eVGA GTX 460 768MB Superclocked Review

For testing today we decided to take a slightly different approach. KitGuru believes that one of the best value for money processors right now is the 6 core AMD 1055T.

We have spent some time showing you how to get 3.7ghz out of it (without extra voltage) so our mid range system will be based around it.

We will be focusing on 1920×1200 and 1920×1080 (1080p) resolutions today, which is ideal for the target audience.

All the latest bios updates and drivers are used during testing. We perform under real world conditions, meaning KitGuru test all games across five closely matched runs and average out the results to get an accurate median figure. We mix and match various games across our reviews to try and keep our regular readers interested – no one wants to see the same handful of games used in every review.
