    Need a new Card for an X-Qpack

    Hi,

    My 7900GT crapped out on me and I'm looking for a new card to replace it. I'm would like to get something better than a 7900GT, but it still has to fit into my X-QPack.

    I've narrowed it down to three choices that are in my price range: 7900GTX, 7950, and the 8600 GTS (I'm trying to keep at $175 or less, I've found a couple of these cards on eBay).

    If the PSU is a problem, I'm tempted to upgrade to an X-QPack II, which has a 500W PSU, my current PSU is 420.

    Thanks.
