Hello Everyone
I am looking for a ATI 3870 video card but it needs to be silent that is no fan.
Can anyone help suggest one?
My current card is a Nvidia 8600GT my first and last nvidia. Does the 3870
support 1600 x 1050 @ greater than 60hz
Thanks in advance.

Did you try typing "passive HD3870" or "passive 3870" in Google? And looking
at the top three hits?
Powercolor makes one. An 8600GT is no better or worse than an HD3450 card,
which is it's competition. Any research would have show you that an 8600GT
is slower than a 7600GT in every single game running in DX9, and in DX10 is
too slow to be of any use unless you back all the settings and resolution
down to where it looks worse than DX9 mode.

That was supposed to read "HD 2600 Pro". The HD 3450 is considerably lower
on the rung.

I should have said in Australia because Newegg will not ship to Australia.
Thanks

Surely, being that close to the Asian market, there's some e-tailer around
there that would carry it?
 
No one in australia has that model yet, it seems that Australia are the last to
get new probucts.
I am told first North America then the EU and so on then Australia.
