I just don’t see the value of having a card that pulls 70W at idle, just sitting most all the day to do PhysX for a couple of games titles he may not have interest in. PhysX isn’t that great to have...

I think everbody was on the right track. That said as you're already both Win7 I wouldn't consider anything that doesn't give you Dx11 abilies. And the idea of finding an SLI bride for the 8800GTX...

Yeah a lot of folk think that the old stalwart is still the best/only option. When you factor power/performance a 5670 start's to get some legs.

Is this the i546s-3230 Inspiron 546s AMD X3 8450, Win7 that came with the 24" LCD and sold through Wal-Mart? Those where said to have the 250W.

Well a SFF enclosure it's also about the heat and maybe noise. I would think about a 5670, they aren't all that differant in the seat of the pant game play. Definantly better if looking at a...

Well the question is do you intend to gaming with the more modern titles? If not and just web-browsing, email or video play-back like from the internet you sure don’t need a 7900GTX. Just the power...

Well a 5670 draws about 20W more than the 4670 at idle, but the average, peak, and max is only slightly more (3-5W).

Now, many folk where working 4670's on quality 300W OEM boxes and still had room...

Here's a review from the other day of a PowerColor 5770 OC that was $135 -AR $20. At 1920x1200 it's was 1% better than the GTX260. Then don't disregard the power savings if you are one to leave the...

Yea, I don't see you really getting advantages of a GPU of any more than an GTS250 1Gb or 5770 as the P4 would be the bottle-neck after that. Even those might be too much performance for a 3.2Ghz....

Yea, I'd say that OCZ 750W should run a 3870X2 along with all your other stuff and not be taxed. The 3870X2 is shown it can pull a max of 225W at least here a GPUReview, although normally averaging...

300W or less, Half-Height and Acceptable Gaming? That’s tall order…

The number one you’d hope to get is something with 128-Bit interface and DDR3. So there are/were a few 9500GT like this, but now...

Didn't clarify that all that well... that would be 9300GS, 9500GS, and 9600GS. I probably shouldn't have said it as *don't* compete, but rather "will" compete with... as neither are for gaming and...

Question 8800GT's in SLI clobber a single HD4850?
