Wow... 5 months later.

Well, glad it wasn't the BFG, they went out of business. :olo:

Did you ever try baking your old card?

Not even close. I own both and the 560Ti is quite a bit faster from my experience. All the charts I've seen from various websites have been inconsistent with each other and my own personal testing.

My recommendation after 3 months of observation and in-game comparisons on my machine is that the 560Ti is a better purchase than the 460.

I just switched from the GTX 460 1Gb to the 560ti and I agree, it's definitely the better buy. And yes, the 460 is still a very valid card.
