Anything made by AMD will likely work well on linux (and if it doesn't, you should get something that closer resembles support). I believe that there are some older model fanless HDMI + dual-link DVI boards, but I'm not intimately familiar with the full line of AMD offerings. Separately, my recommendation of using xf86-video-nouveau stands (and is, I might point out, entirely contrary to Ben's, who is the RedHat "nouveau" guy and kernel module maintainer). However that won't fix in any way any GL applications that "do bad things" (or cause nouveau to do bad things). FWIW in my regular (non-nouveau-development-targeted) use of Xorg with a variety of nvidia boards, currently the same GK208B as you, and without any of the "modern" hotness, I've almost never encountered hard hangs, despite using applications like chrome, etc which do tend to make use of some GL capabilities. Note that some GK208's, like mine, and some other boards as well, have a very sad hang-due-to-fan situation. The bug is https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91413#c6, the hackpatch is at https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/nouveau/2015-March/020421.html . It's been going on for literally years without being addressed.
