2x 460 SLI is usually faster than a single 580.

IF they manage to get the 460's running at stock clocks, it should be faster.

exsample (has pictures):

Crysis warhead 1.1
Dx10, Very high Quality, 4xAA, 16xAF - Airfield Demo (1920x1200):

6870 CF= 50 fps
460 SLI = 48 fps
580 = 41 fps
5970 = 42 fps
480 = 34 fps



the EVGA GTX 460 2Win, comes with higher than stock 460 clocks... so yeah, this will be faster than a stock 580.

from Evga:
Core Clock Speed: 700MHz
Memory Clock Speed: 3600MHz

Based on 430.00 dollars.
I would sit on pricewatch and buy a gtx 580, UNLESS you want surround gaming or 3-4 way desktop. Dual 460's is sweet, but I don't surround game and use only 1 maybe 2 monitors.
And I have to be patient when new games launch for sli profiles :(

For it's intended market it does look like a decent card tho.

But I would agree that a single card would have the advantage of the option to sli at least.

Its a good card for people that only have 1 PCIe slot, and want to try 3 monitor setups and want to use nvidia. Also great for people that where planning on doing 460 SLI, but only had one PCIe slot. Or nvidia users, on AMD systems, where SLI could be a problem.
