Hi,
Have recently bought a cheap DELL OPTIPLEX GX270 for my son,
but he wants to play games on it

What sort of graphics card is best and what works?

I know i need a Low Profile Graphics card cause it is the slim version
But don't know which one will work

Please help

Hi brummy
You are not going to be able to put anything decent in the Dell as the power supply is very small and not able to power anything good enough to play games well...

small form-factor computer: 160 W
small desktop computer: 210 W
small mini-tower computer: 250 W

Anyone know if there is a low power GPU that would work?

Mark
