TPU's GTX460 Club

If you don't mind, that bios you uploaded came back with bad integrity. Please use nvflash for windows and run the "--save" command.

yeah i had the same problem
here's another one

Or you can use GPUz and get a bios from there.

I did

 

[brandonwh64]

Ok yea thats were i got mine to tweak and flash

 

[CrackerJack]

i was only get bad integrity from gpu-z

Want a custom fan speed? Want it to default to 800 core?

yeah 800 is fine, on fan speed... like to keep kinda quite

 

[JrRacinFan]

Ok gave it a touch extra voltage on the core. Same clocks as your pointed out, 800/1Ghz(4 effective)/1600 shaders, 1.1v default w/ 1.17v max and lowered your minimum fan speed from 30% to 15%. You may notice a slightly higher idle temp but thats due to lowered fan speed and higher default volts. I am certain bios dump from GPUz would have been "ok" but i'd rather get the green light out of nibitor from the get-go.

EDIT:

Oh and I only altered your 3d clocks, didn't touch your power saving clocks.

 

[CrackerJack]

how did you altar settings in nibitor? i loaded bios, but can't change shit for some reason... kinda reason why i had you do it lol Playing with fan settings now and 60% is about the max i would like it to get.. so min of 50% would be fine. at 60% temps are ~30c vs ~40c. But i'm gonna play around with precision and fine my sweet spot

 

[CrackerJack]

what max temps on gtx 460s?

 

[brandonwh64]

Mine gets about 52 full load at 1.13V, clocks are 905/1810/2000

 

[JrRacinFan]

45-48C in-game/58-62C furmark here @ 855 core 1.087v. Fan is defaulted and never goes above 40%.

NEW GeForce 263.14 WHQL Support 400series and more

There is a new Driver out for ur GTX460 cards no mods or anything needed just unpack run the setup.exe and it's not even non Nvidia's site yet it got spotted at Gainward/Palit's side yesterday.

DL Mirrors:

WinXP x86 (Gainward.com / WinXP x86 (Palit.biz)
WinXP x64 (Gainward.com) / WinXP x64 (Palit.biz)
Vista/Win7 x86 (Gainward.com) / Vista/Win7 x86 (Palit.biz)
Vista/Win7 x64 (Gainward.com) / Vista/Win7 x64 (Palit.biz)

If u does can't give u a good speed u can always try TechConnect Magazine's mirrors they can be find here: GeForce 263.14 WHQL (TCMagazine.com)


and last not least This Driver works with Beta 4 and Beta 5 of MSI Afterburner:

You guys think a GTX 460 1GB will run on a 550w psu? It currently runs a GTS 250, which uses more power. Here's the proof. So it should work fine right?

it should, my MSI N460GTX HAWK need's minimum a 450watt psu, but what psu does u have? (name and model)

and what is ur system atm?

 

[1nf3rn0x]

System:
E7400 @ Stock=70w
4GB DDR2 800MHZ
4x120mm non L.E.D fans+1x140mm non L.E.D fan=30w total
500GB WD Caviar Black=15w
1GB GTX 460=160W
Around 300w Total, I think it will run fine, hbu puma?

PSU: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2794#sp

u should be fine, ino Gigabyte's GFX and Motherboard Quality they are good i dunno about their PSU quality never had one but if it can make aleast 450~500watt with good AMP on the 12volt rails u should be good ^^

 

[JrRacinFan]

You are totally overestimating the power consumption of those components. Your rig would run fine even on a decent 400w with the 460.

 

[kurosagi01]

Well i can tell you the 768mb version runs perfectly fine on my corsair 400w

 

[wolf]

just nabbed up a Gigabyte GTX460 OC, currently testing 800/1600/4000 on stock vcore of 975mv

Interested in a new bios to remove the voltage cap too, but I havent even touched it yet.

my ultimate goal i think will be 900 core 1800 shader

 

[JrRacinFan]

See if you can run 900 core without a voltage uncap first. If not hit me up via pm with a bios. Also is that an SOC?

will try for 900mhz @ 1087mv now. has been running 850/1700 on 1050mv just fine.

nah shes a standard OC edition, 715 core 1430 shader stock. absolutely love the cooler tho, quiet and excellent performer!

much shorter and lighter than the 9800GTX I took out thats under half as fast as this card

 

[wolf]

well I'm A'ok @ 900/1800/2000 core/shader/mem so far @ 1087mv in every game she's run, I'm about to throw Kombustor at it, and if it survives a few minutes of that I'll start backing the volts down a bit, if possible, should help with the temp and power consumption.

these are epic cards... 675mhz stock to 900... gotta love 25% extra performance for free. love Gigabytes implementation too.

EDIT, 925/1850/2100 @ 1087mv gaming and kombustor stable! I think I lucked out with this card, 950 will lock up the driver after about 4 minutes... need moar volts...

Can I be added, just installed my GTX 460 OC 1Gb, up from a GTX 260 192 core 896mb

added, if u oc, post ur clocks and voltage and they will be added too ^^
