EVGA blower style GPU

EVGA's 650 Ti is a hybrid. The back isn't sealed shut, so it blows air out all directions, front and back.
 
I need a blower style GPU that blows hot air out of the case and I know that e.g. EVGA Geforce GTX 660 is a blower style GPU.

I was just wondering if anyone know whether the EVGA Geforce GTX 650 Ti is a blower style GPU or not.

Thank you in advance.
No , that gtx650TI and all as far as I know use a down draft blowing fan.

Where a blower fan uses a centrifugal type fan with fins that pull and then pushes.

Some air with the 650ti will still exhaust out the grill shown in the picture. Also the 650ti is very low power, and will not add much heat, which is why there is no 'blower' model.

By the way, Newegg has a special on the PNY GTX 650ti 1gb for 129.99 and a 20 dollar rebate= 109.99

I am preferably looking for a GPU with a rear exhaust because I'm not sure if my case has good or bad airflow and therefore not comfortable with taking the chance with a non-reference card which blows hot air inside the case.

The only fan I see in my case is the PSU fan and the fan over the CPU. My motherboard is a micro-atx and probably a mid-tower case.

How would a hybrid fare over a fully rear exhaust GPU in a case with limited airflow? I just don't want to turn my computer into an oven.

If you want a gpu recommendation you need to give us all the specifications. Cpu/m/b/ ram /make and model psu. What resolution you are going to game with. And if your budget is 200-220 for a gtx 660 2gb or saving quite a bit and getting a 1gb gtx 650ti, like I showed on special.
