I like having a bit of oomph in my retro PC with the Geforce 6800GT that I luckily found at a freegeek. It's a great card and one of the fastest that works on Win 98. However, it is so noisy as it uses the reference design fan. It is actually the noisiest part of my whole retro PC. Does anyone have any ideas or experience on how to quiten this card down?
It appears that there used to be a product called the "NV5 silencer" but this is long discontinued and I don't really want to try and salvage one off another card from ebay or something. I'm thinking a third party generic fan of some kind, if it's doable, but I have no idea what would fit.
