NVIDIA AIB - Point of View - has joined the bandwagon to offer factory-overclocked graphics solutions, lifting the lid on its new Point of View TGT Series.

Signalling a coming-together of the TGT Tuning team - led by Wolfram Tismer, of former EVGA Europe fame - and Point of View, the new range of Fermi powered solutions are described as being hand selected fusions of BIOS tuning and, in the case of GTX 460 offerings, proprietary hardware design. Members of the family from the newly-founded stable, boast increases in overclocking efficiency of up-to 85%, it is claimed.

The labour-of-love doesn't quite end there however. A 'comprehensive burn-in test' of each Point of View TGT Series part is undertaken to deliver quality and stability - apparently even beyond the factory-overclocked settings - to deliver a perfect harmony of speed and performance.

NVIDIA's GTX 460, GTX 470 and GTX 480 offerings have been harnessed into 'Charged' and 'Ultra Charged' SKUs, with water-cooled editions to follow in due course. On the subject of cooling, it is suggested that both 'Charged' and 'Ultra Charged' ranges, retain the use of the standard cooling solution.

In the GTX 460 line-up, 'Charged' editions are delivered with clock speeds of 780MHz and 3,800MHz for core and memory speeds, respectively, whilst 'Ultra Charged' flavours come in at 820MHz and 4,000MHz, for the same speed categories.

Moving over to the GTX 470 medley, 'Charged' edition core speeds come in at 650MHz with 'Ultra Charged' edition speeds, bounding in at 680MHz. Memory speeds on both SKUs, clock in at 3,500MHz.

Last, but not least, the GTX 480 is seasoned with memory speeds of 3,800MHz and, clock speeds of 730MHz and 760MHz for the 'Charged' and 'Ultra Charged' editions, respectively.

Shipping with a 3-year warranty, Point of View TGT Series solutions should be available shortly, yet information regarding the pricing-premium when compared to reference parts, hasn't been made available at the time of going to press.
