----------------------------------- aiolos Mon 05 Feb, 2007 Video card statistics ----------------------------------- If you're interested in what video cards people are using you can check out the steam statistics. It's only for steam-powered gamed (HL2, Sin, CS etc) but the sample is about a million pc's so it's quite acurate. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=85691 ----------------------------------- pakigang Mon 05 Feb, 2007 ----------------------------------- nVidia rules! I own a 7900GT. I think the 7xxx series was popular because it was cool & quiet boxed compared to ATI even though ATI's solution was faster but noisier as compared. ----------------------------------- aiolos Tue 06 Feb, 2007 Re: Video card statistics ----------------------------------- The X1950 series is noisy as hell. I also have a 7900GT but it's much noisier than the 7800 I had before. All 7900Gt's have the same shitty small fan that makes a lot of noise despite running at only 40%. I have a spare 120mm fan and I'm thinking about using that to cool the card. EDIT : And here's ATI's new R-600 dustbuster ... err I mean video card. This should be louder than nVidia's 5xxx series ! http://overclockers.com/articles1411/
