[ Test: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat, World in Conflict ]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat saw the Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) deliver an average of 37fps at 1920x1200, making it 23% faster than the Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 (768MB). However it was also 12% slower than the Palit GTX 460 Sonic Platinum (1GB), despite beating the Radeon HD 5850. Finally we have World in Conflict Soviet Assault, and with an average of 47fps, the Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) was 21% faster than the Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 (768MB), while it was also 8% slower than the Palit GTX 460 Sonic Platinum (1GB). That said, the Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) once again beat the Radeon HD 5850.

Posted on: 08/11/2010 01:02 PM That's a good looking card with a nice price tag. I was thinking of pulling the trigger on one of these and the review has made it all the more tempting, thanks :S

Posted on: 08/15/2010 11:43 PM I like how they have used dual fans. The load temps are really low.

Posted on: 08/21/2010 05:23 PM Would this card overclock better ,with a superior thermal compound ?

ProX	Posted on: 08/22/2010 10:32 PM Very cool looking card for the money. @ userdude - Maybe but it ran pretty cool as it was. Chances are they got an average overclocking card. What would really improve overclocking is a voltage mod

Posted on: 09/08/2010 11:15 PM When I use your overclocking numbers I get a Driver error when running 3D Mark Vantage? So I'm back on 800/1600/1900 Please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Already have the latest drivers...

Lee	Posted on: 09/14/2010 09:42 AM This looks much more impressive than those new GTS 450 cards. So whats your take, the 768MB of 1024MB version?
