NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460: quick answers
Will the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 run 2027 games?
Of the 19 upcoming games whose publishers have named a graphics card, it meets the recommended card for 0, only the minimum for 1, and falls short of 18.
Is 1 GB of VRAM enough?
It is below what many recent releases expect, so plan on lower texture settings.
What power supply do I need for the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460?
It is rated at 160 W. With the rest of a typical gaming PC and headroom for power spikes, a good 500 W unit is a safe choice; the PSU calculator works it out for your exact parts.
Is the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 faster than the AMD Radeon HD 6870?
No. The AMD Radeon HD 6870 scores 4/100 against 3/100 in our index.
