Pros: I needed a graphics card for a Photoshop CS5 workstation build. It needed to drive a high-end wide gamut photo editing monitor, and had to be Adobe certified so that Photoshop would recognize it for GPU co-processing. Since most graphics card reviews are aimed at gamers, it was not easy to figure out what kind of card to chose. In the end, it turns out that for photo editing there is no advantage in choosing a pro workstation card over a consumer card (not true for 3-D modelling or video editing though). For my purposes, I got more performance for less money by choosing this card. Features that were important to me: NVIDIA chipset (favoured by Adobe), more than sufficient OpenGL and memory specs, reference design with airflow out the back, two DVI ports (for adding a future 2nd monitor), and GeForce 400 series was the highest currently certified by Adobe. Installed easily, was recognized by Photoshop, works great, runs cool, and is fairly quiet. So far I am happy with my choice.

Cons: None that I can think of.

Overall Review: Build Components: - Intel Core i7-2600K - Intel BOXDZ68BC Z68 ATX Motherboard - 4x Crucial 4GB SDRAM DDR3 1600 Memory BLT2KIT4G3D1608DT1TX0 - Crucial M4 CT128M4SSD2 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC Internal SSD - Seagate Barracuda St320005N1A1AS-RK 2TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal HD - EVGA 01G-P3-1361-KR GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 Video Card - NEC PA241W-BK-SV 24.1" Widescreen LCD monitor w/SpectraViewII - SeaSonic X650 Gold 650W 80 Plus Gold Power Supply - LIAN LI PC-9F Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Case

Pros: I have the 460m in my i7 laptop, and it could push swtor at 60fps, so i grabbed this card knowing it was budget friendly and more then capable. so far i have played BF3-Ultra, MW2-Max,Black Ops-Max, skyrim, wow, GTA, L4D2. everything has been flawless. and for what i bought it for which was star wars the old republic i get 100fps (80avg) in non combat, and 60(avg) fps in combat.

Cons: Shadows, not sure if it's the games or the cards limitations, but the shadows seem jagged, blocky, usually i kill shadows in all my games just because it's a 20fps loss.

Overall Review: When i first installed this on my motherboard (i was doing a new build) the system wouldn't boot, i removed it re-installed it and everything has been flawless. Also if you visit EVGA's website and download the "Percision" application there are a grip of overclocking features, and on screen display overlays you can uitilize. a forum search will give you guidlines on overclocking. Also as stated before this is v2.0

Pros: Nice cheap card

Cons: ITS A V2!!!!!!!!! Do not get this if you want to SLI with a normal gtx 460.

Overall Review: Got this card on Christmas, threw it in put on the bridge and nothing. turns out this card is a GTX 40 v2. Nothing on the box or the website indicates this as a v2 card. The only difference is the 192 bit bus speed compared to the 256 of the normal 460. Still its not a bad card for the price if it the only card you are getting.

Pros: speed/cost ratio, Windows 7 and game compatibility, DX 11, EVGA warranty and reliability track record.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Running most at top settings @1280x1024. Upgraded from 9800GT and am very happy. I have had EVGA cards for a few years and have never regretted it.

Pros: Works flawlessly. Runs very cool and very quiet! Looks to be heatpipe heatsink

Cons: No non-beta drivers for Windows 7 64 bit, but hey, they work... Did not clearly state that is is v2, but I looked at the reviews so i knew, plus v2 is better anyways :) High pitched, very very low volume pitch. But if you listen to it very carefully it is annoying as hell, and hurts my brain a little.

Overall Review: I thought this gpu was going to be loud, and i was fine with that, but it isn't. 100% load runs 66C and no noise at all! This is the least amount of noise I have ever seen a desktop have. I replaced my GTS 250 with this gpu and boy teh gts 250 was LOUD compared to this. VERY VERY happy with purchase. I'll be running gramacs on it 24/7 when i am not playing on it. I'll post here if it fails me or anything of the above changes. Note for other reviewers, I HATE when you guys say "runs hot" or "runs cold" those are very loose words to use. What is hot to one person is not to another. Post numbers such as 100% usage and temps are 66C. Also don't post temps on games.... ok enough whining, back to work!

Pros: An EXCELLENT card for the price I paid 4 months ago! Love it so much, in-fact, that I already have a second one on the way!!!

Cons: While I DO love EVGA and their out-of-the-box performance, Their stock cooler leaves much to be desired. To get decent cooling out of the centrally-placed fan, you really have to turn it up. But when you do, you'd better have some hearing protection handy, because it gets LOUD. Not so much a Con as it is really a warning.

Overall Review: Mind you, as mentioned, this is a rev.2 card. nVidia will show it as a "GTX 460 V2". So, for those of you looking to do SLI with your pre-existing 460's and 460SE's you're out of luck, because the nVidia software will recognize it as 2 seperate(read independant) chipsets and they will not play nicely together. Also, you might want to invest in a nice aftermarket heatpipe cooling solution.

Pros: runs like champ

Cons: 35c idle-75c load

Overall Review: tried to sli with a 256 bit, didn't work so, i need to buy another

Pros: Good performance for the price. Bought for budget gaming. Quiet. Athlon x4 3.0ghz 8gb 1333 ram Single Gtx 460 v2 stock 500w 7.6 WEI BF3 (60 fps Ultra), Skyrim (50 fps Ultra), ME3 demo (60fps preset settings), KingdomsofAmalur (100fps Highest), Minecraft (100-200 fps), TF2 (100 fps High)

Cons: none

Overall Review: Got the (BF3 specific) error where after 5 minutes of smooth gaming it spikes continually every 5-30 sec regardless of quality. Was suspecting it was the card. Spent a week researching solutions. Upgrading from 4 to 8gb Ram resolved the issue for me but may not work for everyone.
