Coolest running,decent AGP graphics card for sff case?

Are there any midrange cards out there that are known for lower temps and decent performance for light gaming running newer games on low to mid settings. Went from AMD to a new E-4300 and the jump in temps. has been significant but not huge considering the performance boost. Still...want to get out of the high 50's and back down to the mid to high 40's while under load. Case/Cooling: Antec Aria w/PCI VGA fan, Zalman 7000 HSF w/ fan control. The performance of a BFG 6600oc has been fine so don't need a monster for this particular build. Thanks!!
Edit: Re-seated Zalman and temps. dropped by 7 degrees (under load). That's in the ballpark.
