Solve : Need advise on a small size graphics card? |
|
Answer» HI all, The problem I have is that I bought this MICRO ATX MOTHERBOARD: MSI 760GMA-P34, I never had a motherboard this small, so I had not foresaw the problem with fitting a regular SIZE graphics card. So now my challenge is to find a graphics card that is powerful enough to run games like Left 4 Dead 2, and Astroneer, yet small enough that it'll fit on this motherboard. For Astroneer, ideally it has to have a GPU with 2 GB VRAM. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated It seems to me a card like this one would do the trick: GeForce 730You can opt for GeForce GTX 950.The problem with that card is that it's PCiE, where as my motherboard only has PCI 2 x16. Regardless of its much higher price, this incompatibility should be more than just a bump in the road, but more like a large solid wall Thanks anywayYou want to narrow your search to what's called "low profile graphics cards"...That motherboard has a PCIE 2.0 16x slot (Blue), a PCIE 2.0 1x Slot (small black one), and a standard PCI Slot (Bigger black one). You should be able to install effectively any PCIE card into the 16x slot; PCIE Versions are FORWARD and backward compatible. Limiting factors would be whether it fits in the case and whether the power supply is adequate.This is great to know! Thank you so much for both your inputs DPC |
