What low-profile NVidia Quadro PCI-Express to pick?

[vincent at cojot.name]

Hello everyone,

I'm planning the purchase of a few Optiplex 745 desktop workstations (core 
2 duo) to replace some aging machines. Those will run exclusively 
RHEL4.4/RHEL4.5 and will need a mid to high-end 3D card. Since only 
low-profile PCI-E cards fit into the 745 desktop cards (unless there's a 
riser card) and since we've standardized on NVidia drivers, I'd rather get 
NVidia Quadro cards than move to ATI cards. Do you have any recommandation 
for a low-profile PCI-E NVidia card that'd fit into the Optiplex 
Desktops..?

(I've "heard" bad things about the ATI Linux drivers but don't hesitate to 
comment on this, btw.. I have little factual information but so far we're 
happy with the .run/modules.conf aspects of the NVidia drivers)

Thanks for reading,
