Geforce FX test - needs a lot of power

Post by jojo4u » Sun Jan 26, 2003 11:32 am

Tecchannel.de has tested a Geforce FX. 75W power under load! This one must be noisy as hell. I am happy with my Geforce 2 Mx :-)

It is pretty fast .. but 75w is just disgusting.

Hence the heatsink (if you could call it that...more like a 70 Dba cooling monstrosity)

Plus, it's sucking air from where it'll be putting out the hot air. How effective...
It would have been better to suck air in from the case.
