Answer» Hi, Could someone tell me, percentage wise, how better the Geforce 460Gtx is over the Geforce 260? Thanks!!It would vary from benchmark to benchmark. Just look at some. A 460 wouldn't be too much more than a 260 used anyways.Please note first that nVidia graphic cards aren't ORDERED by performance with the version numbers (they go down and up per series).
260GTX... 216 PROCESSING cores Graphics CLOCK (MHz): 576 MHz Processor Clock (MHz): 1242 MHz Texture Fill Rate (billion/sec): 36.9 Supports DirectX 10
285GTX... Two GTX260 glued together Specs similar to that of the 275GTX
460GTX has... 336 Processing cores Graphics Clock (MHz): 675 MHz Processor Clock (MHz): 1350 MHz Texture Fill Rate (billion/sec): 37.8 Supports DirectX 11
With the 460GTX there is a difference between the 768MB and 1GB version of about 5-10fps @ high resolutions. At both 1680 and 1920 resolution, the 1GB GTX 460 is roughly 10% faster than the 768MB card.
460GTX Memory (1GB GDDR5 vs 768MB GDDR5) Memory Clock: 1800 (same) Memory Interface Width: 256-bit vs 192-bit Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec): 115.2 vs 86.4
260GTX Memory Memory Clock (MHz): 999 Standard Memory Config: 896 MB Memory Interface Width: 448-bit Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec): 111.9
Bench mark will depend on your other computers specs and game, but as a BASIC idea (using the same specs except card):
Crysis: Warhead - 1680x1050 - Gamer Quality Nvidia 460GTX (1GB) - 41.1fps Nvidia 260GTX (896MB) - 27.4fps
Crysis: Warhead - 1920x1200 - Gamer Quality Nvidia 460GTX (1GB) - 33.8fps Nvidia 260GTX (896MB) - 22.7fps
Crysis: Warhead - 2560x1600 - Gamer Quality Nvidia 460GTX (1GB) - 19.2fps Nvidia 260GTX (896MB) - can't handle
At high resolution, the fps difference is around 10fps increase with the 460GTX. Lower resolutions improve up to 20fps with most GAMES.
