14 DAY TRIAL // The web has been humming for some time with rumors about a certain collection of graphics adapters that a certain group of hardware specialists has been working on. Following the release of NVIDIA's Latest GeForce GTX 400 Series adapter, the GTX 460, its partners have been quite quick in unleashing their own versions, especially factory-overclocked models. Now, Point of View and the TGT Tuning team have brought out not just custom-made GTX 460 cards, but also revised GTX 470 and GTX 480 boards.
First off, there are two GTX 480 controllers, the TGT-480-A1-1536-C and the TGT-480-A1-1536-UC. Both have 1536 MB of GDDR5 VRAM and are powered by the GF100 graphics processing unit. What differentiates between them are the actual clock speeds. The C version has the GPU working at 730 MHz and the Memory at 3,800 MHz, whereas the UC has clocks of 760 MHz and 3,800 MHz, respectively. They cost 479 Euro and 499 Euro.
The second batch of cards is a pair of GTX 470 boards codenamed much after the same convention as the 480s, namely TGT-470-A1-1280-C and TGT-470-A1-1280-UC. Both have, obviously, 1280 MB of VRAM (3,500 MHz), but their GPU clocks are of 650 MHz and 680 MHz, respectively. Prices are of 339 Euro for the C (Charged) version and 359 Euro for the Ultra Charged (UC) one.
The third set of cards is, obviously, based on the GTX 460 and, unlike the previous two, is made up of not two, but four models, namely a Charged and Ultra Charged version of both the 768 MB VRAM iteration, as well as the 1GB one. The Charged cards have clocks of 780 MHz for the GF104 and 3,800 MHz for the memory, whereas the Ultra Charged operate at 820 MHz and 4,000 MHz, respectively. The TGT-460-A2-768-C and TGT-460-A2-768-UC sell for 209.90 and 229.90 Euro, respectively, whereas the TGT-460-A2-1024-C costs 239 and the TGT-460-A2-1024-UC is priced at 259 Euro.
