search
-Tha'st the inside of my case.
I am planning on upgrading my GPU to an rx 480-470 or a gtx 1050ti, but i am worried if my motherboard will support the new GPU's. And which one will fit in my case. Thanks for the help

The graphics card does not need a compatible motherboard.
It just needs a PCIE x16 slot.
From what i can see, your pc looks like a mid tower case. So the Radeons and the Nvidia will fit into it.
Go for the RX series, it will be worth the price difference.
Plus i think that AMD cards are more futureproof than nvidia.
Your i5 will not bottleneck any of the cards so you can get any decent card.

Thank you so much for your help, i will buy the 470 or the 480, but will an oper cooler (msi sapphire etc) be good for my case? Will the temps be good cuz my case is very tight. Btw When i touch my case i feel a tiny tiny bit buzzing is that normal?

make sure you measure the max length , looks like it should handle a rx 480/rx 470 no problem

Alright thanks for the support, i have another question, i just opened my pc and cleaned it and used it without the side case for about 5 minutes to locate why my case has a bit of buzzing noise and why it buzzes the case when i touh it, the problem seems to be coming from my front fan, any solutions?
