Hey,

The onboard HD3200 on my HTPC's motherboard doesn't play well with my HDMI switch. I tested out another computer with a 7800GT and that worked fine, so I'm looking for a cheap and quiet Nvidia card to pop in the HTPC. It's sitting in a cabinet, so as low TDP as possible, really and passive cooling probably isn't an option. I don't need to output audio over HDMI. Also, it needs to fit in a Lian Li C36.

I was looking at the G98 8400GS, the G110 and G210. Can anyone recommend a particularly quiet one? Alternatively, a low-end 7X00 would probably do the trick.

Thanks
 
Ok I think I'm going to go for the G 210. Each manufacturer seems to have their own cooler. Does anyone have any idea which will be the quietest?
