Need a New GPU

[Destiny]

My cousin has this PC:

It has an AMD Athlon x2 250 and the integrated NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE Graphics with 256MB integrated shared graphics memory is not cutting it for him.

He games at 1280x1024... what GPU would you recommend and would fit in that case? He's getting a new PSU too...

Thank-you in advance!

OK, I'm gonna give this a try.

I looked at the specs here.

I believe you need a very low power low profile card. A 6570 should do the trick. This should not need a new PSU.
It will be much much better than the onboard Nvidia graphics.

edit: oh ok, a new psu also?
One min...............

A 5750 low profile is the fastest low profile card I could find. 40% faster than the above card.

Sounds like he would be shifting bottlenecks in his computer instead of solving it.

Thanks happymedium... maybe the 6570...the other one I don't think it will fit in his HP PC Case...

Blah blah blah bottleneck. So what? Its not like hes not going to get a noticeable performance increase out of it.
