MSI’s latest Fermi-based graphics card is a tweaker’s dream, assuming you sit around dreaming about cranking voltage knobs on your hardware. That’s exactly what you can do with MSI’s new N460GTX Hawk, supposedly the world’s first videocard with a triple overvoltage function to support core voltage, memory voltage, and PLL voltage adjustments.
MSI says the N460GTX Hawk is also the only model on the market to have successfully achieved 1GHz on air, a feat made possible in part by the 7+1 PWM power design, V-Check Points (which allows users to measure voltage on the graphics card with a multimeter), active phase switching (APS), and the dual-fan Twin Frozr II heatsink.
With the core clockspeed cranked to 1GHz, Indonesian overclocker “Hazzan” posted a 3DMark Vantage score of 21,706 (18,725 GPU, 41,552 CPU), an impressive mark for an air cooled setup.
No word yet on price or availability.
