I have a HP DC 7900 Small Form Factor and I am wanting to do some light gaming on it. Since my PC only has a Intel chipset, the performance and graphics are terrible. I have a $110 budget and I cannot go a cent over.
My PC specs are:
Windows 7 64-bit
5Gb DDR2 Ram
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 @ 3.16 Ghz
Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset
240w HP PSU
1600x900 display

Thanks to anyone who answers my question :) :) Thanks!!!!!!!!!

The amperage on the various rails of the power supply. If you could take a picture of the side of the power supply (where the label is) that would tell me all I need to know.

Also that GPU isn't small form factor so it won't fit in your small form factor pc but it is the right model. This one would work, I don't have any experience with zotac cards but I hear that there customer service is pretty poor so thats something to be wary of...

What do you mean by specs? And instead of the R7, would this work? http://

This is also the cheapest gpu that would fit in your case and fits your budget. Plus its by xfx which has decent customer service. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150682&cm_re=R7_250-_-14-150-682-_-Product

But if I am going to be completely honest the R7 250 isn't really worth it. Its nearly half the performance of the GTX 750.

If you want to keep you specs, you may try this card:
GeForce GT 730 64-bit GDDR5... it does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 38 W / mx TPD 65w, size should fit to your casing.

Your PSU should accommodate that card (for around $70), if ever, you may get cheaper psu with your extra bucks.

The zotac card I linked above is still the cheapest card I can find that is slim form factor.
