Archived from groups: alt>comp>hardware>homebuilt (more info?)

Not a gamer but going to upgrade to AMD XP2800 Barton/AsusA7N8X Delux/512
Crucial.
Can't decide on a lower end graphics card.
Think its between Geforce FX 5200, Geforce FX5600XT or Radion 9200SE or
Radion 9600SE.
I'd be glad for advice from experienced members.
Also, does anyone know off hand which of the above have passive cooling and
which have fans?
Thank you.
Anne

Having a memory lapse? You asked this question about 3 days ago, and
there were plenty of answers.

The question now concerns absence of fans - he's interested in a quiet
system.

*I* don't. But I'll bet the manufacturers' Tech Support and
Customer Service reps can answer questions about the cooling
methods.

The FX5200's are a fine bargain, and have passive cooling.
