Well even defining it in dB isn´t going to be more objective, different
people experience "noise" differently. So I just gave a general tip that
the
5700 is ecperienced noisier than other crds be a lot of people...
I can´t comment on the "40 mm ball-bearing fans..." seeing as I have no
idea of
how it sounds :)

so you might want to watch out with that one.
Demian,
Define noise in dB. Louder than the hum of 40mm ball-bearing fans
evacuating several 450W PSes?

Re: Nvidia cards?

The FX 5700 Ultra GDDR3 is cheap, has better features than the GeForce 4
series and a good performance for the money. But for 200$ you will
already get a 5900. And maybe in July you will get for the same money
the 5950. Other GeForce cards below 200$ I would not recommend.
