Gigabyte GTX 460 1 GB User Review

GIGABYTE GV-N460OC-1GI GeForce GTX 460 1GB 256-bit


Hello to all Xtreme Systems

I will try to share my experience with Gigabyte GTX 460 in this review..

Starting to speak card, It has Cuda 336 CUDA Cores which are clocks at 1430 MHz and the GPU 715 MHz as well.. the card is low level self overclocked.. It is good that they leave overclock to masters .. But Rams are still virgin untouched, and 256-bit bus speed of 3600MHz GDDR5, quite enough for such a card.. Card approximately 21 cm in length, a small case for those who are very good.. I'd like to share the pictures with the card, but I postponed it for now for your eyes health.. Lets Crank that ***** up lol..

A Quality 500W PSU should be enough for her..



About sound, the card is really very good .. certainly did not hear yet, I guess they forgot to put fans .. Two fans of the card above and to fulfill the office is very quiet .. In hot weather these days does not fall below 30 degrees, 69 degrees and above if we consider the 30% very well for overclocking ..

I hope that review will helpful for who decide to buy a new graphic card..

Thanks for the review. But, do you use a 1280x1024 monitor as 24/7 system for this GPU? I think it's a little bit overkill.
