Do you have a link for the 470? I looked and it isn't $125. Where you talking about the 460?

I'm talking about used second hand 470s. You can often find them on the FS section of many forums. Hardforums had a bunch just last week at $120 each, and OCN right now I believe has one for $125. I can try to link you to a few if you have issues finding it, but generally they pop up once a week and are very common.

EVGA models often have lifetime warranties, and if you want transferable warranties then go for Asus/Msi/Gigabyte.

+1 to 7770. Great performance per watt and performance per dollar.

Thank you all so much. You've given some great advice, need to figure out what to do. The PS should probably be replaced anyway so I will upgrade to something 500W+

The Hardforum site is great.

Thanks, Ken

+1 6870 or 7770.

Also some of you are crazy thinking he can safely run a 470 on that PSU. I've seen first hand what Nvidia cards do to systems like that when people ask me what happened to the system.
