GeForce GTX 460 Review
GeForce GTX 460 is a high-end GPU based on the 40nm Fermi architecture.
It's based on the Fermi GF104 Core and offers 336 Shader Processing Units, 56 TMUs and 32 ROPs, on 256-bit memory interface of fast GDDR5. The central unit runs at 675MHz and the memory clock operates at 900MHz.
Most modern demanding games will run at the highest settings using a 1080p resolution. However, some will require reduced settings to be played optimally.

Note: GeForce GTX 460 has many variants available. This is the standard version.

you might experience some cpu bottleneck here but the biggest problem is your PSU, since your cpu uses 60w stock with OC its about 80w or so plus HDDs/fans ect will add up to about 100w plus this GPU which consumes 160w it totals 260w on 12v rail but 22A on 12v rail is 264w(which is really close). it is not advisable cuz aging psu is another factor. i'd recommend something like a GTX 650ti which only consumes 80w and slightly faster than this

thanks for your really excelent informative advise, so you think GTX 650ti with my cpu would be ok? i dont wona change my cpu also, becouse when i play games like gtaIV and i mac out, it lags, but when i minimize and look at task meneger my cpu is about 85-90% loaded but it still lags, so that;s why i wonna change my gpu, with such that wont bottleneck. i;ll look for GTX 650ti more closely and see what will happen.

GTX650ti with your cpu is great on most games(but for the most cpu intesive ones).I recommend this cpu is because in games with lots of physics involved(also the cpu intensive ones) can be done by the GPU(advance Physx)
thus lowering chances bottleneck
