Hi,
I have recently bought this PC on eBay (Dell Optiplex 740). The specs are; AMD Athlon64x2 @2.1Ghz, 1Gb DDR2 RAM, 80 GB SATA HDD, DVD/CD-RW drive, and a 280w PSU. It will only take low profile PCI-e cards. From the little research I have done, my best choices seem to be a GeForce GT 520, or Radeon 5450/6450/7450. I would like to do some gaming (WoW, TES: Oblivion, TES: Skyrim, FFXIV) at low/med setting @ 720p. Is there a better performance card with a low power, low profile requirement (that won't require a PSU upgrade) than those I have mentioned?
Thanks.
