Is this for playing the occasional game or other? There is a PCI-E slot available, correct?

I know MSI just released a HD 5670 low profile card (not in retail yet), but this card seems like it has very good specs for low profile: SAPPHIRE 100293L Radeon HD 5570 1GB 128-bit DDR3 P...

There is no external power connector so all of the power is delivered through the PCI-E slot. Your PSU shouldn't have any trouble with that. :)

could i run a ati 4350 LP

If I'm not mistaken it has a higher power draw and less performance than the 5570. It also wouldn't be much better than the onboard you're currently using.

7.5a on the 12v rail? Is it even possible to have anything other than integrated on that?
