Hi all,

Looking for the quietest 6800GT AGP. No hair-dryers in my quiet PC,
please! Any thoughts?

Thanks,
RM

I like them loud the louder the better it keeps the bugs away.

The dustbusters went away with the FX5800. The FX5900 was much quieter, as
are the Geforce6 series.

I suggest LeadTek Winfast 6800GT. It's got a larger-than-normal fan (so it
spins at a lower speed), with a mesh grille to keep the dust out.

Pretty much any 6800GT can be outfitted with an Arctic Cooling NV Silencer,
which is nearly inaudible but cools very well.

Ehh, isn't this completely depended of the card manufacturer... Palit
GF6600GT certainly isn't quiet.

It's all a matter of perspective. Put the Palit 6600GT next to a reference
FX5800 and you'll see a world of difference.

Got the Leadtek 6600 GT Agp. It was fairly quiet. But i bought a
Zalman V700 Cooler and now its silent.

And the Cooler cools realy realy great.

Hope this helps.

/PS Its alittle bit of a bitch to put on but once on its great.

Bye.
