anybody see how they do against the 5830

this seems to be the price point they are competing at

just saw a 5830 for $ 184.00 on the egg

Scaling seems epic from what I have read so far

But all the reviews I have seen pit them against the 5770 witch is below there price point ?

Agreed C, I think they will become hardware monsters at ta Bot

What reviews? The ones I read from anandtech, techpowerup, [h], guru3d, etc... are all putting it against the 5830.

Bought one of the EVGA superclocked editions Sunday night for my everday cruiser. Going to pick up another in a month or so.

what do you guys think, the extra shaders on the 465 are worth it?

For gaming or benching? Every review I read has the 460 1gb beating the 465 more then half the time. Plus, they seem to get between 820-850 core on stock volts, and 900+ with 1.1v.

675 stock, ~850 stock volts (~1.0v), ~900 with ~1.1v.

Memroy isnt worth clocking that far, hurts performance due to the weak memory controller.
