Runs smoothly and quietly. I haven't completed any temp specs, but my Computer hasn't crashed from overheat concerns but so it seems to run at a good temperature. Runs Civ V at max settings and created my other favorites like Garry's Mod and ARMA II run smoother and appear Considerably superior. Only two nit-picky issues. The PCI-E power adapter is a bit poorly produced. I had to re-align two of the pins prior to installing it into the card. The other factor is that when attempting to install the card on XP, it seemed to be arguing with the on-board video at initial. Simple fix with the disk drivers even though. Newegg and UPS is amazing with shipping. Got three day (not rush) on the 21st and received the card on the 23rd. Epic. Please note that my review may possibly be a bit exaggerated considering that my previous card was an 8600GT. It's nonetheless an amazing card, but I don't know how it ranks up with the other folks on the market.

Overclocks to 800Mhz core, and 2000Mhz memory no difficulty. Quite quiet, a breeze to install, is very cool and displays a Lovely image. Purchased it locally, so had to spend taxes, due to the fact Newegg.com didn't have the best value. Trade a Gigabyte HD 6850 1Gb card for this 1, was tired of the buggy Catalyst drivers. I don't regret the choice a single bit, eventhough I had employed an ATi/AMD gpu for 8 straight years.

Comment:
Unbeatable for cost and overall performance. Comes overclocked, and runs all my games at max settings (crysis integrated), so I'm not going to void the warranty however. Runs nice and cool, 67 in furmark, low 40's idle. Quiet, fan by no means rev's up. Not significantly here. There really isn't something to pick about. Get it!

Comment:
Overall performance None I bought 2 of these, one from BBY, and one particular from here. THe 1 from BBY died after two months so I exchanged it out. In the 6+ months considering that both cards have worked excellent in SLi

See previous assessment See previous evaluation Got my rebate right now. Purchased my card on 28Dec2010, rebate check received on 31Jan2011. Great card and a single of the quickest rebate waits/claims I've ever been by means of - now to get the ๥ from all my other rebates I sent in four weeks just before this 1.....

Excellent value! It was sold out on Newegg so i purchased it at Best Buy for the identical sale cost of 赓.99 I had a 4870X2 water cooled that died on me immediately after 2 years, and WOW this cards stats when benchmarking offers me the identical FPS on crysis, counter strike source, and 3D Mark Vantage. Fan is extremely quiet. Running almost everything at 1920x1080 with out a glitch. Sound operates perfectly by means of the HDMI cable Not genuinely a con against the card just the CD that came with it. Software program that came with it wouldnt start off so i had to manually download the PNY computer software and Vista automatically downloaded all the drivers for this card. I will be obtaining yet another card to use for a physics card soon after the new year.Asus P6T DeluxeCore i7 920 @ three.66 ghz watercooledsix gigs corsair xms3PNY GTX 460Thermaltake hard power 850 Watts1 terabyte Seagate HDDVista Ultimate 64 bit23 inch acer 1080p monitor using HDMI port

Good card, excellent price tag Beware, this card no longer ships with the copper base reference cooler pictured here. Now has an less expensive aluminum base cooler. Note to PNY: If you materially modify the solution you really should change the aspect number. I know Zotac did when they went to the less expensive cooler.

Comment:
Rapidly, beautiful, comes with all the bells and whistles. One particular of the least expensive 460s exactly where you don't require to be concerned about regardless of whether or not skimping will hurt you. Even comes with mini-HD and DVI->VGA adapters. So quiet I neglect how a lot energy it essentially has. None. I was slightly hesitant receiving a 460, but this "overclocked" version performs amazingly.

Comment:
Purchased two of em and i can inform these cards are incredible.. I play blackops and settings were set on MAX.. no challenges at all it deal with all my games that requires lot of graphics. No . not at all Newegg is the finest so is the PNY for lifetime warranty for this card!

Comment:
This card was quick to set up and setup on the computer system. I am in a position to play all of my games at the highest resolution and still get 50 FPS. The fan is exceptionally quiet which is usually a perfect issue. It requires two power connections, but is only shipped with one particular. Thankfully, I had a energy supply that had two available, or I would not have been able to get pleasure from my card the evening I received it. I have not tried to download the game that came with it because of the troubles other people have reported.

Upgraded from an 8800 GTS and there is a significant increase to FPS in all of the games I play. Granted, I don't play the most intense games, but WOW went from 20 FPS in Dalaran on medium settings to 60 FPS on High. The new 'max' settings on WOW referred to as 'ultra' place me at an acceptable, but not over-the-prime 30 fps. I'm certain mileage will differ depending on where you are in the game.I went back and completed COD4 (I quit when it stuttered with my 8800). No troubles at all.Empire Total War is smooth on max settings.Civilization 5 would not run on an 8800 but is smooth with this card. Temps are low and it isn't loud. I use it proper out of the box, no overclocking. This card utilizes TWO six pin power connectors. There are ZERO included in the box. Instead they give you a "y" shaped cable that turns TWO four pin connectors into a 6 pin. Properly that wasn't optimal considering that I don't have any spare four pin connectors. My power provide has two six pin connectors and I was in a position to use my old one particular (the 8800 GTS needed a 6 pin) and I was able to scrounge a spare 6 pin cable in an old power supply box, but just before you get this make confident that you have an sufficient power supply, and adequate cabling to get it hooked up. Came with HAWK2 which actually was a piece of paper with directions on how to do a cost-free download from NVIDIA.

Worked beautifully for two months. Now I randomly lose video when the card is under load. The fans nevertheless spin, and my PSU checks out fine. The old card I place in to test with hasn't replicated this, even under intense load. RMA to PNY did absolutely nothing but get me my old card back with the identical challenge. I'm not going to be content if I finish up consuming 赔 because of this. I went through the RMA approach with PNY, only to randomly discover my old card on my porch tonight, with no call or e-mail from them telling me what they did. All I got with it was a note that stated "Passed Test". Sure adequate, I popped it in, fired up a game to test it, and lost video a minute in. I got on the telephone with tech support right after that, only to be told that since it passed, they have no obligation to me. When I asked to talk to somebody else to see exactly where I could go from there, I got transferred straight to a voicemail with no warning. Seriously? That's professional. I had to contact back to locate out the supervisor was gone for the day, but it would have been nice to know. I'll be giving him a call tomorrow, but so far I am genuinely not delighted with this predicament. Hopefully I can at least get my dollars back.

Idles at 95^ F Runs current dx11 games at avg 50 fps at 140^F max. Once I downloaded nvidia's overall performance tools I turned up the fan to 100% dropping temps ten to 20 degrees on load. Extremely pleased with PNY's lifetime warrenty can't comment on Customer help as of however. Only con I can believe of as of now is that 3 way sli is not supported which is not a con really just a factor to look at when buying. Q6700 2.66 Ghz Core two8 gig 800 mhz xfx ram780i xfx nforce MBp.s. I will be operating SLI as benchmarks show two of these out perform the 480 for a tiny much less money

Pack a good punch. Certainly was an upgrade from my GTS 250. Can run alot of games that were on med/low with the GTS 250 at higher on most games with the GTX 460. Don't know if I got some wierd pre-tested card or something, but the cards I received (I bought 2) had scratches and wearing on both the plastic components and the stickers. Mildly concerned that they aren't new cards. Could possibly be the packaging, but I somehow doubt it as the cards don't move at all inside the packaging itself.

Comment:
The card fit fine in my case and it runs nice and quiet. I can play Starcraft II on Ultra and Command and Conquer 4 and WoW on max video settings. My CPU and memory aren't anything particular so I'm glad the card can manage the load itself. None I tried installing the drivers straight from Nvidia's internet site and that didn't work out so properly. The efficiency wasn't very good and some issues had been unstable. I then installed from the CD and every little thing's been great!

Comment:
It's quiet, smaller sized and far more effective then my old GTX 260, already overclocked sufficient for me, lifetime warranty, works like a charm and the price was correct. None for me. You know, I usually avoided PNY, but this item appears up to par with just about every other vendor. Glad I gave them a shot.BFG RIP

Comment:
I have two of these in SLI. Maybe a waste @ 1920x1080 but I have anything turned up and they don't break a sweat. None however...

Smaller compared to my old 4870 Stays cool and quiet even right after hours of gaming None Upgraded to this card to run DX11 on WOW. It only runs slightly better than HD 4870.࿈-50FPS) compared to ྾-40FPS) with the HD4870 in SW at peak occasions ultra settings shadows on high
