Right now, I have the HP s5716f, with a crappy H-Apricot-RS780L-uATX. I want to add in only a graphics card, but from the motherboard, it only has two PCI-e x1 slots. I'm on a really tight budget, so I can only spend 80$ on a PCIex1 low-profile card, and I'm currently looking at two cards. I only plan to play emulators, some modern games (high detail doesn't matter to me), on a 1024x768 monitor.
One, a Zotac NVIDIA GT 610, pretty low end, but I've seen some reviews on it, 20-35FPS on med/max settings. Basically a perfect fit for my computer, but I don't know if it will last for a few more years.
Second, a low-profile Sapphire AMD HD 7750, along with a PCIe-x1 to PCIe-x16. This is a better card than the 610, but space is a major factor in my case. The space I have is only the size of the motherboard, which is 9.6x9.6 in. This card is 9.2 x 2.5 x 6.5 in.
Which one should I pick? Also, I don't have enough money to upgrade anything, so everything from the PC I bought is unchanged.
