Hi.
1) What's the difference between the x8xx series and the 1xxx from Ati? I thought an x800 would be an old model and the x1600 + would be the new ones. Is the difference simply that the 1000 series have HDR? x850 has more than double the framerates of x1600 etc.
2) I'm choosing between an nVidia 7900GT and an x1900GT. The 7900 is slightly more expensive, but seems to have better performance. What are the other differences between them? Which one is noisiest and runs hotter?
Thanks for any help.
