Geforce GTX460: Overclocking and 3DMark results

[[XC] hipno650]

The 8800GT was comparable to the 8800GTX clock for clock; we're not seeing anything close in that regard, this chip in no way has clock parity between it and the GTX480.

I'm sorry man but you have obviously never owned both cards. I have a pair of 8800gtx's and a 8800gt and at stock the 8800gtx is a solid 15% faster when you match the clock speed the 8800gtx is about 20% (or more faster). Even with ocing the 8800gt was never as fast as the 8800gtx not to mention the mem difference because lets face it 512mb just does not cut it (unless you game at 1280x1024) were as 768mb can still hold it down at anything around 1680x1050. I see what you are getting at though, the 8800gt was a sweet card for the money, heck thats why I bought one. but it was never a 8800gtx.

I think that the GTX 460 1GB will be great card if they price it like they did the 8800gt at around the 200-250 range. the card is a little faster then the GTX 465 at stock and will OC to a stock (or slightly oced) GTX 470 for 100-150 dollars less. Thats a sweet deal. and WAY better than the 5830 which is what it is competing against.

i am a little curious as to why they are coming out with this new card so soon considering it makes the GTX 465 total garbage.

200$ would be pretty good, more than 225$ feels like they arnt trying to make ATI do any real price cutting

and the 465 was a garbage 480 anyway, any return from those is a good return.

they aren't. companies win when they make money, not when their competition loses money.

GTX 460 overclocking

Well, this time to blast results, GTX460 exposure overclocking results!

Last is to help a friend sent photos of a GTX460's true identity, did not expect a lot of media outlets. The deep sea is also a friend in Europe sent a GTX460 overclocked to run after the sub-graph

Looks like there still no news, I start clicking

GPU-Z is not updated, can not recognize part of the information, but after overclocking frequency Daoshi of recognition, and picture messages absolute fidelity

Ask him to download GPU-Z 0.4.4

Graphics segment is in a total mess both sides, thats why I've decided to wait until gen 2 (even 3 if its needed) of DX11 hardware.

^
indeed these are first gen Dx11 cards and have a lot of old DX10 technology inside them.
new architectures for DX11 should performance better.

impatient much?

Well, he waited 9 months for it.

According to DonanimHaber, GTX 460 192-bit version is 200$ and 256-bit 230$.

[Vardant]

That's lower than the MSRP of 8800GT IIRC. And apparently it overclocks like crazy too.

well look what we have here (nana2)

East Asia has already demonstrated the graphics chip was a GTX-460 test card (768 MB, 192 bit) without increasing the core voltage with 830 MHz still stable, with a slight voltage boost 900 MHz were even possible. This brought the map around 8000 points (3DMark Vantage Extreme), outperforming even a 300 € expensive GeForce GTX 470 . The latter will create about 7650 points.

According to DonanimHaber, GTX 460 192-bit version is 200$ and 256-bit 230$.

That would make more sense to consumers. I don't think nvidia brings much profit from these cards at those prices tho.

And how is it "messed" up?

[Dimitriman]

So... GTX460:

A) WASSUP!
B) ICH DON'T THINK SO!

^^ 224 shaders and 24 rops seems gpu-z screwed

[Olivon]

GTX 460 768 Mo listed at Geizhals. First price : 206€

A friend of mine in HK who work in a NVidia partner corporation told me :

GTX460 DDR5 1024MB 256bit 229.00$
GTX460 DDR5 768MB 192bit 195.00$

[mAJORD]

We want benches.


The existance of a 768MB/192bit version still puzzles me

There will be two GTX 460s

I'd call the 256bit/1gb version GTX460 and the 192bit/768mb version GTS460

[Ket]

And how is it "messed" up?

DX11 performance is poor to average at best nomatter the card. As always with every new generation the new technology is merely introduced, it doesn't start really performing until the 2nd generation.

historically that isn't how it works. the different titles are used to represent something important, and extra memory chips don't count.

So 1 having 256bit membus and the other having a 192 isnt important? Id say that is a big enough diffrence for them having diffrent titles.

And diffrent titles dont always mean an important diffrence. The Geforce 6800GT and 6800Ultra where the same thing except for the Ultra having higher clocks.

[Manicdan]

historically, what has nvidia done with gpus that are identical except ram, or has that not happened yet and so we cant assume anything

Wasnt the default 7800GTX 256MB? And the faster clocked 512MB (with that big cooler) was called the 7800GTX512 and the only diffrence was more ram and higher clockspeeds?
But like said with these 460 there is more diffrence then just the ram the membus is wider.
