Hello, Well, I'm trying to reseach a 7850 slilent the silent video card on an Gentoo based GA-99FXA-UD3 mobo.
I've had Asus Radeons HD 7750 in these mobo, and it is an outstanding bargain workstation. The PowerColor HD 7850 SCS3 seems to be getting really good reviews, for the cost. I think it now comes in a 2 GB of memory. This card says it is PCI-3.0 compliant. I cannot find if the mobo I have (GA-99FXA-UD3) has PCI 3 (16) ? Will the card work anyway? Or should I wait until I get a PCI 3.0 based mobo? What I want is a silent video card, that can also drive dual heads (nothing graphically intensive). All comments are welcome (note: I'm an ardent AMD-Radeon consumer). Tia, James [1] http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3894#ov
