Need low power GPU for Dell Optiplex 970

I need a decent GPU for a system with a first gen i7 850 (might be 870? Dun remember). Looking to sell it eventually, perhaps, but it needs a GPU. I have tried to put an ATi X600 in it to no avail. Even though it is PCIe it still whines about it. The 1 - 3 error code on the lights still comes up. Anyone have any ideas? I thought about a 750ti but those are rare and the last one I found was on a 200 USD price tag 4 months ago... If I could do an ATi/AMD card that'd be cool.

Also if you're about to ask "Why not get another PSU?" I can't. Dell has a proprietary plug that is basically an ATX plug shrunk down and I can't get an adapter either.

Thanks!

If I don't hear back from someone who was interested in buying my nearly new GTX 750Ti I'll sell it to you for $45. I'm just waiting on word if he's still interested in it:




That'd be great if the bank hadn't closed my account when I got out of college :P Thank you though <3

If that GPU is still up for grabs id be interested if aremis isnt. PM me if youd like.

I mean I can't buy anything that I can't hold in my hands so the net is a no :P

If I don't hear back in the next couple of days from the person I promised it to, it's yours. Just send me a pm so I can remember this, because I work six nights a week and things can sometimes slip through the cracks for me. :-P
