I haven't kept up with new video cards for a while, but I'm planning on getting a smaller
PC chassis, and installing cooler/quieter components.
Although I don't do any gaming, I purchased a hd3850 a year back because it had very acceptable
performance, and I thought it would last me a while.
Turns out it was overkill for anything I would ever need a gpu for in the next 4 years,
and the card runs a little hotter than I'd like.
I'm looking for low power consumption, large/slow fans(or passively cooled), and most importantly, stable.. -stable- drivers. Something that maybe I could get a fair trade on my 3850 for.
As long as the card can handle games like WoW on a 24" without a problem, Its good to go.
Suggestions will be very appreciated.
