Thread: Cyclone 768MB MSI N460GTX Graphic cards

With the launch of the GTX 460 from Nvidia in two 1GB and 768MB versions, several manufacturers began making its proposals, in some cases, modifications to the reference version. In this case the charge of offering a new alternative in this segment is with your graphics card MSI N460GTX Cyclone with an interesting presentation that calls attention given enough emphasis is placed on the cooling system and proprietary software to increase or improve performance particularly impressive. The back side we have the product specifications mentioning the support of the new technologies like DX11, PhysX, 3DVision Surround, CUDA, among others.



The accompanying accessories are Molex to PCIe cables, manuals and the respective drivers (CD) and software. The latter can be downloaded from the official website of MSI. The Cyclone N460GTX heat dissipation has a fabulous central 9cm fan that provides increased airflow and lower noise generation in relation to the standard model. We are witnessing a very attractive model in both visual and performance level. Respect to their frequencies, the GPU runs at 725 MHz (comes with factory OC) and type GDDR5 memory (Samsung) at 3600 MHz making a total of 768MB with a 192-bit interface enough to get good results in some games 1920x1200/1080.

With a base of nickel-coated copper, born two large heatpipes and thickness communicating with the rest of the structure that has thin aluminum fins thus generating the desired efficiency. Obviously, if we speak of a Cyclone MSI associate it directly with this type of advanced cooling solution. MSI requires a good quality design as it uses military-grade components Cap Hi-C to obtain accurate voltages for the GPU and gauge "Solid State Choke" (SSC) to remove any type of buzz also providing higher overclocking capability. Clearly with these features increase the lifetime of the product.
