Default Good Pci-express Graphics Card for 250w Power Supply 450w Max

I just puchased a computer that has a nvidia 6150se built in graphics. I like to game so i would like to upgrade with a graphics card. This is my specifications according to hp:

1 PCI Express x16 slot
* Pre installed power supply is 250W.
* Input voltage - 100-127v/8A
200-240V/4A
* Maximum output wattage - 450W
Is there a graphics card under $60 that would work with my computer and be an improvment to what i have? I dont want to have to put in a power supply too.

That'll much improve your performance over the 6150.

RedK, please stop recommending these cards. They're trash. They will improve over the 6150 but a rock would improve over the 6150.

OP, get a 4830. Worst case scenario you can't run it and have to pay $40 for a new PSU, best case scenario you get much more bang for your buck than a glorified HTPC card.
