I am trying to outfit my Dell r430 with 25gbe networking.

Dell QL41232HLCU, is what I am looking at.

My main concern is that the card will not ramp the fans. Does anyone know if the above card is compatible? I tried a hpe BCM 25gbe and it worked fine, but the resulting fan noise was terrible.

You can adjust the fan response for 3rd party cards.

But yes, the Dell branded adapter should not cause the same behaviour.
