Nb: that's not entirely so. I ordered low-profile Chaintech GeForce FX 5200 
from newegg.com a while back. The picture showed a fan, but it was dirt-cheap 
and I'm not really that picky about noise with how my theater room is set up, 
so I bought it anyway. The card that showed up is fanless though.

As an aside, the card I got also produces the best HDTV playback out of the 
three I've had in this system to date (GF4MX and a GF 6200 are the other 
two). However, I'm looking forward to trying the new nVidia drivers with my 
6200 to see if they've fixed any of the problems I had with it...
