3D Fuzion may be a new name to some, but it's a subsidiary of the better-known BFG Technologies .

The Geforce 7600GS is aimed at the lower mainstream market. It features a 400MHz core and 256MB of GDDR2 memory, which is also clocked at 400MHz (800MHz effective).

A small heatsink and fan keep the GPU cool and the memory chips are left uncovered, making it a quiet card. The Geforce 7600GS is ideal for those building a system on a tight budget.

The card achieved a 3Dmark05 score of 4,099 when tested at the standard 1,024x768 resolution, and 37fps (frames per second) when benched using Half Life 2.

Although you won't be able to run the latest 3D games smoothly in high detail, these figures aren't bad - especially at this price.

It's not totally fan free, but it's still one of the quietest cards around and performs well
