What to put for Dell Volstro 230 Slim casing

I had this Volstro 230 for home use, though it proves to be quite suitable, only problem is I don't really like the graphic card. But I want a ATI card which can do a bit of mining when it is free. What card can fit into such a casing? I tried 5770 6770 etc but they seemed too big. Any advice?

Too big. He needs a "Low profile" card. The best you can get with that is a 5570 or 6570.

6570 will have the upper hand since it has 480 shaders vs the 5570's 400 shaders. They have the same core clock though.

Unless he bought a vostro 230 slim it's a mid tower and will take a standard single slot card without issue, if it's a slim he needs a low profile and might as well give up you'll pay more than they'll ever be worth for mining

Mine is unfortunately a "Slim", can I check does the low profile card requires any external power?

A low profile card will not require any external power, however even with the 6570 you're looking at 60-80mh at best roughly .055btc/day
