GTX 460 1GB OC database

Demon meand turn tessellation on in Heaven and compare your GTX460 results with 470 results with tessellation on

All right..

My card tonight is not stable to run 930 core - perhaps it´s the hot weather or because of tessellation on. Anyway here is a result when overclocked to 926/1852/2340 - the same settings as before. I am sorry, but I am unable to get into that review Hardwarecanucks did on the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 OC Edition. Whenever I try to load a page, I get thrown back to page 2. Could someone tell me if that is only me and my browser or if the website is currently having some maintanence? If it is only me - could someone post a picture of the Gigabyte score - same settings as mine? Here is the link to that review: http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum...on-review.html

Here is the picture of my Unigine score with tessellation on normal.

Not bad at all. AFAIK thats hanging in there with a lot of 470s that have a mild OC.

ED - Yep right on the money. Minimum FPS is 20 for a stock GTX470, average is 29FPS. According to canucks.

[Grnkjr0]

Well how about this demonkevy666 - satisfied? It is still faster than the Gigabyte GTX470 OC Edition. Now I can not wait to see if that other card I ordered will perform the same.

Man seriously... do you read carefully or what...? maybe im overly thorough... hoping he may got some enlightment somehow.. but your post reveals what i was afraid of... he finaly succeded to mislead the ppl(and you) as i initially posted... what 25% are you talking...? he masked his BS argument behind the instantaneous drops out of minimum fps... which most of the time (unless as i said again b4 is CPU inefficiency) happen due to HDD activity... at 1st loop (and sometimes even at 2nd loop - that's why crysis bench if you want to make accurate comparisons you run it 3 times least.).
PS1> you talk about average FPS and in fact is MINIMUM...
PS2> average fps dif.. is (33.3-32.13)/32.13=....~+3.6%... if you interpet that as a PRETY BIG Increase... then im Galileo confessing.. "Earth Doesnt rotate"
PS3> as for your quote at post 24... i really wonder.. who got pwned again...
PS4> There is still hope... by not replying.. that he finally admitted (even to himself only..) he got wrong this time..

To the average eye and screenshot - his maths add and equal to his proclaims - thus - he is not wrong in what he is saying - I talk in averages about his figures - not the result.

The maths and quote of "25%" is correct, albeit in reality, a small increase. 25% of 1 card is NOT the same as 25% of the other. Where 25% of the 460 may only equate to 1% difference from that of a 470.

ie. 25% of 100 isn't the same as that of 25% of 50, but it's stil 25% of the original factor

So anyways on a flipside lads and gents , my GIGABYTE 1gb cards are coming in, yes i said cards meaning SLI hehe , gonna get them setup in the new rig on air this weekend.. Will run some benches and post up what i can thats stable .

[Ket]

Looking forward to seeing what those cards can do Got my Asrock 890FX Deluxe3 in the post today so I'm probably going to be taking apart the "old" system in prep for the arrival of the 955BE and G-Skill Ripjaws. Can't wait to have it all running so I can actually use my 460 problem free

Hi guys, I was wondering: does anybody have any clue how to use afterburner Voltage modification with a Gainward GTX460 GLH? It seems the non-reference design doesn't go along with afterburner, It cannot read the voltage neither can it change it :/

Guys I want your help in order to mod the card and manage to go at 1.1 vcore, and change heatsink which I think sucks major a$$. Is there any good compatible heatsink out there for our cards? I've ever changed a gpu bios so any help/guide will be well appreciated (is it very risky?? :P). Would adding heatsinks on rams/regulators do any good?

p.s. what's up with papaTROLLis?

[Ket]

You have PM and people, please remember to mind your fingers when feeding the troll

[Grnkjr0]

To Ket

Could you post a step by step guide on how to mod the card allowing higher voltage - please? I have read somewhere on how to do it, but I thought at the time it looked a bit complicated, but I would very much like to try it out.

Hmmmm speaking of memory Ket u reminded me my next item to order .. Gskill as well but the timings are 6-7-6 @ 2000

I use FBE to make changes to Fermi BIOSes. Let me know what you want done and I'll do it for you

Hmmmm speaking of memory Ket u reminded me my next item to order .. Gskill as well but the timings are 6-7-6 @ 2000

Ditto getting some 1600 Ripjaws here, that if I'm lucky, MIGHT do 2000 @ 8-8-8. Which is fine by me

I'm coming over to the dark side =D

I ordered myself a pair of 1 Gb Msi Cyclones, they are despatched and should be here tomorrow .

[Ket]

Welcome to the darkside

[Aedubber]

Muahhahhahahahah welkommen to the evil side !!!

[Mungri]

They will be my first Nvidia cards since my 6800 SLI, I've had an ATI X1900, 3850 Xfire, 4850 Xfire, 4870 Xfire, and 5770 Xfire since then :p

I really didnt want to pay more than £150 per card ever again since my X1900, and the 4870s were terrible and too hot so I only wanted cool running ones after that, but the Cyclone GTX 460s were too good to resist with great cooling too. and I still have my UD5 mobo and 5770s to get rid of, hoping to make back what I just paid for those two.

I had to choose between the Gigabytes at £176, and the MSIs at £186:

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/1GB-G...s-DL-DVI-mHDMI

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/1GB-M...2x-DVI-I-mHDMI

Both those prices are good for these cards, and they both have the best cooling and build quality available. I went with the MSI because they look nicer, and I've wanted to try MSI cards for ages. Gigabyte ones are also really good, but the Blue PCB would clash horribly with my R3E :p.

attempted ihs removal. Glue is extremely strong compared to intel ihs. I couldn't get it off with the knife.

MSI Afterburner/Settings/Unlock voltage with restart MSI Afterburner or Nvidia Inspector by default.

[Aedubber]

So looky looky what dropped in today !!! HEHE cant wait to get the bad boys up and running

[LoWRiDeR]

Awesome Aedubber! You are SLing then? Post some results of SLI and what's the highest stable oc you reached good luck

[Aedubber]

Will do chief! Gonna be this weekend tho, cuz i gotta transfer all my current setup into the new rig, run all the water cooling lines etc.. Cards are staying on air tho :P

[LoWRiDeR]

Cool, i'm done with watercooling :P I had watercooling, then wc with tec, then phase change, too much fuzz! Air is fine and less expensive :P I'm waiting for the MSI HAWX to get it and SLI it with my palit. Need some first hand experiences though first!

Thanks for that! I already found Nvidia Inspector but I prefer afterburner for the burning utility
