ZOGIS ZO52-CAGP GeForce FX 5200 128MB 64-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card

Look at the comments. Someone ordered this card and received a
'passive' version (AKA no fan, just a big heatsink like the one you have).

This one, that's a bit trickier, if not impossible.
I did find this link, which /might/ work for this card:

But anything else, it's going to be a lot of searching and following
links on your part. There just isn't much info out there any more. As
much as I wish there was, as I have an older NVidia 6200 AGP card I'd
love to replace the FX5000 series I have in my DA now (modified G5 card).
Good luck and let the list know what you find as this subject is still
of interest to many.
