New graphics card for PC

I won a new pc from SlickDeals.net and am wanting to put a graphics card in to play some games. The Pc only has a 250 watt power supply and I really do not want to change that. What is the best card I can get for this? The model is this one:http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/computer_can_series.do?storeName=computer_store%26category=desktops%26a1=Category%26v1=Everyday+computing%26series_name=p6120t_seriesI do not need to run Crysis or anything like that. Call of Duty modern warfare or Battlefield 1943 would be the most demanding games I would want to play. I still play alot of Battlefield 1942 and Star Wars Battlefront. I also do not need ultra high resolutions/details. Any recommendations?New graphics card for PC
I forgot to ask about monitors. I need to buy a monitor fairly cheap ($120 or less) what would you recommend?New graphics card for PC
It's probably not what you want to hear, but you really should get a new power supply. I don't think there's any card out there that's even slightly suitable for games, that will run on a 250w PSU.
250w and u wanna game.IMPOSSIBLE AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED.
That is not what I wanted to hear. My last desktop had a 6800 oc card in it and I ran it for 3+ years on a standard Dell 250 watt power supply. Is there anything that would work? Maybe a 9600 or even an 8600? I dont know much about ATI cards.
The best option:EVGA 512-P3-N856-LR GeForce 9600 GT Low Power 512MB 256-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Retail $79.99It will work with your 250W PSU and offer great mid range graphics, while still being really cheap. Not to mention EVGA is a great manufacturer.

[/QUOTE] This is the best card you will be able to run on that little wattage power supply.
not true right out of evga's mounth :P9600gt low power system requirements for psu:Minimum of a 350 Watt power supply.
(Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 20 Amps.)sourceid say best you could get would be a few steps down in 8400 land :P it will do battlefront 1 well as will it do 2 but cod4 and bf1943.. ehh not so much

[/QUOTE]Its just a safety precaution so noobs don't screw up. I know what I'm doing. Ran a 8600GT on 300W and 250W PSUs before. Also, a couple of the reviews specify they ran that card on 250W PSUs.

That card sounds good. I think I may get it. Modern combat will run okay on it?How bag would the lag be if I played games via a wireless card (g router)?
[QUOTE=''aura_enchanted'']i said 9600 not 8600 .. rotfl[/QUOTE]Ya I'm aware of that. A 8600GT's power consumption is nearly identical to that of a 9600GT low power.

Just received my new pc. They actually sent me one with a core 2 duo E7500 (2.93GHZ), 3 GB of ram, and a 500 GB hard drive. Are these pretty decent. I have never won anything this good before. If anyone has not visited slickdeals.net, I encourage you to do so!
