    There's by no means a warranty to overclocking. In my opinion, I see 1000MHz core on stock cooling tough to consider. I have superior cooling than the Hawk, in addition I have a modded BIOS that unlocks up to 1.213v on the GPU core in Afterburner. I insincerity cannot get to 1000MHz core. But for the PLL voltage modification actually helps a ton, then 1000MHz will be hard to obtain. They were very soon launched, consequently there's not to great extent user information out present.

    Reasonable can the msi hawk 460 actually be completely stable at 1000MHz on its stock air cooler similar to that announce? Furthermore be it able to go superior? At the present I observe the 460s at up to 780 MHz (hawk) however I make out the 480s at 756 Does that indicate the 460 is up the 480s capability or no I’m thinking a 480 at 700mhz is quicker than a 460 at 700mhz right?

    Generally as soon as people hit these especially far above the ground clocks they are simply stable intended for a extremely small time or in 2D simply. As a result don't experience awful at what time you don't crack 1ghz only to bsod or throw artifacts. A large amount sample won't approach close up except well cooled and feasible vmods however you can attempt to unlock the clocks as a result to facilitate you can focus on the core with no maxing the shader. This is how one gets 1.7ghz shader on a old 8800gtx at the same time as the core is at rest stock.Using this approach it remains stable.

    The GTX 460 is a extraordinary card since:
    1) Present thereis 200MHz headroom for overclock, there are two version already one with 768mb and 192bit memory interface and 1gb with256bit memory interface.
    2) The truth so as to you can buy 200MHz higher clocked GTX 460 at a comparable price vary warrants enclosure in the analysis by itself, not to point out that by means of such headroom for overclock there can approximately be a latest card known GTX 461 for instance at the same time as the overclocked cards in fact sell for 200$ which is remarkable and enormous for clients.
