    Between the TF3 and Dual-X coolers which do you prefer? I know that the TF3 is great at keeping cards cool but does it still sound like a jet engine above 60% speed like the older versions?

    Looking for a 7950 (or 7870) for particular needs

    I don't plan on overclocking or water cooling ever. Am I missing something with the MSI 7950 Boost? It's listed as having lower base clock speeds than last year's OC version. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127667 If I don't plan on overclocking and water cooling...

    Would you go with the Gigabyte 7950 Windforce 3 card over the Sapphire? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125414 I've heard good things about WF3 and the warranty is longer.

    IceQ 7870 Fan Rattle

    I take it you have never dealt with HIS tech support. I don't want to RMA the card which is exactly what they will tell me to do. If it's a un-lubricated bearing I would rather try and fix it myself. However I have no experience working with the radial blowers they use in the IceQ cards.

    IceQ 7870 Fan Rattle

    I've had this card ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... ) since October of last year and within a week it started clicking. The clicking was very slow and on some days it wouldn't happen at all. About a month after that it got to the point where it would not only click...
