GTX 460 at 30 fps?

[emmanuelxian07]

I just tested my EVGA GTX 460 SC (763MHz // 950MHz // 1526MHZ - GPU // Memory // Shader Clock).

-FurMark
-3D Mark Vantage

I can only get about 30 frames per second on both of them.
At one point, I was able to get 40 fps on 3D mark Vantage but when I was I think on phase 4, the program crashed and I got an error message saying Adobe flash is running slow and that the program may not respond if I continue the script. I tried to pull up the program again but it won't respond anymore.

Is this really the limit of the GTX 460?




--Out of curiosity. This is off the topic but will I get any performance boost if I use an SLI set up with just 1 display? I want to try SLI but I don't want to use more than 1 display. Tnx!

SLI often allows 50-80% increases in framerates, depending on the resolution...

However, your MB chipset (880) does not 'officially' support SLI, but a few folks have found ways around it, or so I've read...

Yep. Based on what I understand with my little research, SLI really improves performance in one way or another, but on all that I have read, there's always more than 1 monitor. So I just really want to confirm if this same performance will be noticeable even when I just plan on using 1 display, and most especially in my case where I can only get about 30 frames per second.

So will I?
