Sapphire 9600, your thoughts?

I was looking at this card on ABSPC.com and i was just wondering, is that fancy heatsink alone enough to keep that thing cool!? THIS IS THE CARD

Most definitely. Virtually all 9600np's are passively cooled. Since they're on a .13 micron process and only clocked at 325mhz they run fairly cool.

Should be fine, but you should know that you wont get stellar performance from the non pro. You will get decent performance in older and current games. Not a future friendly card though. But you cant get quieter than passive cooling.
