Silent GPU with triple monitors?

I have three HP LP2475w monitors connected to a HD5770. I very rarely play any games, if I did they'd be RTS on a single screen.

The HD5770's fan has started to get noisy, and is now annoying enough to need to go. Without it the PC would effectively be completely silent.

I was looking at passively cooled replacements. OcUK only appear to have three options available with the three digital outputs I need:-

  1. Sapphire HD Radeon 6450 FLEX 1024MB GDDR3 Multi Display PCI-Express Graphics Card
    I'd guess that this would be more-or-less useless for any sort of gaming, but would I notice any problems with normal 2D desktop use?

  2. HIS HD 7750 iSilence 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (H775P1GD)
    This appears to have similar performance the HD5770 I want to replace.

  3. Sapphire HD 7750 Ultimate 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
    Basically the same as the HIS iSilence.

Any other suggestions?

I don't really want to spend more than £100.

The monitors run at 1920x1200 and will accept DVI, Displayport or HDMI inputs.
