    Hey all! I've been sifting through a lot of card review sites and I've noticed that most, if not all, only deal with desktop graphics cards. I've tried using the wikipedia article listing all nVidia graphics cards to find an equivelant but I'm not sure how to reliably compare the two cards.

    So my question is, what is the most equivelant desktop video card for a GTX 460M notebook card?

    Somewhere right around GTS 450.

    Well it will depend on the game.

    The GTX460M is actually a fully unlocked chip so if a game is ROP limited it would be faster.
