I dunno, but I bought this card a while back: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-145-067&depa=1 The card I got was actually fanless, despite the product shot, and did include a low-pro plate. Kind of a gamble with either one of these cards, since the card I mentioned earlier may not have the plate, and the card above could come with a fan. :-) > Jarod Wilson wrote: > >On Tuesday 08 March 2005 09:23, Michael S.
