Nope depends on what the GTX 460 uses,
if it requires a 1.4a spec the normal HDMI's wont work...
I learnt this the hard way with my GTX 580.
Check out one of my older threads : "Not all HDMI cables are created Equal."

^^ Just buy one that says "High Speed" or 1.4a

...even local ones at croma work great as long as they are High Speed ones...

...atleast read the link I posted you will not ask this anymore....

High Speed are not always 1.4 they simply mean they support 1080p while standard HDMI cables have restriction of 720p and 1080i
