Inno3D released its non-reference design GeForce GTX 465 OC Vapor-Freeze graphics card. This factory-overclocked card uses NVIDIA reference PCB (albeit in green), with its own-design cooling assembly. The cooler makes use of a GPU direct-contact base, from which five heat-pipes convey heat directly from the GPU to aluminum fin blocks on either sides of a [...]

NVIDIA plans a new card and the official brand is GeForce GT 430. We also heard that there is a GF106-based GeForce GT 450 coming but this time we got some spec for the slower of two. The GeForce GT 430 core works on 700MHz and we don’t know the shader clock or the number [...]

In our continuing coverage of Multi-GPU configurations with varying PCIe Bandwidth, we put x16/x16 and x8/x8 PCIe to the test. Does having less PCIe bandwidth make difference in gaming? We know that a “lesser” motherboard can save you money. Using GeForce GTX 480 SLI we show you the real-world differences. Last week we showed you [...]

It is time for another GeForce GTX 460 review, this time the fastest 768MB model available on the globe. Recently the guys and cute Dutch gals over at Point of View introduced a new line of enthusiast overclocked graphics cards cards under a label called TGT tuned graphics cards. The TGT cards are a series [...]

After the launch of GF104 NVIDIA got a real opportunity to design a dual-processor graphics card with Fermi architecture that would offer acceptable thermal and electrical specs. Our today’s article will discuss the performance of a solution like that. As you know from our news and reviews, AMD’s superiority in the sector of single-processor gaming [...]
