I just wanted to thank everyone who replied to this thread. I'm still considering which one to get and you have all been very helpful.
I still welcome any and all other cards that would be silent or easy to make silent for right around $100.

$100 silent/full passive card recomendations.
The deal was, I built up a new computer a couple years ago and never upgraded my video card. Well, now it seems like its having some issues pushing some of the movies I try to watch in 1080p. So it seems like it may finally be time to upgrade. 99% of the time I do massive graduate research and web b...

Re: Nexus value 430 whining problem with Ubuntu 10.10
Not Pci-E video cards. My video card is fanless.
Do you think its drawing to much power for .10?

Nexus value 430 whining problem with Ubuntu 10.10
Alright. This is a weird one. My nexus 430 intermittently whines when my computer is more or less idle. High pitch whine. However, it only happens on Ubuntu 10.10, it does NOT happen on 10.04 OR windows 7. ANYONE have a clue why? To test that it was my upgrade from .04 to .10 that caused this new so...

Nexus 430 value volume question?
My Nexus value 430 is at least twice as loud as my 1 120mm Nexus Real Silent Case Fan D12SL-12. At one meter away, case closed, it is very very distracting. Much above ambiance room noise. I cant figure out why. my current system temps are 34c for the hottest of the 4 cores. 34, 25, 25c. my sis does...

Newegg has both the 9600 and the 9800 as requiring a 450 psu. But you were getting away with your Nexus value 430? I ask because I have a nexus 430 and was thinking about this card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125282&Tpk=GIGABYTE%209800GT%20Silent%20Cell 2 other little t...

reddyuday: A SSD drive is out of my price range right now, perhaps down the line. Chrome is a nice browser, but i rely heavily on the firefox extensions, ad block, zotero, mouse gestures, etc etc. Does anyone know if the Nexus Value 430 will supply enough power for this i5 system? components: Intel ...

I do a lot of web research. I also just dont close my tabs. Its kind of silly. For example i have 5 radar tabs of my area cause i wanted to know the weather. My desktop died. Mobo just gave up the ghost. It was a old Athlon thunderbird 3800 or something like that. I am currently using a Intel duo co...
