Any product with Silencer in its name must be able to do things quietly. The Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer is no slacker when it comes to keeping a video card cool, but can it do it without waking the neighbors? The answer is a resounding yes. Even in High-speed mode, I could barely hear the wide bladed, blue fan turning over the noise of just one 80mm case fan. - The Review

I have to say that disagree with your Cons for this product, but I do agree with you on every other point.
I don't have a windowed case so I don't care about LEDs. I have a 9800PRO overclocked to an XT; and the cooler does not over hang the card.
One problem I did have was getting the graphics card back in the case after the Cooler was fitted. It turns out that Northbridge HSF on my Abit IS-7 motherboard blocks the plastic back bracket for the Cooler. Luckily it is plastic and a session with a file takes care of the problem.
Nice review and nice product. But what Jab-Tech $13.95 price? I clicked over ready to purchase, only to find it instead listed at $17.95. Still not bad, but I wonder what happened to the price you cited. It was too good to be true, I guess.
