Richard, Nick, Pedro, & the Freesurfers,
I am looking at choice of the lower end fermi cards and I was wondering if you could comment of Freesurfer's ability to take advantage of some seldom used functions included in nVidia GTX 400 (including tesselation) that were stripped down from nVidia GF104 chipset.
GeForce GTX 465 has the "original" nVidia GTX 400 chip and GeForce GTX 460 has the "revised" GF104 chipset. Some claim that the revision in the chipset is geared towards cheaper manufacturing. Unfortunately benchmarks for those cards are usually aimed at gaming performance that is not of my interest.
