Galaxy GeForce GTX 460 Hall of Fame Edition Graphics Card Pictured
First reported in October, Galaxy's GeForce GTX 460 HOF (Hall of Fame) edition graphics card seems to have finally taken shape, with the company giving out pictures of the card with its cooling solution installed. The card sports a milky-white colored PCB that makes use of 1 Gigabit memory chips and digital PWM power circuitry that makes use of proadlizers to condition power.
Its cooling solution makes use of an aluminum fin array to which heat is conveyed using four copper heat pipes, cooled by a single 80~90 mm fan. The card makes use of a 6+2 phase digital PWM power circuit that allows software voltage control. Out of the box, the card is clocked at 850/1700/1000 MHz (4 GHz GDDR5 effective), core/CUDA cores/memory. More pictures can be found at the source.

Or it does not mean anything?
i vote on white today..
If GF110 and GF104 is anything to go by (nvidias ability to tweak a chip on the same fab process, and an already kickass GPU, respectively) 560's should be cheap to produce, easy to cool, overclock like maniacs and sell like hotcakes.
So if it costs a lot more than 1 gig versions even overclocked to 1ghz it still just is not fast enough even in SLI to really need a HUGE frame buffer. At 2560 * 1600 at max detail in Metro 2033 in Directx 11 these cards even at their fullest potential are just not fast enough. Not trying to take a wiz on Galaxy's parade but we have to be honest here. :wtf:
P.S Were you hungry Wolf? I thought for a second you said sauce.
but then you get scenario's where the reference cards themselves are absolutely fantastic, two examples spring to mind, 5850 and 6950. GTX580 may be a contender too.
unfortunately it use full hsf cover so its kinda disappointing
Strangely on Galaxy's site, this card is listed as "White edition" and the only "Hall of Fame" card there is a GTS 450 with an Arctic Cooler Twin Turbo Pro.
