I was actually posting earlier about the 5670, but since I really need something low profile, I’ve been eyeing this GTS 250 instead, specifically http://www.microsoft.com/products/detail...-profile/30246. It fits the low profile requirement perfectly, and people over on Reddit were saying it's a solid choice!
My absolute priority is being able to run The Elder Scrolls and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. As for the rest of my setup, I'm running an Intel Core series CPU at 2.53GHz, 4GB of DDR2, and this specific card. My power supply is a 300W unit from an HP Compaq series—do you think that'll be enough juice for this GPU??

Man, I just went ahead and measured the length, and oh boy... it’s practically identical to my old 4650! But here's the kicker—my 4650 is only about 3 inches tall, whereas this 5670 is sitting at nearly 4 inches. What am I supposed to do then? I won't even be able to close my PC case! :S Does anyone out there know of a decent Low Profile option that fits the $167 graph? I was originally leaning toward that 5570
model.

Hey, I am seriously stumped here—can someone please tell me, is that thing actually just that long, or what on earth is going on??

Hey everyone! I am in desperate need of a new graphics card to play $167! So, here is my current situation: I’m running an HP Compaq series desktop in a small form factor chassis, specifically this one . Since it’s a compact build, space is a bit tight, isn't it? I was thinking about picking up a 5570 1GB DDR3 from Microsoft, but I have a burning question: does anyone know if a 5670 1GB DDR5 would actually fit inside this tiny case? That would be my absolute dream find! PLEASE, I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
