Anyone know if the newegg card comes w/ a low-profile shieldplate? I'd be willing to ditch my 9200se radeon if the nvidia actually _works_. *sigh*

(Sorry, been hacking at this 9200se for over a week now w/ no real results. I'm just a little exaspirated. :))

Do any of you have experience with this brand? Any pros or cons? Is it
passively cooled, or does it have its own fan?

I am assembling my first Myth box. At the moment my plan is to park a
desktop PC in an existing closet behind the media center, so noise is not
a big factor right now. But reliability is, so the fewer fans the better.
And someday I might want to build a separate frontend. . . .


My MadDog FX5200 has a fan. It's pretty quiet compared with the CPU and
power supply fans.

I bought mine on a rebate from CompUSA. MadDog took far longer than the
promised time to pay on the rebate, so I advise against buying a MadDog
card if a rebate is required to get the advertised price.



NewEgg has a fanless, low-profile FX 5200 for $44 right now, no rebates needed.
