iirc, the 5450 is the lowest power gpu wattage wise, so i wouldn't think anything will die out. though its only a tiny bit better than your current integrated hd2000 graphics

(5450 is approx. HD 3000 according to toms)

Try a 6450. It is significantly better than a 5450 while still taking very little power.

Agreed, the 6000 series is basically just the 5000 series with better efficiency.
