Asus EN7800GT TOP Silent

@ 2006/01/28
As ATI and Nvidia fill up their graphics chipsets with more and more transistors, even as they continue to shrink the die, with increasing clock speeds this means simply more and more heat. More heat of course requires more cooling solutions and more often this not this means a big fan. While it is true that both ATI and Nvidia have done a lot of work to keep the fan noise down from the furiously loud fans of the past, it can still be a problem, especially for those considering PC's for the home theater. Luckily, there have been a number of solutions that now use entirely passive cooling, even on high-end video cards. We previously looked at solutions from Gigabyte and Asus and today we have another, Asus' best passively cooled video card yet, the Asus EN7800GT TOP Silent.
