Recommended passively cooled graphics card for 2D use?

[sura_1]

Hi,
any help/advice would be much appreciated.
I'm looking for a good quality graphics card with two digital video outs either dvi or hdmi.
The PC I'm building will be using this motherboard http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Z68VGEN3/
I'll be using the PC only for pro-audio so I'm not looking for a graphics card with 3D capabilities for games or anything like that, I only require 2D.
I would much prefer a card with passive cooling as trying to keep my PC as quiet as possible is the most important thing.
As said above any advice on which graphics card to get would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I wouldnt even know what to recommend in that case. It doesnt sound like you need anything super fast, id scour newegg to look for a certain model or something.

This is a GT 520 that seems to have what you want, those are very slow video cards though. $33AR.

Here is a much faster Asus GT 440 with passive cooling for $57AR.

Then of course theres lots of ATI cards passively cooled as well.

Heres an MSI 5450 passively cooled for $20AR.

Would you even need to use something beyond the GPU integrated into an appropriate i5 or i7 processor?

Maybe a discrete graphics card is superfluous? I don't know. Just throwing this idea into the melting pot of geniuses.

Is this for a new build or to replace an older card? If the former, then the IGP you can get with Llano or Sandy Bridge should be fine.

Use the HD2000/HD3000 integrated graphics.

IGP trumps a passive card.
