Damn... I just spend the money on a 27" Crossover monitor. This poor GTX460 is going to be screaming in pain when I put 1.2v in it....

It didn't go up. It's just sold out on amazon but somebody on the amazon marketplace is selling them and obviously he's trying to make a nice profit on it.

While the Gigabyte clearly has superior cooling, it does not seem to have superior overclocking vs. other models, including reference.
