Hi All,
I know this has been asked before but I wanted to clarify my specific requirements in case that affected people's opinion.
Approx purchase date : soon
Usage : Blu-Ray / HD-DVD movie playback, no gaming
Current GPU : Nvidia 8600GT
Other relevant specs : Gigabyte S775 Intel P35 Express ATX (GA-P35C-DS3R) mobo, Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 S775 2.66ghz CPU, 4GB RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate, Arcsoft Total Media Theatre 5
Country : UK
Parts preference : don't mind
Overclocking : no
SLI/Crossfire : no, not bothered
Monitor resolution : 1920 x 1080
Additional comments : Card needs to be silent / passive heatsink, HDMI output with HD audio passthrough as it will be connected to a Onkyo TX-SR308 recevier
Update : I forgot to mention my budget, which is up to £100.
Update II : I also forgot to mention the PSU, which is a Akasa Ultra Quiet Pfc 400W With 12CM Fan (AKP040FG7BKUK).
Many thanks,
Phil
