Posted February 6, 2016 well the 390x uses more power.. but its a much higher performance card and will play games better than a 970. in a head to head graphics test the 390X would win, without a doubt. Gaming - Ryzen 9800X3D | 64GB 6400mhz cl30 | 9070 XT Homelab - many servers...constantly changing. 3970X/256GB - 5950X/128GB ECC - 5600G/96GB - 3400GE/16GB - 3400GE/16GB Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/542066-head-to-head-graphics-test/#findComment-7175047 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 6, 2016 That poll is impossible to answer because you've asked a conflicting question. It's like asking "which is faster and heavier, a semi truck or a Ferrari?" Solve your own audio issues | First Steps with RPi 3 | Humidity & Condensation | Sleep & Hibernation | Overclocking RAM | Making Backups | Displays | 4K / 8K / 16K / etc. | Do I need 80+ Platinum? If you can read this you're using the wrong theme. You can change it at the bottom.

I do understand what you are implying Yeah, my point is that you can't answer because the cone that's faster is lighter, and vise versa. Just like the poll; the one with more power consumption is going to put off more heat and thus more noise (less silence). Just one possible example of how it doesn't work Solve your own audio issues | First Steps with RPi 3 | Humidity & Condensation | Sleep & Hibernation | Overclocking RAM | Making Backups | Displays | 4K / 8K / 16K / etc. | Do I need 80+ Platinum?

Power consumption will conflict the possibilities of more noise and heat! Thanks for the help, really appreciated!!!
