Best silent video card, november 09
Posted: Sun Nov 08, 2009 3:49 pm
I am about to order parts for my new computer, and as I am trying to get it as silent as possible, I would like to know which card is the best silent option right now.
I would really like a ATI 5850 with for instance an Accelero S1 Rev 2 with a Nexus Real Silent 120mm fan at 5v, but I am not sure if it'll get too hot.
Another option would be to buy the passive cooled Gigabyte ATI 4850, but I would prefer a low-power card.
I am not much of a gamer, but I play occasionally, and as I am going to use this computer for 3-4 years, I would rather spend the extra bucks now, and get something that lasts maybe a half or a full year more.
What is your opinions regarding the best silent video card on the market right now?
