Hello peeps, I am 2 weeks into search for fitting GPU to fill the slot of PCIE2.0 slot on my new bargain bought SFF PC. I've sourced some used RAM's, my dead laptops' SSD (ssd is alive don't worry) is there, only thing left is GPU.
The worry is 240W PSU being the biggest constraint and space obviously (refer to pic: http://izotservice.com/userfiles/productlargeimages/product_2609.jpg)
I budgeted myself around maximum of ~90 euros, I honestly don't bother if its new or used, basically going low budget on this one.
So far my search yielded me with 2 options:
1. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137148
Radeon RX 550
2. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487358
GeForce GT 1030
From the get-go Radeon is better I see, but I wonder if I am paying extra for performance
Will they fit? Will they get sufficiently powered?
Would SFF cards fit seeing the space? I would've tested this myself but I don't have SFF cards at my disposal.
And finally the goal of the PC( for those that might ask):
All arounder.
Light gaming (F2P or Online Games mostly), movies via HDMI on the TV, cappable machine of using it for data science tasks when the need arrives (sql db, python/r, tableau, spss, matlab), move the housing if moving to summer residence without resorting to work on laptops (honestly I loathe them)
PS. Any hackfixes on budget, I tried to find a way to rotate heatsink and to put current fan and or some budget one, to remove plastic "tunnel" and relieve some space, anything like that I am open to.
Cheers
Aye, is swapping to Athlon X4 A75 socket type CPU's worth it.
750K is best for the slot and there is one on the ads for 30 euro used. Would I really be pushing the constraint of my PSU?
