[ Test: Just Cause 2, Crysis Warhead ]

The Just Cause 2 results are much like those seen in the games already tested with. The Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) was found to be 16% faster than the Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 (768MB), while it was also 15% slower than the heavily overclocked Palit GTX 460 Sonic Platinum (1GB). As we have also seen a number of times, the GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) was able to beat even the Radeon HD 5850, and this was again the case when testing with Just Cause 2.

The Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) rendered an average of 32fps when testing with Crysis Warhead, making it as fast as the Asus Radeon HD 5830. However the GV-N460OC-1GI (1GB) was also just 7% or 2fps faster than the Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 (768MB), while it trailed the Palit GTX 460 Sonic Platinum (1GB) by a 14% margin.

I got a pair of these in SLI and they are faster than my friends GTX 480 and they cost less. Very pleased!!!

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

I like how they have used dual fans. The load temps are really low.

Would this card overclock better ,with a superior thermal compound ?

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 :D

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...

This looks much more impressive than those new GTS 450 cards. So whats your take, the 768MB of 1024MB version?

Hey everyone. Anyone know of problems with these cards because newegg has a lot of spammers saying these cards are horrible and only last for a few weeks then crap out? Please post. :)
