Any good Graphics cards for a mini tower PC

Two questions:

1. Is it a slimline or not? A make and model would help.

2. How much power can the Power supply provide? Are you able to post a picture of the sticker or provide any information about the 12v rail from the sticker.


Here's an example of a PSU's sticker:

Here is the info on the Tower, I would expect to have to upgrade the PS, and Video card as it is a small PS. I believe this is what is called a slim line.

You need to answer the questions asked. Give us the make and model and tell us how many +12v amps the psu claims to have on the chart located on its side.

If it's 3.9 inches in height then it must lay on it's side and if it's 12.4 inches in depth then you really limited in your choices of Muscle Cards. I have a mini tower and it's 15.4 inches from face plate to rear panel and the Nivida 9 series low profile was a tight fit. Open it up and measure how but space you PCI-E slot allows from rear panel to the closet obstruction like : DVD-rom drive, Hard drive catty, etc. The Nvidia 9500 GT is only 6.75 inches long everything else is 9 inches and up.

Okay based on the 3.9" height you have a slimline case which means you are limited to low profile video card. The bracket on a full size video card is over 4.5" tall.

The low profile 9800GT is the most powerful video card you can buy. Off the top of my head, the 9800GT probably consumes about 80w of power. You should probably buy a 350w power supply.

Also there are the 4650 LP if you don't want to go that expensive.

I'd expect that the PSU is either mATX, ATX or TFX. Since some Acer models are very small I cannot be sure.
