all right well there's our GTX 480 on the test bench and our total score in 3dmark Vantage is 23,000 3dmark so you can see that the 460 Hawk with it's fairly outstanding overclocking performance my understanding actually based on talking to a couple others who have sample cards and to the team at MSI is that mine actually was a subpar overclocker for a hawk so this is kind of a worst case scenario but even then we're able to get within spitting distance of a stock GTX 480 and the difference in price is probably the most interesting part because your Elana got a bunch of stuff on my screen that probably there's no need to show to the entire YouTube audience 480 by the way for everyone who keeps complaining that I'm not running Windows 7 I am now running Windows 7 on my work machine I don't know why that was so important but I'd get all these comments every time I show something on my work computer and know he's not running Windows 7 why isn't he running Windows 7 well now I am okay so 5 49.99 for a 480 and for a 460 Hawk wait for it BAM - $69.99 so I mean yeah if you can afford a 4 ID you know what yes it does perform better yes it will continue to overclock past what we were able to achieve with a 460 remember that's like maxed out but you can't really argue with the value of something like a hawk Edition card so anyway I thought that was a pretty cool demonstration and thank you for checking out my video blog don't forget to subscribe and that was GTX 460 Hawk vs. GTX 480 not Hawk
