I'm looking at throwing a ATI RADEON 9100 64mb card into a system. Naimly because it works well and it only costs 50 bucks. I'm just wondering though, I'm trying to go silent but I don't want to have to swap fans off the card either. Are their any models of 9100 that have "silent" fans on them? Or for that range of cards 8500-9200 are their any which have silent fans?

..I guess all the ATI Cards aren't not that "Loud"
if you really need a silent card, Get Radeon9600 or Radeon9000 (no pro)
both have no fan on that and should perform pretty well

The Radeon 9200 only has a passive heatsink as do some of the Radeon 9600np. Sapphire has a 9600Pro Ultimate Edition which is fanless but it carries a price primium.

A Voodoo2 SLI runs pretty quietly, & has double the POWER! :evil:

My OS features preemptive multitasking, a fully interactive command line, & support for 640K of RAM!
