all right well there's our GTX 480 on the test bench and our total score in 3D
Mark Vantage is 23,000 3D marks so you can see that the
460 Hawk with its
uh fairly outstanding overclocking
performance uh my understanding actually based on uh talking to a couple others
who have sample cards and uh to the team at MSI is that mine actually was a a
subpar overclocker for a hawk so this is kind of a a worst case scenario but even
then we're able to get within spitting distance of a stock GTX
480 and the difference in price is probably the most interesting part
because uh here hold on I got a bunch of stuff on my screen that probably there's
no need to uh show to the entire YouTube audience
480 by the way for everyone who keeps complaining that I'm not running Windows
7 I am now running Windows 7 on my work machine uh I don't know why that was so
important but uh I'd get all these comments every time i' show something on
my work computer and no he's not running Windows 7 why isn't he running Windows 7
well now I am okay so $549.99 for a 480
and for a 460 Hawk wait for it bam
$269.99 so I mean yeah if you can afford a 480 you know what yes it does perform
better yes it will continue to overclock past what we were able to achieve with a
460 remember that's like maxed out but
you can't really argue with the value of something like a hawk Edition card so
anyway I thought that was a pretty cool demonstration and uh thank you for
checking out my video blog don't forget to subscribe and that was GTX 460 Hawk
versus gtx480 not
Hawk
