Are all radeon 9200's Fanless?

Most are
a heatsink just fine really, the cards core and memory runs slower then the
higher end cards so there is no need for a fan.
I've got a 9600pro with just a heatsink, and it flys just fine. Plus my old
card a geforce2 mx440 had a fan, which broke and fried the gpu. so fanless
is gd for "lower end" cards

Hope that helped

Thanks. I've been looking to pick one up on ebay but they seem to go for as
much as a brand new one would cost me from ebuyer.co.uk. One reason I
thought of getting one from ebay is that you can often see a photo of the
actual item (and ensure its fanless) whereas I'd be taking a chance on
ebuyer sending one without a fan.

Not all, I have a 9200 from gigabyte that came with a fan onboard. Quiet,
but it's still another fan. I got tired of the stock look and replaced it
with a vantec iceberq 4 with the blue leds. it is quiet too, so what the
heck, it sure looks cool.
