"faster" is not quantitative.

Faster by X compared to Y is much more informative than "it's faster".

Mini bench/reviews by 'non-professionals/average users' (no offence wolf) can sometimes be just as valid as 'proper' benchmark/review sites.

This could be be useful for someone who has an older card like the 460 and is wondering if an upgrade to a 570 is actually worth it.

hit the nail on the head, it's about quantifying the difference between these two cards. and no offense taken, I am your average user/enthusiast, by no means pro.

It should have been GTX460 v/s GTX560 not this

Buy the OP a 560 if you want to see a direct comparison.

I considered buying a GTX560Ti but it wasn't a big enough upgrade from a 460 IMO, and I'll gladly accept a 560 Ti for testing purposes :p

I didnt buy a GTX570 just to do the mini review, I bought it to upgrade :) and did the mini review to show what that upgrade got me.

GTX 460 is such a nice card imo! :) get two of these and your set!

but you gotta love and respect the power of a single card :) GTX 570 FTW :p

two GTX460's are hella sweet man, especially if you can clock them up over 800 core each, but yeah a single GTX570 is naturally one beast of a card.

thanks for the feedback guys!

thanks

Thanks for posting the review. I have a GTX460 and I wanted to know exactly how much better a GTX570 is, to help me decide if I should buy one. Obviously I know it's better, but now you've told me by how much, which is just precisely what I needed! Thanks :)

Just goes to show how legendary the GTX 460 is LOL I mean when OCed the GTX 460 comes within spitting distance of a stock GTX 570 that's amazing performance and value much more than the GTX 570.

i went from the same 460 to a 560ti and tbh its a bit meh.

nothing like the +50% seen here, my 460 would do 850 core all day and not even get warm, this 560 only just beats it there at stock and even when pushed its only about 15fps faster in bf3.

560s only saving grace is it clocks as well as the 460, if this 560 didnt do 1ghz core it wouldnt of even been worth the upgrade.
