Gf2 Pro decisions..

[TeCHnIc]

Alrighty I've come down to the decision of either a;

Asus v7700 Gf2 32mb ddr
MSI MS-8820 Gf2 32mb ddr w/ tv out

Price is within 4 bucks of each card so that isn't the consideration.. what I am wondering about is personal pref's with either asus or msi. Is one generally better then the other? When looking at the msi site their pics showed no heatsinks on the gpu unit - is this true??

Thanks for any input

I would skip both of them and go with the Gainward model it has better 2D quality.

Would be nice but my option is limited to these two cards only. Not everyone lives in the usa 😛

The MSI board has TV-Out, but the Asus board has temperature monitoring (I think? someone correct me if I'm wrong)... neither of them have particularly good 2D visual quality.
Performance should be virtually identical of course.
