Hey guys!
I have an acer aspire z5763, it runs a GT435M 2GB, that looks like is about to give up one me, so im lookin for a replacement. And was thinkin about this one http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5113#ov
Since the max power 35w on my old card and 38w on this new one.

And looks like there is enough space aswell.
Now the question is - will my power supply be able to run it, cuz it looks like 220w?

Nope, the 730 requires more than the ones i recommended, there are posts with success with those cards and a 220W psu on the internet.
And by the way i found a psu upgrade for you:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Athena-Power-AP-MTFX30-300W-TFX12V-Power-Supply-for-Acer-Dell-Foxconn-HP-/151222156321?pt=PCA_UPS&hash=item23358afc21
two 14 amps 12v

or this 350W

18a on the 12v.

and if you went ahed with one of them you should get a gtx 750 or even a 750 ti...

And what about that PSU, wont be too short? The new card wants 300w and 18Amps. And cant seem to find how much W the pcie slot gives out... >.>
And add to that, cant even find the recommended PSU for GT435M.

The power supply is a 220W psu total and that gpu needs 300 at least. If you have a budget for a new power supply you can get a decent graphic card. If not you are gonna be safe with an HD 4350, HD 4650, HD 4550, HD 5550. IT's up to you :)

I'm sorry i couldn't find a psu for your pc, as they are all just a replacement. You still can get the graphic cards I suggested in my previous reply.

And thats where it gets confusing, cuz all of your suggested cards need at least 300w, at least thats what i could find. But the max power req is just ~19 w.

If google doesnt lie, then a pcie 2.0 slot delivers max 75w, now if its the same with an AIO desktop..no idea.
