which x1950?

[kenji]

Hmm, Can't decide. It's between these two cards:

powercolor x1950xt 512mb

powercolor x1950 PRO SCS3 256mb
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131052

I need a quiet card with VIVO.
So these are the only real options ~260 or less. I hate to pay any more.. I'll probably build a new system in 6-12 months with quadcore, dx10, etc.

Also the card has to power a 24inch ws, running at 1920x1200

want to make sure it'll be able to do that without problems.

The case it's going in will be very well cooled. I might even duct air front->vidcard->back in order to keep it that way.

Thanks in advance for comments. I'd go with an nvidia if they offered more vivo cards.

Forget the vivo crap, just get a 320mb geforce 8800GTS.
