    Guys,just wanted to say if you have a MCW60 swiftech block and a GT200 plate for it , you can drill new holes on it,to mount on a reference GTX 460 Measure carefully and be very cautious not to over tighten,just tighten enough to hold it in place ,again it is very important not to over tighten.

    why even bother get FC for 460. with added block price you can get a 470 or 5870. if you just want cool and quiet, the 460 already cool and quiet.

    The MSI Hawk has a sweet stock heatsink that I'd almost never take off...
    Signatures make my posts look huge... but I'm not humble enough to completely remove my signature, so I kept this note explaining it.

    I just received my EK FC-GTX460 yesterday:





    A 90º Rotatory and an EK Compression Fitting will be his friends.

    I will put it on a MSI Cyclone OC GTX460 1gb:

    So we can clock it higher and not have it run @ 90C. Try having three GTX460's side by side. I had huge issues keeping my cards below 95C.

    right, $240 for 460 +$100 for block each x3 $1k+. $1k get you 2 480 + 2 waterblock for 480, still has better performance than 460, you can also oc 480. i guess i don't see the benefit of a waterblock thats half price of the actual video card.

    And I can get 36k PPD (3 x GTX460) vs 30k PPD (2 * GTX480) for folding@home. GTX460's aren't even tri-SLI'able.
