It seems the specifications have now changed for the GTX460:

The default core clockspeeds are higher but the memory bandwidth is lower.

It seems the EVGA GTX460 cards now shipping are the V2 versions which use a 192 bit memory controller. They seem to be based on the GF114 AFAIK.
I'd guess it's just to shift old inventory before they drop Kepler based midrange parts. Asyemmtric memory configuration isn't exactly new - this is what they did with the 550Ti after all.
Hmmm, nvidia's card shenannigans just gets better. According to the geforce site they're currently selling a GTX560Ti OEM version, which has 352 cuda cores and a 320bit memory interface - that's as oppose to a 560 Ti (384cores/256bit), and the 560Ti 448 (448cores/320bit). They also have the 560 (336cores/256bits) vs the 560 (OEM) (384cores/320bit), and the 555 (OEM) (288cores/192bit). Obviously clock speeds are all over the place to try to account for the odd suggested performance (e.g. the 560 OEM is very low clocked compared to the 560 Ti). AFAICT NVIDIA are harvesting Fermi cores and then generating random numbers to release them under...![]()
Yeah haven't they already released 630/640/650 etc. parts to OEM which are just rebranded 5 series ?
Not quite. Some of the lower end 6x0 cards are kepler, some are fermi, and there's no logic to which is which. There's a reasonable hexus article about it from a couple of weeks back. Basically it's even more of a nightmare than nvidia's usual card-naming shenanigans...
