A few years back there was a calculator program that allowed you to determine the heat output of different CPU's running at different speeds and voltages - it was quite useful for figuring out what HS/Fan you could use, etc., and of course just how much thermal energy was being given off by the CPU.
I was wondering if anybody knows where there is a web page that lists the heat characteristics of the current graphics chipsets. Things like its thermal power output, thermal conductivity requirement of heatsinks, etc.
NV and ATI don't really let out that kind of information - in fact the only place you can find any info is from Intel and their integrated graphics/chipsets design guides.
The main reason for asking is for silent PC uses - i.e. what is possible.
