KFA2 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 WHDI Is The World’s First Wireless Graphics Card

By Andrew Liszewski

The one downside to today’s ridiculously powerful graphics cards is that they require a lot of cooling to keep their GPUs running at peak efficiency. And if your tower happens to be sitting on your desk right next to your display, it just adds to the annoying white noise you have to deal with.

KFA2’s new GTX 460 though lets you stash your tower up to 100 feet away since it’s the first graphics card with built-in WHDI which wirelessly sends an uncompressed 1080P, 60Hz signal to the included WHDI receiver connected to your display. You’ll of course need a wireless mouse and keyboard to complete the setup, but it seems like a particularly great solution for an HTPC since you don’t need to have it running alongside the TV in your living room.
