OC3D Review EVGA GTX460 Sli Review

[alienware]

Then you have both completely missed the point of this review tbh.

480 = nuclear hot & fudging loud

470 = nuclear hot & fudging loud

460 = cool calm and collected.....

Oh absolutely. Why do you think I own Crossfire 5770 and not SLI 280 or triple 250GTS as I planned?

Quiet performance is great, but hot smoking blistering is fun (so long as *I* dont have to live with it)

That's why I sold one of the 3870x2 today haha. Other one's sold too to a mate, and Thuban here we come (when I get the Noctua).

soo true but then again you can get a gts 450 and put it in physx or you can combine it with a ati card if you have a mobo with lucid hydra chip

 

[stevenwright6379]

you could

if i had a bigger PSU then i would get one for phys-x heck if it was big enough i would get a third GTX460 for phys-x

hmm wonder if my 750w PSU could handle a 450 as well then :/

[stevenwright6379]

[thestepster]

just pay that tiny bit extra and get a reference 460 dont waste ur cash on the 450 its even more pointless than the 465
