When I bought my card recently, that was exactly my question.  What is (1)
the most powerful card that (2) makes no noise and (3) works perfectly in
linux?

The answer I concluded upon was the "Asus V9520 Magic/T GeForce FX 5200
128MB (GX-013-AS)".  That's the sixth card down on the link below.

Good value for money and supports side band addressing and fast writes
perfectly.

Let us know how things go.

Take care.
