The graphics card provides optically differently displayed as Amazon, the heatsink is rectangular with a red plastic cover and covers almost the whole graphics card, the fan is substantially less than shown.
Although the graphics card technology dates back a generation, the readings under various speed test programs are impressive. For the above-mentioned application for movie playback this card is more than sufficient. Even 1080p material is played back on my 60 "Pioneer plasma via HDMI at 1920x1080 perfectly, very fluently and without problems in synchronization and pixelation.
The only drawback of the card - the fan is too loud!
Since my PC is in the bedroom, the volume is not tolerable. Wiso one is not capable of at a brand graphics card power the fan or to regulate temperature-dependent? The expenses for this are components for a few cents.
I have the fan (12V) now connected to 5V, it is now almost no longer audible, and a warming of the graphics card is not noticeable even with HD movie playback. For gamers, this is of course not recommended, since the stress can be much higher, resulting in overheating of the graphics card.
