I am looking to upgrade from my 9800gt. I am displeased with the 9800gt since I can't seem to find a way to control the fan speed properly. Something internal to the card overrides RivaTuner and after 70*c it goes into auto mode and doesn't ramp up to 100% until 92*c. I could get another cooler for it but would rather just go with a better card.
My mobo is a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P and it supports X-fire. What would be the best bang for my buck in the $300 range? I am not stuck on Nvidia. I'm almost thinking ATI if I decide to go xfire in the future. Suggestions on cards in my price range?
Edit - I would also like a card that is fully configurable. No auto low level stuff where it stays in 2d mode and something I can accurately control the fans on without the card taking over.
Thanks,
Aaron
