I'm living in the Netherlands.
My budget is limited, but please give me three options:
-State of the art
- Equal to he broken card
- Budget solution

The power says:
Total +12VDC Outputs shall not exceed 732 W
Max Output power: 750W

Thanx jay2577

You should have no particular problems, the HD3870x2 is a low power card by current standards, check out the chart at the end here: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/gaming-graphics-card-review,review-32865.html
Final recommendations will depend on the monitor resolution but for now I'll suggest you look for the HD7790/GTX650Ti as top choice with the HD7750 or GTX 650 as rough equal.
You may find it difficult to find a budget card without sacrificing a lot of performance because very low end cards are often overpriced so I advise you don't consider that option.
