I heard they dont need as much "juice" as they run at 60w or 60 somit.

I have a Jeantech PSU 450.dunker said:i was patient and ordered the HIS 1950pro agp card that might not be here til the end of January but i already have a 6800gt and really enjoying CoH right now with it
if i could'nt play my fav games at the mo (GTR2 and CoH) i'd prolly grab the 512mb sapphire 1950pro and get a quieter cooler for it at the same time, the acellero? i guess. some ppl have said the pcie version of it is'nt noisy and some have so that usually means it is. if you do go for a 1950pro make sure your psu is a quality unit not some no-name thing that came in the case as they need a lot of juice i've been reading.
Thanks for the drivers tip.melbourne720 said:I always go for the latest NVidia drivers. Could you post you 3d mark scores when you run them? Quite a few people are in your upgrade situation...
Fallen Hero said:Thanks for the drivers tip.
Yes, I'll have a go with those 3d mark scores. (if I can work out how it's done )
melbourne720 said:Nice one - enjoy. Your previous card was a geforce 4 mx, yes? Hold onto your seat, and order those new pants now...
Fallen Hero said:is this a good card for Company of Heroes and the like. I have 1 gib of ram and a P4 3ghz. I use a 17'' monitor. I will mainly be playing and buying older games, Dawn Of War, Quake 4 ect, COH being the only newish game I'm looking to get.
I was struggling a little with the old card, new one even if all the settings aren't maxed on the newer games should still look and run a lot nicer.maGz said:It will play the older games without problems, although you might need to drop the gfx settings a bit on CoH
Good choice, I had the same.Fallen Hero said:Well I plumped for the Leadtek 7600 GT in the end.

At the price and along with all the good reviews it's had I just couldn't resist it. Should give my P4 a new leash of life without breaking the bank. Should arrive via City Link Friday if all goes well.
Would it be best to skip the drivers that will be supplied and download the direct from Leadtek or Nvidea?
Yes, I may even upgrade from my trusty 9600 bps modem to broadband/cable for the multi player side of things.HangTime said:7600GT will be a massive boost from a gf2 - if you've managed to hold out this long it will probably seem ok even in modern games like CoH.
