Hi guys, I'm new here but I've been browsing the forums for several years for tips and whatnot.
Finally decided to sign-up as I don't know which card to buy for my current PC.
Optiplex 960 (Small Form Factor, yikes)
It's a business computer I believe.. can't really switch anything out or something?
PSU: 255w (I'd love for higher psu but the ones I've bought never fit, physically..)
GFX: radeon HD3450 256mb (desperate for a card that my PC can handle without exploding)
Processor: Intel Quad-core (Q9550)
HDD: 80 GB (not looking to switch this one out yet)
OS: Win7 Enterprise (it's my work@home computer given by the company)
RAM: 8 GB
I've read that the hd4670 would be best considering my PSU, but the problem is the size.
My case can only fit low-profile cards. I'm not sure of the exact dimensions but length is under 7 inches I believe.
Any information would be much appreciated.
Using Google to search for my exact model & size & PSU isn't working out at all.
At most, I play League of Legends on Low-to-Medium settings, but looking to be able to run Borderlands 2.
I nearly bought this, but figured it wouldn't fit my case at all whatsoever.

If anything, I'd be down to buy a new PC altogether. (budget's like $600 max though. have extra monitors)
Won't be buying new PC til at least October or November though.
As for gfx card, most likely bought online as soon as I find one better than 3450.
Hope I provided enough information! Thanks guys.
