I was looking at a fanless low-profile ready Zotac GT630 the other day at Newegg. It was $34.99 at the time.

Edit: Decided to order. Needed some low-power yet CUDA-capable video cards. No gaming.
Edit: According to this, the card is rated at 25W:

Edit: GPU-Z is reporting 400Mhz memory. Meaning, DDR3-800. According to Zotac's site, the card has DDR3-1600. I'm a little concerned.

I had thought it was clocked down, due to low memory controller load (0-20%) on PrimeGrid PPS cuda WUs. But my other Q9300 @ 3.0 w/GT630, is running at 100% memory controller load, and 97% GPU load, and GPU-Z is still reporting 400Mhz for the memory clock.
So this batch of cards, may have DDR3-800 memory on it. Can you get much cheaper? I'm a little upset, Zotac and Newegg's site both claim DDR3-1600. Is it possible, that it's not running at 3D clocks? Is there some way to boost clocks? I think that the cards come with overclocking software, I'll have to try installing it, I guess.
