I need helping with my GTX 960.

Sam_96 · Jan 17, 2016

Hi, so I'm quiet new to the technical gaming scene, and I was wondering what graphics card to get?
I have a Slimline Packard Bell iMedia; this is the specs and an image of it.

So that is it, but I currently have the ASUS Nvidia STRIX GTX 960 DC2OC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card that I bought today, but I need to return it because it doesn't fit.
I want a card that I can run games (Arma III) On well; I want to play on decent specs with decent frames.
So could you help me please?

Thanks.

You need a low-profile GPU to fit into that case. Something like this should fit:

tmicheal :

Good suggestion for a full size case, but not here. Only low profile GPUs will physically fit into this case.

He's only got a 220 watt PSU, also. May be another can of worms to upgrade that as well.

COLGeek · Jan 17, 2016

Since you can't OC that rig (nor should one even try), the stock 220w PSU should be fine. The OP could drop back to a GTX 750 (non-ti) as well.

Regardless, a low-profile GPU is required (one with the low profile bracket attached).

Does it not fit because it can only be 1 slot or is tp long of a card

COLGeek · Jan 17, 2016

tmicheal :

It is too tall, too long, too wide, and requires too much power. Otherwise, it is a good GPU for other systems.

Omg I haven't seen a Packard bell in ages used to be here in the states.. His only option is a SFF gpu which can run under the 220 watt PSU WHICH is probably SFF as well and that's where it gets tricky in upgrading this system.

tmicheal · Jan 17, 2016

Well the most powerfull gpu you can get pretty much is the 750ti
