I wouldn't call a GTX660 low end, or do you mean by that that it's a old card?

Well it's not too expensive, and it doesn't need any glueing, that's rather well thought of. Something like this would still need good case ventilation.
The question is, how good does it perform? Will it win any substantial gains over buying something like the passive 750Ti? Can it handle a stock 960 without the fan, for instance? Will we see a short review of this, Hilbert? 🙂

Hardest part is the PSU, passive ones are limited in wattage and expensive.
Best bet you would probably need a fanned psu and some case fans if you went for a fanless cpu as well.

A SilverStone nj520 would work as the 970 wants 500w, and you would need a case that is mostly mesh and uses the fact that heat rises to get some airflow. idk I just think it would be cool.
