8 Comments on Zotac Amplifies GeForce GTX 460
I've installed one of them because currently I don't have an SLI motherboard, man, this card is really noisy compared to my GTX 260.
Fan @100 is 3500RPM and I think that the one I've just installed has a broken fan or something because @100 it sound more like a jet engine, it has this buzz sound.
Still it's a very good graphic card, finally I can max BC2 with 4xAA.
Now the fan is at 50% and its good, the top temperature never tops 60c @803/core.
By the way, the ones I have are made by EVGA, it's the EE version so this may explain the noise.
