Howdy folks...

Yeah, I am an ATI owner (And Nvidia) and I'm looking for upgrade for
myself and a friend... him more than me at this time.

The results seems that the $400 6800GT is a KICK ASS card...

I usually go with MSI (My 5900) as their cooling systems tend to be
VERY silent.... I cant hear mine.

So what are your personal opinions or site reviews that have SOUND
tests?

And the GTVersion is still a power hog? Looking at a 400watt PSU for
it...

My 9800Pro is almost silent (perhaps the louset thing in my case) and
my MSI 5900 is even better...

Hmmm... okay... But hows the rest of your system? Some cases with
4-6 fans are loud... hell, some are loud with just one!

What brand is the card you bought?

I just swapped my 320 Enermax "noise taker" to the 420~460 model (dont
remember - its not in the case yet).
