So has anyone bought one of their cards? More specifically a GTX460 xlr8 1GB card.

I am on a budget and this card is 30€ cheaper then the nearest{EVGA} card, if they are a junk company then i will muster the extra 30€ but if they are a good preformer i would rather save that cash {this money im spending was ment for a 2500k build but my GPU has died }. Im not looking to o/c the card i just need it to do what it should!

All help welcome!

I bought PNY, not GTX 460s, but they where good cards. I never had to deal with their support because I never had an issue with the cards so I can't commend on that. You should be fine.

PNY are IIRC always reference-cards, so if you go for

liquid cooling - take it!

I have had a lot graphic cards in past. From EVGA to

MSI to ASUS and even to PNY. The PNY cards where the

only ones I never had to deal with support. So I'd say

they are kind of a robust construction.

To come to a conclusion I really recommend PNY cards.

I have had the best experiences with them, they OC

really good, are reference-designed so quite perfect

for liquid cooling and: PNY is the one and only

manufacturer chosen by NVidia which builds the

Quadro and Tesla-series. And these are really much more

stability-related than our consumer-electronic-GFX :-)

seen a couple of videos on youtube where people have said how much they like them

i had a PNY 8400GS many years ago what was good and still going strong

so overall i would have to say they are good
