This review is from: EVGA GeForce GTX460 1024 MB DDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card with Lifetime Warranty 01G-P3-1371-AR (Personal Computers)
You may all know this card already! the GF104 model Fermi GPU Card.
This comes with LIFETIME WARRANTY! register it within 30days of purchase and it's eVGA! the best in my opinion.
This card runs VERY COOL! with a/c it idles around 28C and under load the highest i saw was 61C that was in METRO 2033 on high and tessellation. (Could run on max everything but was at 18fps on current settings i get 40fps and up)
I have this on a P5Q-E mobo, E8400 and 4GB DDR2 RAM so the rest of the system is a bottleneck!
3dmark06 did not skyrocket but in DX11 applications it was very noticeable.
This replaces a 9800GTX+ which just mysteriously stop outputting.

To reiterate some of the other comments, for the price (currently 199$), this card cannot be beat. It runs very cool, relatively quietly, and if you are a serious gamer that doesn't have an insane budget (say for two of these) then you'll be very happy with this purchase. I upgraded 3 months ago and I haven't had a problem yet. The fact that the card is SLI ready and with a lifetime warranty means this a card will last me for a VERY long time.
*The only negatives I can mention are that (1) if you aren't used to one of the GTX models they can be very large compared to some lower end graphics cards. Just make sure that you have plenty of room on the motherboard. And (2) the card requires a 450W (12V) power supply with either two 6-pin connectors or four 4-Pin Peripheral Connectors to connect to the adapters. I found:

Video card works great out of the box. Included was a driver CD which included a OC'ing utility and some others, and all the cables you should require to start er' up! Here are some points about this card:
1. Runs about 35 degrees Celsius idle in windows with the fan turned to the lowest setting (stock).
2. EVGA gives you a awesome overclocking program which allows you to control all 3 clock speeds (core/memory/shader) and the fan speed. Works very well.
3. Comes with a lifetime warranty. Very nice to have (although I've never had a problem before, its a comfort factor I suppose!)
4. Fan can be a bit noisy on it's highest setting... of course you should expect that when overclocking -- but, you won't hear it over your PC game, movie or headphones if listening at a mid-range volume. I've had this one's core clock up to 800 at around 45 Celsius idle / minimal use.
5. For a limited time, not sure how long it's running, you can also...Read more
