I was looking at the EVGA GTX line (they seem to be the manufacturer with the most positive reviews):
GeForce GTX 460 with 675 MHz core clock
PCI Express 2.0
1024 MB 256 bit 2.5ns GDDR5 memory
3600 MHz memory clock and 1350 MHz shader clock
GeForce GTX 460 Superclocked with 763 MHz core clock
PCI Express 2.0
1024 MB 256 bit 2.5ns GDDR5 memory
3800 MHz memory clock and 1526 MHz shader clock
GeForce GTX 465 with 607 MHz core clock
PCI Express 2.0
1024 MB 256-bit 2.5ns GDDR5 memory
3206 MHz memory clock and 1215 MHz shader clock
NVIDIA 2-way and 3-way SLI ready
GeForce GTX 465 Superclocked with 625 MHz core clock
PCI Express 2.0
1024 MB 256-bit 2.5ns GDDR5 memory
3250 MHz memory clock and 1250 MHz shader clock
NVIDIA 2-way and 3-way SLI ready
These are all at about the 200 dollar mark. What confused me was benchmarks from videocardbenchmark lists GTX 460 at 2,325 and GTX 465 at 2,472. It appears the 460's are better, though, in their core clock speed and their memory/shader clocks. So was the point of 465 the SLI? I don't have a SLI capable mobo, so it'd be easy to scratch those 2 off if that's the case.
Then it's just down to superclocked vs non-superclocked. Any thoughts on that?
