Second Video Card in XPS 8700

I have already 2 monitors 1920 x 1200 running on the Nvidia GT 635 I would like to ad a extra card to run monitor 3 at Resolution : 2560 x 1440. The monitor has been ordered. I need some help picking the right card I have 2 type of port left PCI express X1 and X4. I would like a card that do not make noise since the XPS is so quiet. I have already 3 HD in it

I was looking at the following:

I know very little about hardware, I would like a card that will fit in my other available slot and that would not require too much Power so the power supply would power everything properly.

Thank you for the help.

2560 x 1440 is a TV standard not a video card standard.

display resolutions up to 1920x1080 are doable.

analog displays using any resolution up to 2,048 by 1,536.

1,920 by 1,200 using a single-l ink DVI connection, or 2,560 by 1,600 for dual-link DVI

Thanks for the reply but  I am trying to order a very good video card that will work with my current system and need advice on it.

Will the one that I mention work well or should I use something else?

I don't think what you are trying to do will work ... I don't know of any video card that will fit in a PCIe x4 or x1 that will run that high of a resolution. You need a single card that will replace your GT630 that will run 3 monitors.

You do not have a Precision T3400/T3500. Your motherboard/Chipset DOES NOT SUPPORT crossfire or SLI. The ATI Radeon HD 7750 Series GPUs can upscale video display to 2560x1600 on six monitors with ATI Eyefinity technology which is almost six times the display resolution of 1080p display

Its not going to work EVER with 2 PCI-E video cards .

You can get 6 monitors on a
