    Overclock this card to see its true potential

    Good bundle, priced well, full sized HDMI and DP connectors, good performance once overclocked

    Noisy fan under load, not a whole lot faster than the 768MB ver, memory chips aren't actively cooled

After a long wait we finally have a 1GB version of Nvidia's GTX460 to put it through the grind. For all those who aren't in the loop and are wondering why a little more memory is so important here's the explanation. Unlike most previous cards, Nvidia has changed more than just the amount of memory on each card; they've also cut down the memory bus-width and the number of raster operation units (ROPs) on the 768MB version.



ZOTAC has sent us the standard edition GTX460 that comes with the reference clock speeds mentioned above. The packaging is the same as before, no real change here. The 1GB version does come with a game bundle though.



Bundle



  • Installation manual
  • Driver CD
  • DVI to VGA adapter
  • Two 6-pin to Molex power adapters
  • Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands full game
