Why It Mattered

GeForce GTX 460 belongs to the Fermi and GeForce 400 Series era around 2010, when PC graphics cards varied heavily by bus, memory chips, BIOS, cooler, and display outputs. Tracking the exact model helps retro builders distinguish period-correct boards from similarly named variants.
