HD 7850 is a bit hard to locate these days, I'm using the R9 270 and it's solid stuff.

a little cable management goes a long way.

you wouldn't need to worry about GPU though. even in my test above, the GPU was on burn in test, run it for a few minutes with high RPM fan on casing and such.

a typical user wouldn't even have to worry about the casing fan RPM and GPU temperature.

Depending on your budget, there's the GTX 750 now that uses very low power.

As long as you overclock the power consumption is sure to increase. You won't feel any performance difference from 900 to 940 though.

No, I don't think it goes that far.

Sorry, more like YES it does increase.

NO as in it doesn't go that far in power consumption (eg reaching 75 - 80w)
