Looking to buy an X1950 but there are so many to choose from atm i'm confused about which one to get.
Some criteria in no particular order:-
Silent or very quiet.
£160 or less.
Overclockable.
PCI-E.
Fits in an Antec Sonata.
Fast.

:confused:
 
They are all the same mate, people like the iceq as it blows the heat outside the case, apart from that you will be lucky to find a difference in any of them.
 
Either get this HIS X1950Pro 512MB (£152.74) or this Connect3D X1950XT 256MB (£164.49.)

The X1950XT will be substantially faster, but the X1950Pro has far superior cooling and will run much quieter.

Personally, I would go for the X1950XT. It's not as loud as people make out, and if the noise does bother you then you can always fit an Arctic Cooling Accelero X2 for only £15 or so.
