NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 becomes favorite midrange graphics card

It’s rare to come across a universally lauded product nowadays, but NVIDIA’s fresh new GTX 460 is just that sort of exceptional creation. Contrary to its GTX 465 elder brother, the 460 isn’t a chopped-down top-tier part and is instead built on the new GF104 core. This smaller core, designed from the start to perform humbler functions, has ameliorated the famed power inefficiency that has been a Fermi signature so far, and has resulted in AnandTech describing the new card as “the $200 king.” You’ll get 768MB of onboard RAM at that point, but we’d splurge an extra $30 to make that a round gigabyte and enjoy some extra L2 cache and ROPs on the card. Either way, the GTX 460 seems to have completely killed off the market for the 465 and is stepping all over ATI’s toes with its competitive pricing and, for once, decent heat and power metrics. Oh, and apparently it “overclocks like a monster” too.Do check out some links below and read some reviews on this mid range card.
