Hello from a newbie in the forum, from Sunny Spain :)
What graphic card would you recommend to install on the Pcie slot of a GigaByte GIGABYTE GA-E350N-USB3 AMD E-350 APU (1.6GHz, Dual-Core)?
Requirements:

1 -Play modern games at medium settings
2- If possible, Low iddle power consumption.

I was thinking in a HD 5770 or a Radeon 240...

Would you recommend any of those, or another?

I have mounted 8Bg of Ram (1333) and a corsair GT SSD.
I will likely mount a 300 watt fanless PSU (but could mount something more powerful, if needed)

It will be used as HTPC (Installing XMBC), and ocasional gaming (say diablo III).

Splendid
Well for Diablo III I would go with a 6770 and a 400w to 500w PSU. If you are planning to upgrade in the fucture then get a 500w PSU and make sure the brands are Corsair, Antec, Seasonic, and XFX type brands. Good luck to you.

Hi,
As a follow up, I just bought an nvidia GTX 650 Ti.
Plays last Elders Scroll smoothly and configures itself automatically at "high level".
And is really really silent.
