The Ti4600 is, along with the Ti4400, released on 6 February 2002. A massive, fast and expensive 3D-card with good performance.
Leadtek's version of the Ti4600 comes with a large heatsink. It's working well with a low noise-level (just like GeForce2/3 cards from Leadtek). Unfortunately Leadtek started using lower quality parts on the GeForce 4 Ti cards. See the photo's and take a look at the green capacitors (cylinder shaped) that aren't flat anymore.
nVidia released the cheaper (but quite fast and popular) Ti 4200 in April 2002. Newer versions with AGP8x support and a NV28-core appeared months later. The GeForce 4 Ti didn't really need AGP8x as AGP4x offers enough bandwidth. However, the Ti 4200 AGP8x has faster memory so it does perform a tad better. > Read more
