I recently built a new PC for my home office (specs below) and I've been well pleased with the result so far. I'm using the on-board graphics but would like to upgrade (might do some light gaming) -- however, I've gotten spoiled to the almost total silence of the current configuration (the case sits on my desktop no more than 3' from my ears). Are there any really silent (or at least, really low-noise) video cards out there?
Silent GPU?

What do you mean by "light gaming"?
There are a few passive cards, probably the fastest one I can think of off hand is the 7750 Ultimate.
How much noise are you comfortable with? What kind of performance are you looking for and what kind of games do you play?

I was referring more to the probable degree of my involvement than to the games themselves. I haven't gamed at all in years, but I used to enjoy Flight Simulator and would like to try the latest version. I'm a big fan of the Walking Dead TV series, so the game would certainly be on my short list. Beyond that, I don't even have any idea of what is available.
