An Intel Celeron/Pentium + HD5450 might run on a picoPSU 90. A HD6670, doubtful.

According to AMD, the HD6530D+HD6670 is supposed to be equivalent to something called "HD 6690D2". But, according to this article, you don't always get that dual-graphics performance boost: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-...975-2.html. Then at the end, they have a A8-3800 / HD6670 sytem they've put together.
From everything I've read, the real sweetspot is G620 + HD6670. I don't have a G620 on-hand so I'll just have to run with what I have and see how the numbers come out. Probably G530 + HD6670 is close enough. $40 for the processor + $75 for the card = $115 which will buy you a A8-5500 or i3-2120. I don't know how A8-5500 would stack up against G530 + HD6670 but I am sure i3-2120 won't run the games the HD6670 can.
I looked at the Sapphire HD7750 but didn't like needing a mini-HDMI to HDMI dongle (even though it comes with one). I'd probably opt for the PowerColor low-profile HD7750: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814131480
