AGP graphics card that won't block PCI slot

[charlied]

I'm looking for a better graphics card for my Biostar iDEQ 210p SFF computer. I currently am using a 128 MB BFG GeForce3 Ti4200SE card. I want the best card possible that won't interfere with the Avermedia TV tuner card in the adjacent (and only) PCI slot,
I'm looking for something that won't run too hot and won't swamp out the power supply.

I seriously doubt you are using a GeForce3 Ti4200.

But I would recommend a Radeon 9200 or X300 if you need something small.
If you want NVidia go with a 5200 Ultra.

Whoops! Finger check -- The graphics card I have is a BFG Asylum GeForce4 Ti4200SE. Big difference! I'd want to go with at least a Radeon 9600XT if ATII route. If NVidia, at least a 5700 or 5900. I'd much rather a GeForce 6600GT -- I'd bought an XFX GeForce 6600GT and installed it, only to find that the heatsink wouldn't permit the installation of an internal TV tuner. Tried a Hauppauge external USB tuner, but Windows XP MCE2005 didn't like it, even after I installed new drivers recommended by Hauppauge. I reverted to the Ti4200 and installed an Avermedia UltraTV 1500 MCE capture card, which works fine.

System configuration: Biostar iDEQ 210p SFF barebones, Athlon 64 3400+ processor, 2x512 MB Corsair ValueSelect PC3200 memory, WD Caviar 2500SE 250 GB ATA Hard Drive, LG GSA4163B tri-format DVD writer, AverMedia UltraTV 1500 MCE video capture card, Rosewill R910E 19" LCD monitor, Windows XP MCE2005.
The power supply is an Enermax 250 watt true supply. Quite a few people are using GeForce 6800 or Radeon 9800 graphics cards with this SFF system.

This may work, depending on your case's ventilation.
