Thanks to its high overclocking potential the MSI GTX 460 Hawk is actually a competitive alternative to the GTX 470. AMD releasing the new Radeon 6870 has shaken things up a bit, however. We test whether the Hawk can stand its ground. MSI is trying to...

With the launch of NVIDIA’s GTX 560 Ti, many thought that the GTX 460 1GB would go quietly into the night but that hasn’t quite happened. This card has gained a new lease on life with a lower price point and products like MSI’s Hawk Edition have conti...
Some of you may remember that a few years ago MSI was in a bit of a funk. Their products didn’t really stand out as unique when compared to their competition, the prices weren’t particularly attractive and availability was slim at best. In the past 18...

When we first looked at the GTX460 in Issue 116, we immediately knew that NVIDIA was on a winner. The GF104 core, based on a heavily revised Fermi architecture, is like cracking open a cool can of drink on a sweltering day – and it’s certainly refreshi...

I'll admit I was a little harsh on the HAWK in . I felt that while the GTX 460 HAWK from MSI was a very nice card, it wasn't anything that really wowed us. And yes, while the cooler is fantastic, the most important thing for so many people is the pe...
The fastest GTX 460 and the best valued video card we've tested to date. That is the GTX 460 HAWK. We had so hoped to get to that magical 1GHz core clock; we could get Vantage running, but we would freeze up in the first benchmark. Really, we should...

The HAWK series from MSI is relatively quite a new one. To date we've only seen one model come through from the company that carries with it the label and that was the HD 5770. To date it's still one of, if not the best HD 5770 we've used. MSIs eye...
The HAWK version of the GTX 460 doesn't carry with it the same weight as the HD 5770 version did when we looked at it. The main reason for this is that since launch we've seen companies offer us big OC models out of the box straight away. The leg up...
