This may be the best available: www.newegg.com/.../Product.aspx
It will be compatible with your power supply and make possible mid-level gaming.

Thank you for the response would this also work it looks like it requires less power than that one and based on the price it looks like it has better specs but i cant go by the price alone lol

It does not have better specs. VisionTek cards are simply always overpriced compared to the competition. Both are HD 7750's so both will have the same power consumption even though the manufacturers state differently.
That same VisionTek card is sold on Newegg, but nobody buys it because it costs $40 more for the same thing. The Sapphire is better.

It's the same GPU for more money.
As pointed out, Visiontek products have inflated prices. Sapphire is a highly-regarded brand.
