Quiet ATI 7000 series

What is the quietest ATI 7k series graphics card I can get? Something preferably with 1GB RAM.

My impression with the 7900 series is that its very quiet at stock settings with auto fan. However, if you overclock and use manual fan it can get loud, it is noticeable at 60% or higher. But with auto fan it just blurred in with the computer fans, wasn't noticeable.

The Sapphire HD 7750 Ultimate has 1GB RAM and makes no noise as it is passively cooled.

If your criteria is merely noise and 1GB RAM, there you go.

^^ well that would be silent.

Anyways and of the 77XX and 78XX are all quiet at stock settings.

Cool, good to know. Are there any 2GB cards that are passively cooled?

Sapphire's 7850 OC is quiet, you can read the review at eteknik (not sure about the spelling) it also yields a good temp.
