    Hey all. This is gonna sound strange, but here goes

    I wanna sell my GTX295 for a GTX460. I know it's a downgrade, but damn, I've seen what it can do with a bit of tweaking. I'm a downright tweakhead. I'm also not too pushed on the latest games on max settings with uber high fps etc.

    So basically, recommend me a GTX460 before I sell my GTX295 (anyone interested btw? pacman.gif)

    LOL

    I had a GT240 in as a physx card a while back. Made fcuk all difference, maybe 4-5 fps in some games, but not worth keeping in.

    Anywho, might stick on adverts for a straight swap for a decent 1GB gtx460 card.

    Opinions?

    not a bad move. yeah 6000 series could really do some damage if they make as much of an impact as the 5000 did
