Will this card be too hot?

I don't really need intense graphics, but I want to get a few games, and I use my PC for movies. Will this one run hot without a fan? Is there a better deal out there for my needs?

Could anyone suggest some alternatives, try to save me some ducats? I don't think I need particular card, just want an upgrade from the integrated chipset.

4650 maybe? The 4xxx series is SUPERB, especially on the low and midrange cards.

Really? It's only $10 more expensive. Below that 4650 you get alot of low profile cards (like the 4550 and that 9400gt).

Even 9500GT's are $50+.

eh, I don't really need it, just wanted to play a few older games and movies, but thought there might be something in the 30-40 range. I saw a lot of the 8 series out of stock, otherwise I would look at an 8400-8500GS.
