[HELP] New Graphics Card: Does it fit and is it worth?

Tugaviciado · Oct 27, 2014

Hi,
I want to buy a new graphics card for gaming but i have a problem: i don't know whitch graphics card to buy, due to my small box.
My base pc is an HP dc5800 Microtower. Its box almost has no space on the backside.
I am not worried about bottleneck problems and want to spend less than 160€.

Any help is apreciated, and i'm sorry for my poor english.

Hi,
The case is a decent size, however the PSU is only 300w.
Also, it seems that the PCIE port is 1.0.

A GTX 750ti only requires 300w:

Does it fit? I cannot find any information about the maximum GPU size.
Is it worth it? No, I don't think so. I imagine you'll have a bottle neck and to me that isn't worth it.

You will probably have a bottleneck though.

I see

About the PSU, it is no problem, I have many of those, and have a 750W one that can use.

About the bottle neck, it isn't a problem for me. One day my pc will be upgraded (just don't know when

)
The main problem is the size, and i really don't know about the maximum size, but I can say to you that at the moment, I have a MSI Geforce GT520 and it fits quite well.
