sorry, I missed that.

First I would at least double your RAM (depending on your OS maybe even 4GB) as DDR2 aint that expensive.

If you want to stick with NV gpu, I am pretty sure that their lower cards (260 gtx) will drop in price a bit with todays launch of the 470/480 (but you may not have the time as you need it to be fixed asap?). There is probably a decent ATI 5xxx but I wouldnt know which one to pick.

IMO it is important to choose a decent brand once you decided on a model. So look for msi, Zotac ... and avoid XFX and similar cheap ones.

PS: your mb is 790 gx instead of 7900 right?

edit: and about your the psu: sounds like physically broken but If its only the switch you could simply use one of those: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HJ982K/ref=sr_1_3/182-5569561-9520203?ie=UT F8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1220538230&sr=8-3%29
