System Specs

Which gaming graphic card for my Mini ITX case?

My 7650GS is too slow for MOH so I'm looking for an upgrade.
Requirements:
-can be passively cooled
-small enough to fit in an Lian Li PC-Q08 (mini itx case)
-doesn't need pci-6 pin power
-fast enough for MOH @ 1680x1050/1920x1080 medium quality

Candidates:

-GT 240 GDDR5 version + Zalman VNF100
-Sapphire Ultimate HD5670 1GB GDDR5
-Sapphire Ultimate HD 4670 512MB GDDR3

Personally I like the nvidia drivers better so I want to get the GT 240 GDDR5 version and install the Zalman cooler on it, the problem is that I don't know if the Zalman is going to fit on the GT 240.

The Sapphire cards are already installed with an passive cooler so I wouldn't need to worry about those cards.

GT 240 + Zaman VNF100 cost about 100 euro's, so does the Sapphire HD 5670.
The 4670 is much cheaper only 65 euro's.

Which one should I choose and why?
