Roundup: Affordable GF100

Nvidia has officially unveiled its latest Fermi GF100 derivative, the GTX 465. Featuring 352 CUDA Cores and support for DirectX 11, PhysX, SLI, CUDA and 3D Vision Surround, the new GTX 465 is also the most affordable GF100 based graphics card with it US $279 price tag.

As noted, the GTX 465 features 352 CUDA Cores and works at 607MHz for the core and 1215MHz for the shaders. It has 1GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 3206MHz and paired up with a 256-bit memory interface. The card still needs two 6-pin PCI-Express power connectors and has a 200W TDP. The new GTX 465 looks a lot like the GTX 470 and it still uses the dual-slot cooler and feature two dual-DVI and an HDMI output.

The performance of the GTX 465 is far from being impressive as in most tests it is placed somewhere in between the Radeon HD 5830 and Radeon HD 5850. The card still deals nicely with DirectX 11 tessellation, as it is something that Nvidia's GF100 GPUs are really good at.

In addition to the good tessellation performance, Nvidia will certainly advertise PhysX, CUDA and 3D Vision as key advantages of the GTX 465. Despite its sub-$300 price tag, GTX 465 still leaves a sour after taste when compared to AMD's Radeon HD 5830 and 5850.
