Which Geforce 4400 and 4200 are VERY QUIET?

Going to be building a computer next month and I plan on it being very quite.

what video cards in the 4400 and 4200 rance would you recommend that are also very quite.

thanks!

All run pretty hot so none are VERY quiet.

However, I have heard a lot of good things about Abit's GF4TI cards. Quiet & effective cooling, even with o/c.

They're also decently priced. May be right up your street!

To be honest most people wouldn't tell the diff anyway with PSU & case fans blowing. While not as high performing the GF4MX cards should be available without any fans. I'd prefer a slightly noisier GF4TI myself, but it depends how important quietness is to you.

thanks, I'll give that card a look

The abit siluro geforce 4 ti cards are nice and quiet, like AnAndAustin said. I have the ti4400 myself and I've found the noise level produced is acceptable.

Here are a bunch of 4400s and 4600s from THG.

Yeah I recall in a review Abit's Ti4400 was the quiestest of them all. (Might be THG but too lazy to check =P)

I personally have the Abit Siluro Ti4400 128MB and it runs extremely quiet. My entire system is stocked with quiet Panaflo fans (on the heatsink, on the case, in the PSU,;everywhere) and I don't think I even notice the GPU fan on the Ti4400. Very satisifed.

I can't hear my Abit 4400 at all. Got a decent overclock too (305/625 artifact-free).
