The GTX 460 has blown me away with its combination of price, performance, lack of noise, and low temperatures. The last two things were big issues I had with the GTX 480 and 470, and they seem to be solved with the 460, even when running them in SLI. The fact that GTX 460 in SLI is faster, cooler, and draws less power than a single GTX 480, is pretty great.
The question now is when are we going to see the next nVidia refresh that brings that same balance of performance and efficiency to their $400+ cards. I'm almost tempted to sell my GTX 285 and get a pair of GTX 460 in SLI, but I also know that a single card solution that is at least as fast and as energy efficient is coming. It has to, I just haven't heard a peep about nVidia's roadmap on any of the major tech sites.
Any links I might have missed? Thanks in advance.
