I need a single slot card that consumes less then 25w for cheep. It’s for an old server so keep that in mind. Thanks

The GT730 is the best you will get sans 6pin power lead.

But depending on which server you are working with (I work with PowerEdge servers) you can add a 6pin power lead and put proper gaming cards in them.

why not 5w more and get gt 1030? it's the best performing card around that TDP.

Because this is a server board, and they have hard limits of 25watts.

as far as i know entering the EFI doesn't allow you to change power values for pci. although i am new to xserves and haven't attempted this. if you know how please tell. :)
