Hardware Asus GeForce GTX 465 Graphics Card Review

Fermi makes its first foray into the mainstream and has the HD 5850 firmly in its sights

You bothced the BC2 link... Here is the fix. < Bad Company 2[/url] >

Shame about the card, I just don't think Nvidia realize how much they have screwed the pooch with fermi.

 

Oh dear... What a poor card.

 

Is it my imagination or has there been a lot of disappointing hardware recently?

 

Ouch. Seems ATI will still be right up there for a short while (at least!) yet.

 

failsausage.

 

Looks like still no hope for ATI price drops any time soon.

 

So its slow, hot, power hungry and expensive! Where do I sign up? *sigh*

Can I make a minor suggestion when a card scores low among cards which are seen as direct competitors. How about throwing in a much cheaper card, such as a 5770 as a point of comparison. I seem to remember in previous card reviews, the list was a lot larger, but this one only has a few cards to compare against.

 

Oh dear.

Power consumption that beats a 5870?! A £230 price tag?! Drop the price down to £200 maximum, ideally <£180 and you have a half decent card. Pricing it the same as a 5850 - that's just plain silly. On the other hand, SLI performance does do well as usual.

At least the temperatures are decent, right? Right? Aw, fudge it.

 

What a pointless card. I'm surprised it even got a 6 overall score. There really are too many graphics cards out.

Just 3 from each manufacturer would be fine.

One budget, one mainstream, one top of the range.

 

@Paul - The URL link has not been formatted correctly on page 8. Also, '' has been left there just after second pair of images on page 8.

Waiting for the 460 and confirmation of the rumour that it can perform as good as a 480 when OCed.

 

Thats just nVidia marketing typical bull****. It has half the processing power of the 480 so it really doesn't matter how much you overclock it, I really dont think you will hit that level of performance. A 465 cant even match the 5850 so how is a 460 going to beat a 5870 rofl...

 

@ Ph4ZeD - You never know until you see the figures themselves

A well written review, a shame about the conclusion!

 

The conclusion is......Buy ATI...

 

Why? Because it doesn't recommend the card or that the card isn't worth recommending?

 

PS: Semiaccurate would advise on not pining to many hopes on GF 104/106/108 being anything special. Infact they're likely to be more of the Fermi same!

yeah you really need to get a hardware league table going. it is very hard to compare older products / products not included in the given review.

 

nvidia pricing for the 4 series in the uk is useless. How do they expect to compete when the 5850 is £225?

465 (which isn't much quicker then my 260 and that cost £130) £240
470 £290

Sad thing is if nvidia were more competitive wouldn't be surprised if ati could drop the 5850/5870 to 4850/4870 prices (i.e. sub £150).

 

Hardly worth releasing the 465...terrible value for money when compared to the HD5850...

Looks like this generation is all about ATI still. These fermi cards look to be the gas-guzzlers of GPU technology. Though given their previous dominance I suppose it's no bad thing to see the pendulum swing the other way this time around.
