I have a GTX465 sitting here and although it's a great card, it's power consumption is horrible comparatively speaking.
So in the sense compared, I would also compare it to a HD5830 to get the price in par.
But you do pickup physx for what it's worth and Cuda if you use anything that supports that.
but why the 768mb version of the GTX460 and not the 1GB?

Thanks guys. Forget about the GTX460 768mb, IM looking at the 1GB model now Does anyone know how well it runs at 1920 x 1080?
Or is 1440 x 900 still ok for gaming? (I ask this because Ive been offered a cheap 19" widescreen ViewSonic LED LCD monitor with a 2ms response time, but the max res is 1440 x 900)

I have a 1440x900 monitor and it's great for gaming, but i would still rather get a 1080p monitor(probably because im running 2x GTX 470's). If it's really cheap, then go for it, but if you'd rather have a more clear and crisp display, then I'd personally go for a monitor with a higher res.
1440x900 is fine, though a GTX 1gb would run 1080p no problem, and look a tad nicer tho I find the ability to be able to turn the gfx settings and AA up better than upping the res imo. GTX 460 1gb all the way, thats my next planned upgrade!

yea i agree bout the HD 5770 bracket, i feel that the GTX 460 is low-high end. whereas HD 5770 is the highest-mainstream part. Close but not quite.

Push to 80 and you can get 1680x1050 22 inch of many sites on the web.
And often second hand on ebay : ]
70 is way to much to ask.

In the United Kingdom with only £20 seperating the pricing, the GTX460 is the better buy - its a fair bit faster too.
