    I wouldn't have recommended a Dell myself, however it will do for what you need it to do.

    If you were still in the market for a graphics card, the 1950XT would by far be the best.

    Poor cooling and very loud under load though.

    As you've separated out the noise component it's a bit unfair to say the cooling is poor - it very effectively exhausts heat from the card out of the case without affecting other components. It's so good that the card just never ramps up to noisy speeds in normal conditions.
