So yeah! Preferably <$200 dollars... I'm having a hard time finding out if the HD 5570 is any good...

I want anything that can run ARMA 2 better than HD 2400 actually

Thanks for the help!

well, i can't really help that much but i was planning on getting a XFX Radeon 5770 i heard it was pretty decent and can run ArmA II pretty well (which is one of the main reasons i am getting it). Its Under $200.

Nvidia 9800GT would probably suffice, and probably quite cheap... Ok its not the latest gpu in the market, but im still running my 8800GTX on at least medium on arma2.. But the 8800gtx is a double slot jobby, but I think the 9800 is a low profile 1 slotter, unless that's not what you meant xD

i have hd 4600 it runs arma 2 with evrything on low-medium except resolution in pretty decent fps ( playable at least)
mw2 runs good on it aswell as other strategy game i play so its pretty much answering my needs so far

Cool, now...

What's better? HD5570 or 9800GT?

The link you posted answers your question doesn't it? They recommend the 9800GT which is ~$100. Not bad.
Is your motherboard micro ATX?

I originally thought you were looking for a single slot full-sized card because I thought the majority of low profile cards are only good for HTPCs.

Just for the record, I went with the GTS250, 1GB, which I believe is the best low-profile card available ATM...
