Hi does anyone know of any pci-e cards that are made with half height brackets attached as the passive X300 thats in my media centre is getting a little hot now and i have no room in the case to put a fan in.

Cheers.

Ive owned cards that are half height with full height bracket and like easy said you just need to do a bit of cut and chop, no point paying more for a 'special' card

Just stick a fan on the passive I would
 
Well I've managed to find a 128mb Radeon X1300 in the Dell business store with a half height bracket, just how much better would it be over the X300 guy's.

I know you state you have no space, but you could look at maybe putting a 60mm fan on a home-made bracket either alongside or on top of the card, the 60mm's are a lot thinner in profile than 80mm fans.
