Axle GeForce GTX 460 ACE review - Introduction

The GeForce GTX 460 has to be the best Fermi based graphics card of the moment in terms of value for money with decent thermals and power consumption. This is why we see a lot of SKU's released for this product, with a variety of cooling and factory overclocks.

The GeForce GTX 460 comes in many forms, shapes and sizes, but pretty much all of the cards out there are based on the NVIDIA reference design. That by itself is a rock solid design with no compromises at all. However we are gurus and we like to see things with a little niche and that x-factor. As such it's always with the greatest pleasure that we review the more customized products. Axle joins in on that trend as well as they recently released a factory overclocked model with an Arctic cooling Twin Turbo PRO cooler sitting on top of that GPU.

This particular model is called the GTX460 ACE edition, and comes with a nice fast 742MHz graphics core clock frequency. The ACE edition is actually the 4th GTX 460 model Axle has available. Here's their series overview.

  • ACE Edition: Overclocked version with the core clock and memory clock set higher than the reference design from NVIDIA
  • Breeze Edition: Built with passive cooling solution, either with heatpipe or heatsink.
  • Classic Edition: The core clock and memory clock are set according to the reference design
    Dynamic Edition: A cost down version with either or both the core clock and memory clock set lower than the reference design

As stated we test the AXLE GTX460 1GB D5 ACE edition graphics card. The end result is a really fast graphics cards that remains extremely silent. Isn't that what we all want ?

Axle GeForce GTX 460 768MB review
We test and review the Axle GeForce GTX 460 768MB.The product is reference clocked and as such offers baseline performance. What will be interesting to see if a pure 100% reference model can overclock to 'Super Overclocked' models just as well. As that might easily save you 50 USD -- all with a manual tweak. For that this card would need to go beyond say a 800 MHz core clock and 4000 MHz without voltage tweaking. But what if the card can achieve such results, wouldn't you have an absolute hot deal ?
