They make noise, too.

Suggestion for a quiet yet semi-powerful graphic card?

Post by ruffdmx99 » Mon Feb 01, 2010 9:42 pm

Can anyone suggest a quiet graphic card on the market right now? Currently I have the EVGA 260 GT and it is producing more noise than I anticipated it would produce.

Keep in mind that I've tried after market silent cooling solutions and majority of them turned out to be pretty crappy in terms of fitting. So I am open to specific cards with a combination of a after market cooler that fits.

BTW, price is not an option.

The VaporX version of the HD5770 is supposed to be pretty good and should perform pretty close to the GTX260.

Nice and quiet and more than I need to run my games at 2560x1600. Note I do not have any of the latest and most demanding games.
