantage. I've posted several examples here. You can plainly see the difference in my scores, with/without PhysX enabled.

Hope this helped.

EDIT:--- When I ran those benchmarks I used GPU-Z version 4.2 which did not support the GTX 460 card. Since then, I have acquired v4.4 which does provide support for the 460. I just posted the new version which is now reporting the proper information. Sorry about the inaccuracy of the original GPU-Z in the screenshots.

good idea though, come on guys, post your max 460 clocks, im curious what the average ocs are :)
900 is nice, what fanspeed and voltage? :)

I see nothing wrong with version 4.2. It was accepted and verified by HWBOT for team points.

I cannot see how a new version of GPU-Z could possibly make any difference in my scores, with the exception of the usual +/- about 200 points variance between runs. However, I see that that GPU-Z v4.4 has some added support, or compatibility for the GTX 460. Hmmm, that might be interesting. I'll download it, and make these runs again as soon as I have time, perhaps this weekend. It would be interesting to see if GPU-Z reports anything different in it's newer iteration.

Best my KFA GTX460 1GB does is 880/4400 GPU @ 1.1v. will get some results once KFA send me a new vBIOS that hopefully sorts out the bootup / restart issues.

I might consider one or two of those 01G-P3-1373-ER - 1GB EVGA GTX 460 SC, 3800MHz GDDR5, GPU 763MHz, ShaderClock 1526MHz, SLI would be the way to go due to the power consumption efficiency, no promises here, just keen on it.

No, it doesn't. Vantage is rediculously biased, which is why if you want any kind of accurate score you run Vantage with PhysX set to run on the CPU.

+1 ^ He's 100% correct. PVHK, you will find that in fact, HWBOT will not even accept your score as valid, unless they can verify that PhysX has been disabled, and it's function turned over to the CPU. I see a lot of guys getting all bent out of shape over this, and I don't understand why.

I intentionally posted 2 runs on my machine, with, and without, PhysX enabled, just to show how skewed the score becomes when the GPU has access to run PhysX.

Post your best run with PhysX disabled, and then you, and everyone else will recognize a valid score. Good Luck.:)

I can't help but question if PhysX is actually disabled, especially because you don't show the GPU-Z primary "Graphics Card" tab GUI.

Turning off PPU in Vantage will not completely disable PhysX which so many people believe. Prove it to yourself. Leave PPU enabled in Vantage. Now go into nVidia Control Panel and go into "Set SLI & PhysX Configuration". Now choose "CPU" from the "PhysX Settings" drop down menu. Now when you run Vantage and look at GPU-Z all the way down at the bottom, and you'll see the PhysX box un-checked. As long as that box is checked, you'll only be kidding yourself with your scores.

Look at my screenshot posts and you'll see what I mean.

I think PhysX is actually off in the second SS, his GPU score is very similar to what mine was ;) A GPU-Z in a screenshot would clear any doubts up though :D

Hey guys I just got my MSI GTX 460 1GB Cyclone Edition(long name) and was wondering how to test the overclocked settings stability? I know you use MSI Kombustor but what settings(res? AA?) and for how long?

current clocks
Voltage: I assume it's the default, since it doesn't say and won't allow me to change it
Core Clock: 865Mhz
Shader Clock: 1730Mhz ( glued to core clock, I can change it separately)
memory Clock: 2201Mhz
Fan Speed: 72%( pretty quiet for me, compared to my 4870)

it idles at 37c but raises to about 60-65 during CSS and SC2.

This looks good, but why doesn't it have a proper exhaust out of case?.

Several good looking coolers, with good fans and effective heat pipes has shown up, but I'm wondering why all of them insist on dumping the hot air inside the case.

I guess it's due to higher noise of turbine designs. I don't see how you can make a radial fan effective on low RPMs(to be quiet) and still have acceptable size.

Under full load via F@H. My top card is dying. Very close to breaking 100C w/ the top card. The cooling on the Zotac 1GB cards is rather poor. I need to buy waterblocks for these bad boys asap. My Gigabyte GTX460 768MB card will do the same clock easily enough as well. I just don't have room for the card until my motherboard gets back from RMA.

the memory will go a little higher but the core clock won't, even if i go up to 1.081V. I've already reapplied the thermal paste on the card.

I don't know why but even in reviews Zotac 1gb card was the hotest. The EE heatsink used by Evga and Zotac is worst than reference. And you have a problem with fans , you must flash a new bios to unlock them to 100%.
Two Gigabyte cards should have been a little better.

The problem for you most likely is the IHS itself. Do some research and pop that sucker off. From what I can tell the IHS will come off a'la A64 style, carefully use a razor around all sides, and dont let the blade go further in than about 3mm.

A lot of 460s don't seem to run 900MHz stable on stock voltage. Run Vantage and if you see coloured sparkly stars, its not stable.

I haven't had time to find the max stable O/C quite yet. Don't mind what Afterburner says, I thought I hit PrtScn but apparently I didn't. I hit reset on Afterburner but here are the clocks:

1.05v
855 core
1028 memory
EVGA 1gb superclocked EE

http://i33.tinypic.com/2hpkbhz.png

I was surprised at all the reviews saying this card runs hot, because mine doesn't :D.
It normally idles ~32C-35C when I'm not benching.

Does anyone know why I can go up to 1.212v in Afterburner? I thought the cap on these cards were 1.087v without modding the bios?

Its the same length as the ATI 5770, I managed to install them without having to remove my side fan. The first thing I noticed after installing them was 'damn, were my 5770s really that loud?'. These MSIs are super silent as are all my case fans, the only thing that makes a slight amount of noise now is my CPU cooler.

Hmmm, I installed everything from the CD first - Drivers and afterburner software, and the voltage tweak in afterburner was grayed out.

So I then uninstalled Afterburner and installed the latest version from MSI's website, 1.6.1 which says - 'Added NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 series and MSI N460GTX Cyclone series graphics cards support (including voltag control!)', but the voltage setting is still grayed out :(

They start to artifact at 900 Mhz,I think I need more voltage :(

BTW you really need to overclock your CPU.

update my score, change to others systems and flash the bios from another thread :

How did you overclock it that high? Mine wont go over 880 Mhz without artifacting, but I have two so they run a bit hotter.

Every GPU is different. Clock differences can be explained by manufacturing tweaks, some IHS being better applied than on other cards, people using more voltage, better cooling, etc.

What voltage was used for 970 core? I have 950 core stable @ 1.125v with no artifacts, but I'm having trouble going any further.

How can I use more than 1.087v without bios tweaking?

You can't. If you ask Nvspec he will probably give you a modded bios.

Hey guys well i just shoved 1 card in for now, im on air cooling with them. I just did a minor OC on the card, im at 875 mhz Voltage is 1.08 , i tried 900mhz but i get artifacts and i cant overvolt past 1.087. Hmmm anyways is this a decent score for minor OC on air with 1 card?

Hey Aedubber!!! I hope you are enjoying your little beasts!
It's a very nice score and the overclock capability is good as well!!! Post some SLI results now gogo!

p.s. nice wallpaper!Any links where I can find similar ones? :D

Mmmm... your all making it so tempting for me to take a knife to my GPU and remove that IHS..

LOL Ket i never removed the IHS or anything, just threw the single card in and called it a day :) , hey i tried that inspector and MSI but it wont let me over volt more then 1.087.. Do i gotta flash the BIOS?

LowriDer - Hey thanks man, ya i gotta wait for my stupid SLI bridge to come in since i accidently threw out the one that came with the MB lol..Placed the order with evga yesterday, ill have the bridge either sat or monday then ill post up SLI scores for sure!

Yep you have to flash a modded BIOS to get more than 1.087v.
