The lack of the 560 ti 448 and the 7870 xt in the chart kinda sucks but not bad otherwise.

I live in a hot part of the world so I need a card that will very little heat.
I rarely game but want it for those rare moments when I do game.
Is this the card for me?

Thanks for your response:
1) The 7770 uses a 6 pin slot so I am only looking at the 7750 and 6670 that don't use a 6 pin power slot.

Can you confirm that the 650ti doesn't require a separate 6 pin power connector? The 650ti may draw lower power but the issue is whether is or not it requires a separate 6 pin connector.

I was waiting for the price to drop under $100
$101.00 is close enough for me !

1) Yes.
2) I don't know. That's a good point. PCIe 2.0 slots can push out 75w I think. It might be more efficient to draw power directly from the 6-pin rather than from the motherboard. Not...
