Nvidia Flow FX Revamped

Published by

[H]ardOCP reports that they have received an updated FX Flow version GeForce FX 5800 Ultra from Nvidia. The new fan system is not active at all in 2D mode and according to Steve from [H] a bit more quiet than the initial web review versions. This new GFFX cooling system does not run in 2D operation, making it quieter than any other 3D cards in this current generation while not being used in a gaming capacity. When the GFFX Ultra is utilized in a 3D application, the fan system spins up and is still about as loud as it was before. Nvidia reports it to be around 5dBa quieter.
