define overpower? I'm a big fan of better single cards over multiple lower cards. More parts equals more points of failure.

[great_big_abyss]

Go for the GTX650 for the increase in memory bandwidth alone. If I'm not mistaken, the GT630 uses DDR3 memory, while the 650 will use GDDR5

You can't SLI GT 630s.

[great_big_abyss]

I think you can. They SLI through the PCI-e slot. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

Oops, colour me crazy, SLI is clearly NOT supported on the GT630. My bad!

All the more reason to go with that GTX650. Or better yet, an HD7750.

I would also go 650 by your choices, but personally would pick a 7750 at the price point. Or a good sale on a 7770.
