thanks guys, i guess its gonna be the x1900xt. il probly go with either ati or asus brand, as i have had experience with both of them and no problems.
a quick question, its a 2 slot cooler, should I get a vf900 heatsink to replace it ? (I want a quiet comp and it would be nice if it cooled better)
the last time I was in the market for a videocard was back when the first 2 slot cards were released by nvidia, the invamous 5 series (aka vacuum) have the coolers improved a lot in noise and efficiency?
