Cool PCIe graphic card?
Posted: Thu Oct 27, 2016 10:55 pm
Hey, there!
I'm still searching for a "new" old PCIe graphic card with two DVI outs. It have to be quiet, cool and Win7 proof. Don't mind active or passive... At the moment I use WinXP, and don't want to change soon, but who knows. This is my board: GIGABYTE_GA-EP45-UD3R http://www.gigabyte.de/products/product ... id=2921#ov
I used Nvidia GT8600 256 MB passive, but it runs @80°C nearby my Scope ;( I tested Nvidia GT8500 256 MB (passive, runs @ 60°C) but have just one DVI (the second one is VGA). Nvidia FX 1800 768 MB is active (with a small fan) but relatively quiet and runs @ 40-50 C° BUT it have just one Dual-DVI. It seems that DVI splitters don't work here - I tested one now. The FX1800 has two Display Ports - but I just want real DVI, not the connectors/adapters/etc ...
Any Ideas?
Is thinking about the passive Nvidia NVS cards... May 440? Get they very warm? Any one is using them?
Cheers, Andreas
