3D Performance

The fact that KFA's card is a stock GTX 460 with WHDI technology baked in suggests that 3D performance will be in line with any other stock-clocked card carrying the same GPU.

Just to make sure, we ran a couple of benchmarks on an Intel Sandy Bridge platform with a Core i5 2500K processor, 8GB of DDR3 memory and the latest set of NVIDIA/AMD drivers to see where the card fits in:

No surprises here. As expected, KFA's WHDI graphics card - in terms of 3D performance - is practically the same as a stock-clocked GeForce GTX 460 1GB. That means comfortable 1080p gaming with medium-to-high image quality.

And, as you might have hoped, the GPU has plenty of overclocking headroom, too. We've seen GTX 460s go way beyond NVIDIA's reference levels in the past, and this KFA card is no exception - hitting a stable 825MHz on the core and 4,200MHz on memory without an increase in voltage.
