I have a Windows Media Center PC that Like to nurse along a bit longer.
I am using a Radeon HS6570. There is a know problem with ATI when fast forwarding TV that it can lock up. Apparently, nvidia doesn't have the issue.
I have a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P motherboard:

So, I believe my best socket is 2 PCI-E 2.0 x16.
My current card:
HIS H657H1G

Ideally, I could also lower power usage (heat) while upgrading. No gaming, recent win7 drivers, DVI and VGA port, silent card (fanless)
What is my best choice?
A GT 730 or 710? Or do newer cards fit into my slot?
