Can any one remember the name of the website that has a really good comparison chart for vid cards, not that stupid toms one, but its on another site and you can select 2 video cards and get the specs and details for them, it is widely known.

I need to go there, but i have totally forgotten the url, someone here must know it.

cheers
 
Yea, i think that is thge one, but the compare part of the site has a syntax error or sql error or something, but that is the site that i was thinking of, cheers dude ;)
 
Mike has been fiddling with the site lately. Please excuse us if something is working correctly.
It should be fixed soon because Mike usually does not leave things broken for long.

I noticed this. A work around:
Go to Card Database. Find one of the cards you want to compare. Click on it's link.
When that page loads, click the drop down for "Compare this card to" and find your 2nd card.
Takes you to that nice card comparison page then just as if clicking that other link.
Dunno why it blows up when you click the first one.

I am not sure if we can do this but eventually I would like the site to be able to compare two
specific retail cards. Say a XFX 7900 GTX compared to an Evga 7900 GTX. The comparison
would show all the data we have on both cards including noise level (0-5) and dual card (y or n).

Yeah that is the old way of comparing the cards. It looks like Mike is making a new way, but
left the old way there for now.

That would certainly be awesome. Where would you get all the data from though? Independant sites, or what? Heck, where do you get all your data now? :p

We get all our data from the manufacturers site, video card reviews and our eyes. We have
seen so many cooling solutions that we can look at one and assign it a number.

0 is for anything without a fan.
1 is for a very small low RPM fan.
2 is for a medium higher RPM fan or a Zalman heatsink/fan. We are seeing a few manuf using Zalman now.
3 is the "normal" noise by made by a stock cooler.
4 or 5 is for a cooling solution that is considered to be loud. Like the X1900 XTX stock cooler.
 
Sorry about the downtime. I made some subtle changes and forgot to test the page with no cards selected. It's all taken care of now.

The ability to compare retail cards is coming soon.

And as for how we get all our data...well I have written a relatively complex program to gather information about video cards from the manufacturers websites. Between that and mentok and I just constantly jamming data in by hand, we have around 3500 retail cards in the database and something like 470 reference cards.

If you guys have any other features you'd like to see on the site, feel free to drop me a line here or on my forums.

I'd be willing to add a position on your staff as "Data finder and enterer." :p. Or, really, anything you need/want help with. I don't get into many projects anymore, and I'm itching for one like woah. ;)
