Going to buy a GTX460 1GB for head to head review with HD5830 1GB

Title says it all. Who would be interested in the head to head review?

[sniper_sung]

Definitely yes!

[zanzabar]

it would be nice to see them both overclocked and using things that are not in the NV approved tests only

[Ket]

80-20 so far, you are both on course for getting your wish in about a week

[Johnny87au]

Yes definately, Already know the 460 will win lol, 2x 460s in SLI beats the 5970.. Already been tested but yes

[Ket]

My point in the head to head is to completely dispel any myths about both cards. Next to all of the reviews you read about the 5830 use VERY OLD beta drivers for the card, and they carry those results over and use them when reviewing other cards. I want to give a accurate representation of BOTH cards.

For the love of god yes!

I am looking to upgrade my gtx260 and I am not sure what to do. $200 seems ok for a card as I payed $250 for my previous card.

[Jowy Atreides]

I would, Ket!

Currently on the bench about the two cards and no immediate hurry to upgrade

[Ket]

Seems a pretty convincing yes As for tests to run, hows do you guys like the look of these;

Unigine: Heaven, Sanctuary, & Tropics (all DX11)
Vantage - DX10
Crysis Warhead - DX10
Stalker: COP - DX11
Stone Giant - DX11

I'm not sure if I should include the AvP bench as its as good as synthetic with both ATi and nVidia "optimising" their drivers for it, but not the actual AvP game.
