My current graphics card (Nvidia GeForce GT 620) is not working properly and need to be replaced. The cause is probably overheating due to too much dust in the fan/sink, and perhaps old age.
I'm thinking of buying an MSI GeForce GT 710 card but I noticed this one does not have a fan. This makes me a little bit suspicious. If it can handle the heat without a fan why isn't all cards of this model fanless? Is it because technology has advanced enough to make the old cards less power hungry without sacrificing performance?
