MSI GTX 460 HAWK can reach 1Ghz mark :O

**Johnny87au** · 08-08-2010, 07:26 PM

Hardly no 460's can reach 1 ghz, just a good card i guess..

then ati would be 5ghz if u count scaller units, and then an i7 would also run double from HT so we should have 8ghz+ overclocking.

im not up on the clocking but u cannot change the voltage yet right

**Johnny87au** · 08-08-2010, 07:50 PM

Umm as far as im aware, only on the evga cards with a new bios..

Most 460's can change voltage via software right now and I think that's been possible since launch.

There is a quite large thread in the NVIDIA section on this very forum in which we post our GTX 460 OC's(http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=256635). 900 MHZ and above isn't really that rare AFAIK.

Just saying

Sexy MSI HAWK card again

Probably found the replacement for my 5770 Hawks.

Depends on the Vregs...

the shader clock is from NV running 2 operations per shader per clock, if u look at it like that then its like 2 scaller units. ati has 5 scaller units as each shader dose 5 operations per clock. so if u had both at 1ghz ati would be like 5ghz but instead of a shader clock they count each shader 5 times. the shaders dont work the same way and they take commands and cashe differently and im oversimplifying so im not saying that they are the same, just that the shader clock and somewhat the core clock dont matter when comparing other than the core clock % to % for overclock.

i'm sure with air cooling , getting at 1Ghz is impossible,they should use Ice or Water Cooler,1 Ghz requiring Very tough VRM.

Look here Maximum is 880 Mhz :

or

http://www.guru3d.com/article/msi-ge...1024-review/19

Who says that 900 Mhz is Normal ???

**RPGWiZaRD** · 08-09-2010, 02:38 AM

I'm sure 1GHz is possible with bit voltage boost looking how well it responds to even the small voltage boost u can do with today's GTX 460 bioses. Looks like they on purpose limited voltage for some reason, probably to be able to squeesh more cash out of super overclocked editions like this due to a higher voltage.

A reviewer friend of mine has one for review and told me they're only clocked at 780MHz

**~~Baron_Davis~~** · 09-01-2010, 08:45 AM

Linus unboxing!

That means NCIX is getting it soon

<3 NCIX

EDIT: WOW it looks savage...

wow, and the Colorful iGame 460 comes at 900MHz stock...

**Florinmocanu** · 09-01-2010, 09:10 AM

780 stock maybe. the 1k Ghz is user overclock i assume, not factory OC.

Yep, the card is made to OC like a monster. Who cares about stock!

**RAGNAROKUN** · 09-01-2010, 10:12 AM

igame and this maybe can hit 1ghz and more...but how much more??...that is the question...

**Hazzan** · 09-01-2010, 10:54 AM

1000/1200 easy with this card....default Core 780/900

**bamtan2** · 09-01-2010, 12:50 PM

the msi frozr is the best overall video card cooler ever. long line of successes using that type of cooler. so it is no surprise it performs well.

what is a surprise is that the new board design does 1ghz core without any work or extra voltage or special gpu selection. that is, if this is all true. it may not be. they may be hand selected chips. it may come with higher voltage. etc

this. hand selected chips, beefy vrm, voltage bumb... OVERCLOCK!

**cowie** · 09-01-2010, 02:38 PM

I think MSI is sacking off a bit tbh,what no pre-installed hardmods?

**RAGNAROKUN** · 09-01-2010, 03:22 PM

tomorrow full review in guru3d
http://www.guru3d.com/news/msi-gtx-4...released-soon/

they added voltage control for the memory and Auxilary/PLL voltage as well

Auxilary/PLL voltage...???

His can only do around 900MHz
