My first attempt at a HTPC build.

Custom NES case.
ZOTAC Z68-ITX WiFi Supreme Motherboard
ARK | Intel® Core™ i3-2100 Processor
Integrated NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 GPU w/ 1GB DDR3
8 gig RAM DDR3
256 Samsung SSD
160V Pico PSU

Overall I'm very happy with it!
Handles emulators very well, heating isn't an issue so far and looks great!
Only thing that's annoying me with it, is that it can't handle a few slightly more demanding games (Far Cry 3 being the only one so far), so I was considering fitting a graphics card separately to the integrated but the board only holds 1 x PCI Express x4 (open-end).
Any advice on what to do with this?
I was thinking of upgrading to Ivy Bridge to get the integrated with that, because I can't imagine any graphics card will work will x4?

Any help would be appreciated!
