EVGA Intros Pair of GeForce GTX 460 SE Graphics Cards

[btarunr]

EVGA kicked off its GeForce GTX 460 SE lineup with two models. The first one is a base model (part number: 01G-P3-1366-TR), sticking to NVIDIA reference design and clock speeds of 650/1300/3400 MHz (core/CUDA cores/memory GDDR5 effective), and being priced at US $179.99. The second one is a factory-overclocked model bearing EVGA's SuperClocked (SC) badge (part: 01G-P3-1367-TR). This bears clock speeds of 720/1440/3600 MHz, while retaining the reference design board and cooler. This one goes for $189.99.

Umm, GTX460 768MB is that price??? So what's the point of these cards sitting at that same price level??

What does "SE" mean in terms of nV branding. For ATI it used to mean crippled version. Is this also true of nV?

EDIT: Just found this. Thanks NVIDIA Makes GeForce GTX 460 SE Official

open your mind and you'll see that a phase out of the 768mb is definitely set up with this release. Just my suspicion but a very feasable one imo.

save the $10 and overclock it yourself

 

[Hayder_Master]

it should be cheaper

I was kind of hoping to see prices in the $150 area, but at $180 this card isn't really worth it. Though it definitely looks like the 768MB GTX460 is going bye bye.

It's fine though. Just like what happened with the 8800GS/9600GSO, once the 9600GT (G94) yields started picking up, they cut the 9600GSO out of the picture.

How boring .. may as well get a 6850 for this price point, you'd think performance around the HD 4890 and GTX 280 would be cheaper or around 150 AUD by now.

Anyways 768MB is not very attractive when you can have the FTW edition for some 229$, spending the extra 30$ makes it well worth the OC and 1GB, fail nVidia
