>
NVIDIA 3D Vision Surround Ready
Expand your games across three displays in full stereoscopic 3D for the ultimate "inside the
game" experience with the power of NVIDIA 3D Vision and SLI technologies. NVIDIA 3D
Vision Surround also supports triple screen gaming with non-stereo displays.
NVIDIA 3D Version surround requires (1) specific drivers released by NVIDIA, (2) two or
more graphic cards in NVIDIA SLI configuration, (3) 3D vision glasses, and (4) three
identical displays in support of 3D version. See www.nvidia.com/surround for more
information.

AFR(Alternate frame Rendering) for the world's premier gaming solution under Windows 7
with solid, state-of-the-are drivers.
>
PCI Express 2.0 Support
Designed for the new PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture offering the highest data transfer
speeds for the most bandwidth-hungry games and 3D applications, while maintaining
backwards compatibility with existing PCI Express motherboards for the broadest support.
>
DirectCompute and OpenCL Support
Full support for DirectCompute and OpenCL.
>
32x Anti-aliasing Technology
Lightning fast, high-quality anti-aliasing at up to 32x sample rates obliterates jagged edges.
>

HAWK Features
>
Triple Over Voltage (by Afterburner)
The World's First graphics card supports voltage adjustment of GPU, Memory, and PLL by
Afterburner. With more options to adjust, the maximum performance of GTX 460 can be
totally unleashed!
>
7+1 Phase PWM Design
N460GTX Hawk uses 7+1 Phase PWM design which increases the maximum current value
up to 120A. With extra 30A current output, overclocking power capability of N460GTX Hawk
will be largely improved!
>
Military Class Components
MSI graphics cards adopt the high quality components that meet the Military Class standard,
ensuring the best stability, longest life span, and no buzz noise under full load.
>
V-Check Points
V-Check point is the overclocker's favorite. Use MultiMeter to read the exact GPU and
Memory voltage value from the V-Check points directly.
>
Dual PWM Fans
Dual Ultra Quiet fans provide 50% better thermal efficiency and direct airflow to cool down
GPU, memory, and power module at once.
>
Multiple Heatpipes
Multiple Heatpipes can transfer heat much faster to the fins under the dual PWM fans, and
the fans dissipate heat directly from the fins.
>
High-Density Heatsink
Ultra high-density aluminum heatsink has large area for heat dissipation. Heat of GPU will
be dissipated to each fin equally.
>
Nickel-plated Copper base
Large copper based coated with nickel provides the fastest heat dissipation and the bigger
contact area with GPU.
>
Direct Contact Design
Copper base, heasink and heatpipe are all connected together and directly contacted,
creating the shortest path to dissipate the heat of GPU and to improve cooling efficiency.
