Radeon 7750 Low profile or GTX 650 low profile

Guest · Jan 5, 2014

Hi I would like to upgrade the graphics card on my Dell Inspiron 620s (slim tower). I think it has a 250 watt psu but I am ok with upgrading it.
I would like to get either the sapphire Radeon 7750 low profile or the Zotac GTX 650 low profile.

I would like to know which one is better for gaming. I usually play minecraft, Garry's mod, and other 1080p games. I am limited to low profile graphics cards because I have a slim tower. I would also want to know which one uses more power.
Also which one is a better built card.

Thanks in advance

GTX 650 low profile is better than HD 7750 low profile and requires less power than HD 7750 low profile so you should go with GTX 650 Low profile,
it will be better.

Yes GTX 650 requires 75W in full load and better than HD 7750 in performance. But take a measurement of the GPU and the case to look if it will fit inside the case or not before buying.

Which one is better quality

Will I need a better psu

lonewolf7 · Jan 5, 2014

A decent PSU is always welcome, but I think your current PSU will do. And again the size matters. And GTX 650 is the better one.

Hd 7750 consumes less power than gtx 650

Guest · Jan 5, 2014

I have 2 free pci x1. Im using 1 currently for my WiFi. the pci x1 are below my pci x16 where my graphics card is. I think i should be safe. If i Max out my computer. (CPU, disk, graphics, at 100%) Will my PSU handle it? Zotac recommends a 350 watt psu.

Heres my manual if it will help: ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/inspiron-620s_Service%20Manual_en-us.pdf

Either card (GTX 650 HD 7750) will not take more than 75W on full load, so if the PSU is decent one then you are safe to go. But I don't know if the card/s will fit in your MB.

Which PSU do you recomend. Right now i have a 250 watt dell one.

lonewolf7 · Jan 6, 2014

As I said earlier, fitting of PSU will depend on your case size. And don't go with that PSU, its not a good one. Go with this one, if you have the room for PSU :

lonewolf7 :

Unfortunately only TFX PSU will fit, look here for possibilities http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007657%20600014004&IsNodeId=1&name=TFX12V note that Seasonic are the best PSU on this list and the one of the best overall, hence the price is steep.

Zotac GTX650 might require PSU upgrade and Sapphire 7750 low profile would not requires PSU upgrade, still available at http://www.neweggbusiness.com/product/product.aspx?item=9b-14-202-002 this is the best choice, save on PSU, just get it if you can.

Anything else I can help you with?

Guest · Jan 6, 2014

So this psu is good
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151090
Will it have all the cables for my Inspiron 620s
Manual here: ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/inspiron-620s_Service%20Manual_en-us.pdf
If i ever want to add usb 3.0 powered ports, will this psu handle them

Guest · Jan 7, 2014

Will I get shadow play if I get the Zotac GTX 650 low profile. Is that seasonic I posted above good

lonewolf7 · Jan 7, 2014

Yes you will get the shadow play option on GTX 650. Another option is Fraps for recording gameplay. And that PSU will do, but I doubt it will fulfill your needs.

Guest · Jan 7, 2014

So will it have the cables I need for my computer without USB 3 ports. I'm fine without them.

lonewolf7 · Jan 7, 2014

Kisianik · Jan 7, 2014

Yes as well - those SeaSonics were used on many Dell Slim models for a very long time.
With Zotac you have ultimate Slim model.

Anything else I can help you with?

Guest · Jan 7, 2014

Just wondering, is there a good tfx psu on amazon. I have amazon prime so i would get free shipping. Not a big deal but just wondering.

lonewolf7 · Jan 9, 2014

Here is a list of TFX PSU on Amazon, but I think you got the best one.

Guest · Jan 11, 2014

Just ordered this PSU
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151114

It is 350 watts. I decided to get more watts to be on the safe side. With this psu will I be able to get USB 3.0 ports? I have a PCI x1 free.
