I was wondering since this thing has 2 fans on it is it loud? I currently have a Radeon 9800PRO and in some games i play (horizons and EQ) there are these white lines that appear in front of me were the textures meet in the game. So im thinking of taking it back and buying BFG Asylum 5900 and saving some money. I was just curious if the fans on this card were loud or not?!?

Thanks

The fans will run slower in 2D mode and speed up in 3D mode. Doesn't really matter if its noisy while playing a 3D game. Its in 2D that the noise would bother me. But, everyone is different.

I had this card for a little while. Nice card and no it wasn't too loud or at least it wasn't annoying. My ti4200 has a very annoying high pitched whine.

The noise isn't too bad, and by using two fans, they can actually have them spin slower (thus quieter). If it lights your fire, the fans do have blue LEDs on them.
