Hi all I made a thread a week ago that I wanted to do some gaming with an i3 but until now did know the specific requirements.
I bought a pre owned HP Compaq 6200 desktop with the following components.
i3 2120
4 gb of Ram (Going to add another 4gb)
1 TB HDD
320w PSU (Can't change it as it's designed for this particular board)
Ill be gaming at 1680 x 1050.
I was thinking about getting a pre owned 660ti or 7850 but that's out of the question since I am stuck with this PSU... So I need a card that doesn't require a 6 pin connector.
I have done a PSU calculator and it says that i'd get away with a 320w PSU as long as the card only takes 75w.
I also need the card to be no more than 7" / 178mm long as the heatsink is in the way if it's dual slot/big fan.
I found this 950 gtx low power http:// but it's a little pricey at £140.
I have also looked at getting a RX 460 as there about £100 but there either to long and no 6 pin or the right length but require a 6 pin... So a little bit screwed there.
A 750ti would do I guess but they cost about £110 new which is a ripoff!
1050ti is around the corner which could be a good shout if it's small enough and run off 75w.
Can anyone find a suitable RX 460 based in the UK or recommend an older card that i could buy pre owned?
Thanks Trev.
