Cheap passive nVidia card for 3007FPW?

Given that I do not play games and the 3007FPW is a hit enough on my wallet, I would prefer a cheap card for this monster. Passive of course, most video cards are way too noisy and I would not like to install third party cooling solutions. To compare, at this moment I have a Dell G0170 (passive, low profile FX5200 dual DVI w/ splitter) and two 2005FPW monitors and this setup is great.

Compare decibel ratings on video cards recommended for a 3007.

Dell recommends a 6800 nVidia series or 6800GT for a 2407.

I use a TI4600 with DVI outs for two 2407's but limits gaming options.

I bought a fanless 7600GT from Gigabyte and it works a treat (and silent too).
 
The Asus fanless 7600GT is an extra AUD$100, but can't see any reason why......

I would not pay $100 extra either as they both use the same gpu & are really a standard reference design.
This is the type of v/card I would have recommended as well.
cheers
