If you dont have heatSink on the Vreg, i recommand to add some if your running "high" volts.

Thats why i got a DirectCU, these have stock VRM sink. Even my incomming GTS450 have heatsink on the Vreg.

The 24/7 clocks for my three GTX460s. I can run furmark @ 980 core on all three but they always fail when doing F@H.

Woha lowfat, how do you manage to get those temps with that OC? Really amazing numbers!

Beside, isn't a GTX460 too much for Physx?

I use Koolance full cover blocks on them. First and foremost they are for folding@home. Gaming and PhysX is secondary.

For anyone using the Palit gtx460's, today I flashed to the latest bios from Palit and it fixed the issues with 260.63 Forceware, no more freezing or weird screen colors. Also FPS in BC2 are much better, at 1080res 8xAA 16xAF max settings I am getting anywhere from 92-105 fps most of the game, saw 80's once in one map but only in a couple spots and very briefly, 130's-150'smax in other spots in the map.

Thanks Kimo for the tip.

**LoWRiDeR** · 09-21-2010, 06:56 AM

Hey OC Nub, thanks for the news. I couldn't find the bios you are saying..is it compatible with sonic platinum version as well? Could you link it?

Dunno, but I can knock that 1.087 cap off your bios if you want. If so post it..

**cowie** · 09-21-2010, 04:57 PM

I believe Gainward also had a bios update yesterday to fix any issues. Voltage cap is still 1.087.
