I need a new Video card - PCIe 2.0 x16 full height okay - fanless desired

<< < (2/3) > >>

Newegg has the just released ASUS STRIX GTX 960 at $209.99 and the MSI GTX 960 Gaming 2G at $239.99.  Guru3D has reviews of both cards including thermal images.

Hendrik:
I ordered a MSI GTX 960 Gaming 2G for development purposes (better hardware HEVC/H.265 decoding ahoy), but it'll go into my HTPC once I'm done with the dev work. With HDMI 2.0 and the extra power, it should make my HTPC 4K ready, for whenever I buy a screen.
It should get here tomorrow if someone is interested in some tests.

mojave:
Let us know if it is the first GPU with full HVEC decoding support.  ;)

Hendrik:
I can already tell you that it is. 10-bit too, it looks like. So it should be ready for the upcoming Blu-ray 4K format.

ldoodle:
When do you stop caring about specs. solely for HTPC use (upto 1080p)?

cores
clock speed
boost speed
memory (amount)
memory bit rate
texture rate
floating-point
pixel rate
ddr3 vs gddr5
etc.

It's an absolute minefield.

Looking at the GTX750 (£90) or GTX750 Ti (£110). Is any of the above crippled by the PCI-E slot on the motherboard, i.e. the GTX750 is PCI-E 3.0 but my motherboard is 2.0 or 2.1 (can't remember).

Or, the GT 730 OC (£45).
