Well, it's got a cool looking fan and shroud. I am kind'a partial to the 71 Cuda but this one designed off a 96 Cuda...
Casecutter will like the CPU Magazine Coupon (value:$19.99) The magazine has a lot of pictures...
The magazine features articles, reviews of hardware and software, editorial content and classified advertising. It is geared toward more advanced users than its sister publication, SmartComputing. Regular guest writers used to include Chris Pirillo. CPU Magazine differs from most other computing magazines in that it focuses more on the latest hardware rather than software or gaming. The advertisements are, however, strongly aimed at gamers and users of multimedia software.
Spartan, while I don't know what RPM the fan uses, this GPU doesn't produce much heat at all in 2D mode like you'd have in HTPC duty so odds are it isn't very noisy, but if it is the heatsink looks very accommodating to strapping on a lower RPM fan with nylon wire ties, or soldering a series 1 watt resistor on the fan lead of roughly 68 ohms should also reduce the RPM significantly.

I have this and am able to play all of my games at 192x108 resolution!
192x108? Is that on your wrist watch or something?
not too loud for htpc use?
I'll like it for more than just the centerfold...
