XFX gfx cards? Ok, or RUN AWAY!!!!! by Tomo2007-07-25 08:59:36
  Just bought a XFX 8600GT by archnerd 2007-07-25 09:54:19
so far so good, though the fan makes me slightly nervous. It's a low-profile fan so it fits with another card immediately beneath it, yet doing so seems to block most of the airflow. I have two graphics cards; the other is Asus, which takes up two slots but looks like it has better airflow. The XFX card is just used to drive my third monitor, which will never be used for 3D acceleration, so it's probably not that much of a worry for me. But if you're a gamer, I'd be cautious about using an XFX card in a tightly-packed case.
