What would be a good graphics card to get for my new PC?

Al-978 · Jun 15, 2016

I'm planning on buying a new PC that will be good for both gaming and university. I've decided to buy a desktop and I love everything about it except for the graphics card.

Here is the PC:

After some research I decided that the best graphics card that's in my budget is EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC.

Will it fit in my new PC?

You can probably add some GTX 950 models in now. And the R7 470 when it comes out will probably work too.

[strike] Check out the gtx 960 , but a used gtx 770 would be great . Also r9 380 [/strike] .
Sorry in that mini pc with 180 watt power try GTX 750ti . Other than that you can't get anything more power hungry . And i suppose you can't change your psu cause it's not standard atx form factor .
If you CAN change Change it with a 500W one , and my original statement becomes valid.
If this is kinda the size of your psu you may be able to change it >> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4UB2T65094

Wait until June 29th for RX 480 for GTX 980 performance at $200, or RX 470 for GTX 970ish performance for around $160

I wouldn't buy a prebuild pc if I were you. you can easily build yourself the same pc and save some money + you are free to choose whatever you want to put in your desktop if you build it yourself.
for the GPU I would wait for the RX480 since it perfectly fits your budget (-200$)

Al-978 :

it has a pcie slot, so thats good

BUT it only has a 180 W power supply

so you need to upgrade that before you can think of a new gpu
