Palit GTX 460 1GB Sonic Installed in CM Stacker

[KASTOREL]

Hello, the card works only with the 6-pin adaptors plugged in ? It doesn't run without them ?

[MrKillswitch88]

Hang onto that G80, the broken cap and be easily fixed. No skill needed just a simple tool. I should do a video of my machine some day.

[ComputerTechTV]

@MrKillswitch88 Yes this I will do might fix it and put the shaman on there since it will not fit the Palit 460. When I get better at soldering I will fix it. Think that is why the RAM and shaders overclock high and core wont budge but 10-15mhz.

[chuchupikachu]

@ComputerTechTV Can you confirm that the shaman does not fit? If so, by how much? Some people propose to remove the housing from the dvi ports, which gives you 7mm more or so. Do you think that might do the trick? Reason I am asking is that I am pretty desperate to find a really silent cooler for my palit 460, but so far, no luck.

Go AMD ^^

[pr0jectSkyneT]

love the stacker. Love the CM in general and have 2 of them

[buzzin92]

Im keeping my e5200 at 4GHz with gtx 460 until the bulldozer platform is released before i upgrade :) Long live socket 775 :D

[TheDJGabizz]

Get a Intel CPU. Better then a AMD ;)

[PC4Free]

@TheDJGabizz debatable - not on price, my 1090T runs so cool aswell :P

[TheDJGabizz]

@PC4Free Yeah, AMD beats Intel with price, but Intel beats AMD with speed and overclocking. Also If you get a X58 motherboard It will also have support for tripple channel memory :)

My AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ does not beat my Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 @ 2.5Ghz. The E5200 even beats the AMD Athlon II X3 445 :O BUT yes If u want to go cheap go for AMD, but If you want something with performance GET INTEL! :)

[PC4Free]

@TheDJGabizz Yeah fair point. The chip I would buy atm is the sandbridge i5 2500k - BEAST

[ComputerTechTV]

@PC4Free If money wasnt option but for P/P ratio I pick AMD X6 1075,1090,1100.

[ComputerTechTV]

@PC4Free I am upgrading from a E4500, 2GB of DDR2, and P45 chipset almost anything will be fast.

[BarackMcBush]

my evga gtx 460 1gb ran at 900mhz with MSI Afterburner Voltage Tweak ,Stable ,Great Card for the Money!...

[BarackMcBush]

Does the gtx 460 do HDMI with video/audio ?

[SylentCommando]

you should keep the 8800gt for physx along side the 460, i have 2 x 6870 in crossfire and i GTX 260 for Physx processing. I like that case loads of room for harddrives. Nice Vid update.

[RE4L72]

What kinda PPD are u getting on ur gtx 460?

[ComputerTechTV]

@RE4L72 I made a video on my rickarter channel will link it to this video. I get around 10K stock no overclock.

[zver711]

Don't buy AMDs 6 core, unless the money is tight. It, and the whole AMD line right now are getting owned in benchmarks by the old Core i7s and some i5s, not to mention the new Sandy Beach shabang :)

[keiki646]

Sandy bridge has been release for almost 9 days so far, why don't you add the 8800GT for dedicated PhysX and the 460 as a primary card.

[ComputerTechTV]

@keiki646 I was thinking of that but wasn't sure it would benefit. I heard a 8800gt 512 g92 or 9800gt was minimum.

[keiki646]

@ComputerTechTV Well The issue of understanding the 460 is that it has limitions as well. You shoud give it a shot to, right now I am running a 5850 @975/1265 with a dedicated PhysX card (9800GT) and it works great and give a great performance when playing some game that requires PhysX,

[keiki646]

@ComputerTechTV with 768mb models is pretty darn weird. the whole point is to run higher settings and res and the 768mb will limit the very settings you are trying to run. even at 1920x1080, several games will exceed 768mb before a gtx460 sli setup has reached its potential. Pay the $50 extra for the 1GB - you also get more ROPs, which are more important at higher resolutions.

[keiki646]

Sandy bridge has been release for almost 9 days so far

[ComputerTechTV]

@keiki646 Yes I know it is in the description box I made this video while back.

[blothian01]

My friend that I reccomended just built a x6 AMD. I think he will be uploading the unboxing of all the parts.

[AgentHydra]

8800GTS for PhysX. I'm hopin your next build won't have a half dozen fans scattered around lol.

[zver711]

@AgentHydra "half dozen fans scattered around" - you forgot to add "dipped in ice"

[ComputerTechTV]

@AgentHydra You know it will!

[sharpshoooter82]

@AgentHydra LOL rick will never change that

[sharpshoooter82]

keep the 8800gts for a back up

[ComputerTechTV]

@sharpshoooter82 Yes I have that and my old 7950GT for back up. Might put one in the media center computer in the living room.

[sharpshoooter82]

@ComputerTechTV and just to let you now amd bulldozer is coming out also and microcenter has the i5 2500k for 180 bucks and anthore i5 2500 for 150 bucks i might get one in march or feburay

[couchslouch1982]

I guess I should of read the description about the case and all but if that was me I would use the CM stacker.

[couchslouch1982]

Great vid man.The CM stacker seem to suit your needs better than the previous cases you have run.

[getlow1985]

Are you gonna sell the 8800? If so is it gonna be on OCN?
