Decisive Battle For Non-reference ASUS/MSI/Gigabyte GTX 460
Final Comments

Now we can know which card had won in this decisive battle,the "champion "was MSI N460GTX HAWK with score of 91.85,while Gigabyte GV-N460OC-1GI and ASUS ENGTX460 TOP placed second and third respectively.
For the extreme overclocking players,we recommend MSI N460GTX HAWK for its special function—"Xtreme Cool"and" OCP Unlocker"switches,it is of great help for extreme overclocking.As for temperature,it defeated the other two graphics cards.However,it didn’t perform very well at noise control.

The three cards all have their unique characters,and we grant the recommended prize to MSI N460GTX HAWK.
