or if something else is good for around £35 then list it here. P.S. I don't want any cards with fans no matter how quiet and it has to be low profile and supplied with the low profile plate too.

I don't get the Fan hate. The ambient noise in the room is louder than mine. I've literally powered off my entire house and tried to listen for the fan and still don't hear it. You could also get a cheap fanned GPU and replace it with a massive heat sink. It may end up cheaper.
And since you mention aplay and ubuntu, stick with Nvidia for linux.
Code:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `xbmc_%`.* TO 'xbmc'@'%';
IF you have a mysql problem, find one of the 4 dozen threads already open.

as I thought.
Anyone know for sure if a GT210 card will work with sound via HDMI?

I have a GT220 and it does. You need to configure some things. (And I need to update the Wiki with the newer instructions).
