Need help fast GTX 460 or 465

[Deleted member 362816]

They are the same price for the 1gb 465's and the 1gb 460's

what is the better card is the difference between them

For all the challenged people recommending he gets an MSI card. TIGER DOES NOT HAVE THEM. Read the post people, he gets a 25% discount there.

1. The EVGA card overclocks just as well as any of them.

2. It is a bit louder than the MSI but it also exhausts heat from the case.

3. EVGA precision does not allow voltage tweaks except for a few cards that support it. The new Overclock Scanner for 4xx series cards does though. You can always use Afterburner with the EVGA cards.

4. EVGA has a lifetime warranty that includes taking the heatsink off and overclocking.

5. EVGA has a 90 day step up program and will credit full retail price to a new card in that time.

why does the memory interface on the super over-clocked ones change from 256 to 192

There are two different versions of the GTX 460. One has 768mb of ram and a 192-bit bus for $200. The other is 1gb/256-bit and goes for $230. The general performance difference between the two is 7-8%.

The super overcloked 1gb Evga and galaxy are 192 -bit bus explane that

Sadly i can get a new 465 right now for 160$ should i go with that or spend more to get a 460. im sure i can flash 470 bios to the 465

That is just a typo. Here are the same cards with the same product numbers on newegg listed with their correct bus width;

As I've said earlier though it is just a waste of money to pay someone else to OC your video card to levels well below what it can handle.

gtx 460 is really in demand more than gtx 465......and if waiting can get you a gtx 460 than it is worthy to wait for some time rather than choosing the gtx 465 and then not getting the expected performance...

How many of these threads are you going to make ?
Flip a coin if you can't make a decision. lol

If you can get the 465 for $160, why not? Don't you have a thread with like 10938123 answers for this already?

the answer i have been getting are not very solid it seems like most people that are answering on this section of the fourm dont seem to know to much about the 460 but yet they still post. simple question accroding to benchmarks the 465 is better at stock then the 460. i know that you can overclock the crap out of the 460's but i have been told that if you flash a 465 with 470 bios it will kick the crap out of a OC'd 460 this true or not?

What is the max over-clock on this card with out burning it up?

A good OC on these cards once you raise the voltage tends to be around 900mhz. The HD5850 is a better card by any reasonable standard and it is also one of the few cards that can actually OC even better than the GTX 460.
