Which card will run hotter?

[Mloot]

I want to upgrade my Radeon 7000 pci 32mb ddr (no AGP slot). I will either be purchasing a 9000 PCI or an MX440 PCI. My pc is a microtower with only 2 fans inside, and little room for anything else. The Powercolor 9000 pci is supposed to have a heatsink only, whereas I can get a MX440 with a cooling fan. If I did not change the stock fans, which card would cause more heat buildup in my case? The 7000 has only a heatsink, and seems to be ok. And do radeons run cooler than Nvidias? Any help would be appreciated.

Well the cooling fan of 440mx will do the trick for you

440mx generaly build greater heat due to it high clock speed tha ati7000

but in the presence of a heat sink(no problem)

ati new cards usually heats up greater than nvidia coz of high voltage

:Q(hehehe)
