Just got in the gtx 460 - 768 so it's benchmark time. I kinda got lazy and only benched a couple games before pulling the gtx 260, but the info should be useful. btw, the gtx 260 is the msi oc v2 edition that newegg had for a long time, oc is at 655 core and mem 1050. here it is. the gtx 460 - 768 is here. for some reason the 460 came clocked at 720, according to msi afterburner and gpu-z that is stock speed even though it allegedly is supposed to be 675. shaders locked to core speed on both.
The 260 isn't 100% stable over the base factory oc so I just leave it there typically. I tested 3dmark vantage (yeah, I know), my own little custom loop of nwn2, and crysis demo.
cpu: i7 920 @ 3.78, HT on
pcmark vantage:
gtx 260 @655/2100 - p10179
gtx 460 @720/3600 - p11431
gtx 460 @905/4000 - p13122
= 14.8% improvement over stock
= 28.9% improvement over old gtx 260 - 216
crysis demo 4xAA, 16xAF 1680x1050, everything VERY HIGH except postprocessing and shaders set to HIGH
gtx 260 @655/2100 - bad data I think, shows 23.2 avg
gtx 460 @720/3600 - 36.10 avg
gtx 460 @905/4000/1.087v - 43.02 avg
= 19.1% improvement over stock
nwn2 - bandit camp. have neeshka and khelgar in party, party runs to edge of bandit fort wall and back to entrance to area. area already cleared out. cpu still i7-920 @ 3780, HT on, all gpu settings max, 8xQ msaa
deleted, couldn't get consistent results and never saved with fraps. will use them to test out my oc improvement in real world game, however.
gtx 460 @720/3600 - min 32, max 61, avg 42.800
gtx 460 @905/4000/1.087v - min 34, max 61, avg 48.2
= 12.6% improvement over stock
all settings same, changing AA to 8x SSAA yields:
gtx 460 @720/3600 - min 19, max 61, avg 26.2
gtx 460 @905/4000/1.087v - min 23, max 60, avg 30.9
= 17.9% improvement over stock
