Love how you can put the most silent, biggest fans on it you can find, run them via mainboard, and have a silent card. Much better than the usual stuff... never had a more quiet card than my 5770 passive + 2x120mm fans at 500rpm

I did the same thing with 1x120mm fan on my HD 6770 RIP was a great card and lasted a long time.

I love this line, but classic question will it melt? Does someone Geforce 1050 Ti from same line, could it run without additional air flow in case for gaming? I would love so see test here, because its Geforce 1650 on paper, but there could be some cuts to make it possible.. so comparision with air cooled card would be nice too see.

i wonder why isnt this the norm for sub 100w cards, is a smaller metal chunk with a tiny fan and cables any cheaper than just a bigger metal chunk?

I doubt that the card could run without any additional case fans... and I don't think it's intended to do that. If so, a single fan should do the trick, probably mounted on the card itself.

Yes, it's cheaper, Copper costs alot and those heatpipes add up. Most cards in this range have pure aluminium heatsinks, as small as possible, plus cheap-ass fan made in China.

How many cases are able to handle it without removing or cutting the side window panel?
