hello out there,
I intend to buy an x1800xt, but I am not totally sure yet. main thing that worries me is its alleged noise. :?
so my burning question is: is it possible to run such a card on a constantly lowered fan speed, if one reduced the voltage and maybe the gpu frequency a bit??
anyone has information/links about the benefit of lowering temps/volts in terms of reduced heat?
I am willing to take a little performance hit as long as the gpu will be kept cool enough even with lowered fan speeds.
thanks in advance.
p.s. english isnt my native tongue, so this posting took me like 20 minutes...
