ASUS tries to TOP Palit’s factory OC’d GTX460

Here at PC Perspective we fell in love with the overclocked Palit Sonic Platinum GTX 460, as it produced results that equalled or beat the GTX 470 for a lesser price.  [H]ard|OCP tried a different factory overclocked box, the ASUS ENGTX460 TOP 1GB which sports a roughly 15% overclock but more importantly a custom cooler.  That cooler ends up having more to do with the Silver Award than the factory overclock does, see why here.

"We see just how well the ASUS ENGTX460 TOP 1GB does against a stock GTX 460 1GB and the HD 5850. Are the boosted frequencies enough to make our gameplay experience better? Does the new cooling solution keep it as cool and yet stay quiet?"
