Need help choosing a grafix card!!!
Alright so my 7900GS finally gave out on me and i need a new card. The only problem is that my PSU is only 400W.
Whats the best card i can get without burning my house down lol. Im not really looking upgrade my psu (at the moment).
Also, i need a card thats equivalent in size to the 7900GS (my case is extremely small). Anyways, thanks guys for all the help!
The rest of my system:
Amd Athlon 64x2 Dual
core processor 4000+
2.11GHz, 2.00GB of ram

***Also, the card has to be the same size as a 7900gs because my case is very small.

Your PSU will never run a GTS250, and that's an obscene price to pay for one anyway.
IMO your best best is to get one of the 9800GT eco models at newegg for ~$80 AMIR.
If you're determined to shop at Best Buy because you work there, I'd get the 4670. It will be weaker gaming (especially with AA) than a 9800GT, but far more powerful than a 9400GT or 9500GT.

I didn't remember his first post having the Best Buy stuff in it, so it did chang my answer to the 4670 if he has to shop there.
If he posts in italics, I'll have to go with the 5750 Top Secret Edition. Only draws 3 watts at load, but runs Crysis 19X12 4X16X at 60fps minimum.
