| 1118401 | 2010-07-13 03:02:00 | Nvidia have just released the new GTX 460, based on a new GPU, the GF104. Whether it's game changing or not will depend on how it's priced here. Looks to change things in price ranges where most of us live though. OC'd performance almost to 5850 at 5830 prices. Here's Anandtech's analysis of it. Let the flamewar begin! (www.anandtech.com) |

| 1118402 | 2010-07-13 03:21:00 | Right. I'll start then shall I? Why do we even care?

| 1118405 | 2010-07-13 05:26:00 | www.elitebastards.com Yes. Based on the same Fermi architecture that powers their high-end GeForce GTX 480 model, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 delivers mid-range performance for gamers on a budget. |

| 1118406 | 2010-07-13 07:53:00 | For $370 I would get a second hand 5850. Failing that then a GTX460 will suffice I guess. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 1118407 | 2010-07-13 21:42:00 | About time is all I can say. My 9600GT is struggling with newer games and I need a replacement. It does look like a nice card and the reference cooler is a decent one for a change. |

| 1118408 | 2010-07-13 23:40:00 | Right. I'll start then shall I? Why do we even care? It's not the fastest but it's based on an updated GF104 design which may result in all GTX400 series becoming GF104 based, and better things all round. |

| 1118410 | 2010-07-15 23:08:00 | My Geforce 8800 GTS 512mb still runs my games for me. :) What the 'modern' equivalent to a 8800 GT/GTS, speed wise ?? just curious (getting annoyed with vid fan noise on my 8800) I know that often the new mid-level versions arent much faster at all (eg 8xxx to 9xxx to 2xx etc) sometimes having the same chip? |
