This is not a high end card so it's not very big in size, I'm sure you can easily fit this into a HTPC case. The cooler is well mounted on the back of the card and I have to say right away that this is the most silent little 40mm fan I have ever heard.

The card has so far ran for 5 hours and I have had no heat issues. This card comes equipped with one DVI, one displayport, and one HDMI port.
