[QUOTE="edterbak, post: 805293, member: 69192"] Hi gaz, Just a remark to widen your search. I too wanted a noiceless system. But I gambled on the gfx card with that and it turned out OK. I choose a "MSI R5670 Cyclone 1G". I think there are newer/better options available now, cause its still the 5xxx series. But this one has a massive heatsink and a big fan on it. The noice it creates is... extremely low. I have two 120mm slow turning 'silent' fans in the case to cool everything just enough. The cyclone doesnt add to that noice. I have never noticed this fan turning loudly or something. And I am very critical on this. I know this isnt a low-profile card, but my message is that you might want to broaden your search to include the low heat-load cards with propper low noice cooling. A fan doesnt automatically means a lot of noice. :) [url=http://www.guru3d.com/article/msi-r5670-cyclone-1g-review/1]MSI R5670 Cyclone 1G review[/url] [/QUOTE]
