yes that is true but, what matters is if your computer is so loud you can't sleep or have a super annoying sound generating from ur computer.

$134.99 with a $10 MIR so its actually 124 which is only 5 bucks more than the one you picked out

4830 is a great bang for buck card
i got the iceQ version which is pretty much silent until you turn the fans up.
runs 1920x1080 8X AA at high settings and get like 25fps.

^^^^ good link
HIS 4830 fan edition

The Good:
+ Amazingly low cost per frame
+ Performance is not too far off from the 4850
+ A good choice for gamers who can't afford the 4850 but don't want to drop to a low end card
