    7950GX2 1Gb DDR3 Vs HD2900XT 1GB DDR4

    Ya I am keeping the 2900XT, it really is a good card, me thinks, only it is so loud when it gets hot. I'm thinking of Purchasing the Cooler Master Duo Viva, and when I can find one, also get the Cooler Master Glacier 600 for my GPU.

    Ya I have been told that whatever memory speed I read, I actually double, therfore making it 2000Mhz. The lower clock speeds are my 2D clocks as Ceewi1 pointed out. I didn't know quite as much as you have just informed me of, and for this new found knowledge, I thank you.

    How Loud is your Computer

    I Voted loud, tho usually I would say that it's not too loud at all actually, I have a stock cooler from an X2 6000+, 1x120mm, 2x80mm, and an AOpen 530Watt, which has three 80mm fans, none of which make the largest of noises. The thing is I have an ATi HD2900XT with stock cooler(I have to change...

    Well my card, is showing lower clock speeds, then what is claimed(501 instead of 740ish-core clock, and 514 instead of 1000 Memory clock), this is what is showing up in the ATi Catalyst Control Centre.

    7950GX2 1Gb DDR3 Vs HD2900XT 1GB DDR4

    I need a little persuasion here, I currently have an ATi HD2900XT, which is very good but I seem to be having problems with it, I have tried a Cooler Master Real Power 750Watt PSU, and the card doesn't report the claimed speeds. When I have One PCIe connector plugged in to the card, I get a...

    Thanks Ceewi1, I tried out a Cooler Master Etreme Power 650Watt, still the same results, with my video card. So I took it back and tested the Cooler Master Real Power 750Watt, what an extremely awesome Power supply, the cost was R1250, as opposed to the R699 for the Extreme power, and about R400...

    Well I use http://www.pricecheck.co.za they show you all the internet vendors, and their prices. Have you checked out the iSonic? Might still go for it, unless you think otherwise. Unlike my current PSU it has 2x6 pin PCIe connectors on the PSU, which is quite nifty I think.

    Well look, I'm based in South africa. I'm going to be selling my PSu to a friend for R300(South African Rands). The iSonic is R379 at the cheapest internet Vendor plus P&P. I unfortunately can't spend much more. If there is something better for not much more, and that can run the HD2900XT then...

    9600GT SLI vs HD3870 X2

    Wow, that's really impressive! 82% increase??? that's really good. Is this the same for all cards? I haven't seen an SLi or Crossfire PC in action yet. Is the Two cards option better than one of the same value?
