Comment: The MSI Hawk is a great card which retails for a price that will ensure mass market appeal. Granted, the voltage read points will be completely pointless for the vast majority of consumers but all of the other features just add to its already outstanding value.

Comment: From a performance standpoint, it's impossible to argue with the numbers this card puts up, at its price point. This is almost a 5850-class card.

Comment: MSI's GeForce GTX 460 HAWK is rock solid version of a factory overclocked GTX 460 card. Thanks to MSI's clock speeds of 781 MHz GPU and 900 Memory memory, the card delivers about 10% more performance than a reference design GTX 460 with 1 GB of memory.

A great card for the price, if you buy it with rebates. I am running mine one a 460W Enermax PSU, but be careful with power, as If you do not have a good quality PSU, 460W might not be enough. (Read More)

super great value at $134.99 CAD (after mail in rebate and instant rebate) they are going for $120 used on craigslist. good enough for occasional gaming or someone on a bugdet who wants to have a super reliable gpu that can be pushed to the limits and not break the next day like XFX does. and it's msi, so it's automatically good to begin with.

This card is a rockstar as soon as you get it install the MSI afterburner utility and go from 780mhz to 1k on air without making changes to voltage! runs Entropia Universe "CE2" really well with physx settings pinned, most video settings on High and a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080. E6750, ddr2800 2x2gb, I will buy another one once I upgrade my mobo to something SLI. Unless its DOA you will be more then happy with this video card, it will even kiss you on the forehead and tuck you in at night. (Read More)

This card is great it runs everything great on my screen which is 1080p and plays battlefield with almost all settings on high and i can tell you the game looks amazing and plays very smooth with this car powering it. THis being one of the lesser expensive gtx 460's at least when i bought makes it an exceptional value since this card over clocks well and the thermal solution keeps it very cool. (Read More)

Already owned one of these cards since January of this year and decided to buy a second one to use it in sli. The duo worked fine for 3 weeks till this card died. Luckily, NCIX was decent enough to exchange my dead card for a new one. So far my replacement card has been working well in sli. Overall, quite happy with my setup. (Read More)
