Thanks very much for the help - I am now debating going for this one - seems to pack a lot of punch for the price... http://scan.co.uk/Products/ProductIn...oductID=589459

same punch...less money
might be more nosiey tho..
That seems quite a high price for a card with only 12 streams?
It's nvidia but wouldn't this be about the same for less.

This the card i have at mo, passive cooling on this very good and overclocks well. I get 690/1720
Hi - yes that was my concern as well - all my other components will give me a pretty quiet PC. According to the reviews it copes well and the noise is well not there! :)
whoops posts got mixed - now that does look good and pretty similar stats as well - interesting that its back to the 7600, which is where my journey began!
Hi gha128,
Thought you might like to take a look at this
It'll show you what performance difference you can expect between the cards.
Hope it helps
Thanks frosty - what a great site! Quite a difference between the 2 cards - glad I went with the ATI in the end
Yeah, be careful which stats you compare when looking at cards. The 1950 pro is considerably more powerful than the 7600gt! Stick to 3d mark ratings or similar if you can find them...or benchs from specific games. Ofc, always bear in mind how well a card with overclock too. eg a 7900gs can be a better choice than a 1950 pro if not fussed about noise or stressing hardware, but at stock, the 1950pro is a much better card.
its all relative :P
hope building goes well!
