So I got a new PC a while ago, but unfortunately it has inbuilt graphics and a 300w PSU, and I am looking a new graphics card. I do not play AAA games, and play things like DotA 2, TF2, Fez, Half Life etc. My budget is around £120 but I can stretch to about £150.

It would be much appreciated if someone could give me a graphics card that would not require me to upgrade my psu or an alternative that would mean new psu and graphics card within my budget though.

All system specs here:

Any reply much appreciated, thanks

Unfortunately you may struggle with a 300W PSU.

The closest you'd probably get is something like a GT 640 (£70). It is more than capable of playing the games you've listed. But I think the minimum PSU req. for that is 350W?
