NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 v2: specs and benchmarks

NVIDIA started GeForce GTX 460 v2 sales 24 September 2011 at a recommended price of $199. This is Fermi 2.0 architecture desktop card based on 40 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at gamers. 1 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 4.01 GHz are supplied, and together with 192 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 96.19 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is Dual-slot card attached via PCIe 2.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 210 mm. Two 6-pin power connectors are required, and power consumption is at 160 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 11.50 percent of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti.

Of GeForce GTX 460 v2's architecture, market type and release date.

GeForce GTX 460 v2's general performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of GeForce GTX 460 v2's performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider its benchmark and gaming test results.

Information on GeForce GTX 460 v2's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Parameters of memory installed on GeForce GTX 460 v2: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors don't have dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM.

Types and number of video connectors present on GeForce GTX 460 v2. As a rule, this section is relevant only for desktop reference video cards, since for notebook ones the availability of certain video outputs depends on the laptop model.
