Hi all, nice to find your great forum. My question is about Sparkle GeForce GTS 450 passively cooled model and Gigabyte Radeon HD5770 Silent cell model. I found these two passively cooled graphic cards quite identical in heat productions against performance, also the prices are close to each other. This might just be the right forum to ask which one to choose for a quiet HTPC / light gaming build?
- Overclocking cababilities?
- Setting up to SLI/CrossfireX (heat issue?)
- Lenght of gigabyte's card (fitting issues?)
I wrote some basic information (with images) to my blog about Silent & Quiet HTPC at http://silenssimo.blogspot.com/ and I'd really like to have opinions and links to reviews to pick up the right card for my next HTPC build. Please advice me with your knowledge / experience either here or by commenting the blog text.
