Quietest 128MB AGP card?

This is a discussion about Quietest 128MB AGP card? in the Windows Hardware category; Here is what I need - 1. 128MB (can't justify the 256MB cards right now). 2. AGP interface with DVI 3. QUIET. . . 4. <$125. 00 I've seen a few fanless cards with heatsinks, are they reasonably stable/cool running? I guess not having a fan would make them a lot quieter.

I'm not a harcore gamer, but play the occasional Blackhawk Down for a couple hours at a time.
 
I've been told to stay away from the FX5200 & Radeon 9200, what I've researched so far points me to the FX5600 & 5700 Ultra, and the ATI 9600 & 9600 Pro.
 
Thanks for the help in advance.

I have a 9600 without a fan. It' quiet but you won't hear the fan anyway cos the cpufan is much louder.
