The 4670 will be fine with the 300W Antec, and perhaps even the stock PSU. Contrary to popular belief, HP doesn't throw clunkers in these things. They actually do have a considerable bit of heft to them, in some cases more than their cheap, but well-designed chassis.
A 9800GT may very well fit, given that I have personally squeezed (albeit with no shortage of blood, sweat, and tears) a GTX260 into one of these things, but if you're going to go for a higher-end card, watch the orientation of the power connectors. Will a 4850 fit? Yes. Will you nearly break a finger trying to get it in? Also yes. A shortened 4830 (custom PCB) would be ideal if you think she'll need more power, although I would strongly recommend opting for the 380W if you go that route. While much more energy-efficient than the 4850, I wouldn't drop one on a single 19A rail.
