I have a HTPC connected to my 1080p TV via HDMI and i'm looking for a video card to be able to play some games with a xbox 360 controller in steam big picture.
The HTPC specs:
i3 3220 (currently using integrated video, works great for emulators and media)
P8H67-M Evo
8GB ram
Antec EarthWatts 80+ 380w PSU
120GB SSD (OS)
2x 3TB Seagate Barracuda (Media/steam)
I'm looking for a card with very low IDLE power consumption (so when I'm not actually playing the PC doesn't waste too much power, its on 24/7) and that can play games (Borderlands 2 at the moment) at 1080p with mid settings.
What would you guys recommend?
