If you are building a mini-ITX gaming PC or a powerful HTPC then you will need a good small form factor graphics card for it. Almost all Regular sized graphics cards are too long and they cannot be made fit into most of the mini-ITX cases. For this, you need a compact graphics card that has a shorter length PCB and can easily fit into a mini-ITX or small form factor PC case. These compact graphics cards with shorter-sized PCBs are also known as small form factor graphics cards or mini graphics cards. The width of the SFF graphics card may or may not change but their length is always on the shorter side. An SFF graphics card should not have a length longer than 211mm and most shorter SFF graphics cards have a length shorter than 175mm.
There is a major difference between low profile graphics cards and these compact or small form factor graphics cards. Low profile graphics cards are sleek i.e. they are not wide. They may be longer in length, especially in the case of powerful low profile graphics cards, and may or may not fit in the mini-ITX cases, whereas compact or mini graphics cards are shorter in length but are as wide as the regular-sized graphics cards. They can fit in the mini-ITX cases but not in the slim or low-profile cases. You should also know that these compact or mini graphics cards can also fit in the mini-ATX and regular ATX cases perfectly.
Here in this post, I am going to list down the best SFF graphics cards for small form factor PC. These SFF GPUs are very powerful and most of them can run the latest games at medium-high or Ultra graphics settings at 1080p.

Final Words
In the end, I would like to say that if you are looking for powerful compact, and small form factor (SFF) graphics cards for mini-ITX cases then these are the best you can find. Nvidia certainly has an edge over here because it has a wider range of mini graphics cards as compared to AMD. If you are still unsure about which mini-sized graphics card to get then you can ask me by leaving a comment below.

I just want to thank you for this article. If it wasn’t for this I wouldn’t have found out that there was a sff GeForce GTX 1070. I decided on that model but the full size version would not have fit in my mini itx case and I was going to modify the hard drive cage for it to fit. After reading this and seeing the smaller version its not even a question to buy the smaller one. Thanks again for your reviews.
You are most welcome my friend.
Thanks very much for the very informative article. I have a SFF case (HP) and am looking for an inexpensive graphics card for it. I can find the definition of “low profile graphics card” in terms of dimensions, but I cannot find the same for a SFF graphics card. Can you help with this?
A SFF graphics card has shorter length up to 210mm maximum. A 174mm long graphics card can fit 99% of the PC cases available in the market. A low profile graphics card can also have small form factor if it is shorter in length.
Hi
, thanks for all your great articles. I would like to ask a question similar to one I asked before about the Alienware Graphics Amplifier. You had recommended the Zotac GTX 1080 Ti mini. It costs about $800 now on Amazon. I called Alienware. They recommended the nVidia founders edition- only. costs now $1200 on Amazon and hard to get- not always available. they also said don’t get an overclocked gpu. the Zotac is slightly overclocked.
my son has a two year old Alienware x51 R3 desktop small form computer. has 16 GB of 2133 memory. it has Intel i7-6700K- Overclocked to 4.4, 256 M.2 /NVme with 2 TB HD. it has the nVidia GTX 960 with 2 GB GDDR5. i’m not sure what motherboard is inside.
why are they so insistent on the FE and no overclocking? My son is 13 and lives overseas with his mom. so i have to get it right as returning items is difficult. thanks again
I have seen overclocked cards work on it without any issues. They might be insisting on FE card because they want to play safe. I think Zotac GTX 1080 Ti mini should work without any issues, but if you are slightly worried then getting a FE card would be a good idea.
Hello I have a cooler master elite 110 case, i5 6600, asus h110 ITX MObo, 16 GB ram (yeah i know right?) and i wanted to know if the zotac 2060 will be a good option, I am worried about the heating part and yes also a good PSU to go with it.
It will be for my brother, I am giving my rig to him and need to upgrade the graphics card and a lot of games will be played over the weekend!
I would suggest you to get the ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB GDDR6 instead. It is cheaper, runs cooler, smaller and offers performance similar to RTX 2060.
Thanks so much for the reply. I’ll have to make a decision soon. the price is a factor, but more importantly I will be out of the country and trying to return an item more than 30 days after purchase can be tough. Thanks again.
p.s.- i saw that the Titan V, the new volta card, is out for about $3000 mostly for enterprise. any ideas when more gamer friendly cards will be out? thanks
I think they will be out this year only but no info on the exact dates. Keep visiting this blog for latest info on graphics cards and feel free to ask your queries anytime.
Hi,
Great article btw. I’m using the r7 360 on my mini-itx machine and it has been few years since i bought it. Kinda think i should update my gpu if i wanna play the latest title but i have a budget of usd 400 only . Which one should go for?
I suggest you to go for ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 Mini 3GB / 6GB.
You forgot the R9 Nano
Thanks for pointing out. I will include it in this list.
Hi,
thanx for the article
I am trying to build my first own pc and i am looking to use a inwin Chopin case. does any of these cards fit in there?
Sorry this case lacks graphics card support which means you cannot fit any graphics card in it.
Hi- I have a very tight space in a Dell OptiPlex 3020 slim tower. I am using a LP VTek HD7750 which is a great card. Just wondering if you can suggest anything worth upgrading to that will fit. Thanks.
https://topics-cdn.dell.com/pdf/optiplex-3020-desktop_owners-manual2_en-us.pdf
Hello,
I would suggest Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G. You can check out this card at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/. Do not ever go for the DDR4 variant of GT 1030 as it has much lower performance. Always get the GDDR5 version.
I am only looking for light gaming (Overwatch/Minecraft), what graphics card would you recommend (cheapest that can run both games at 720p 60fps, 1080p would be a bonus)?
Thanks!
I suggest you to get GeForce GT 1030 with GDDR5 VRAM. You can play both these games comfortably at 1080p with 60 FPS or more at medium graphics settings. Here are some good ones https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/.
P.S. – Do not buy the DDR4 variant of GT 1030 as its performance is crap.
Would it fit in a Dell Compaq 8200 Elite?
Is this the Ultra Slim model? Can you provide me the link?
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02781693
Mine has an i7-2600k
Okay then it has low-profile PCIe x16 slot which means a low profile card fit. I suggest you to get anyone of these; Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G or MSI GeForce GT 1030 2G LP OC or MSI GeForce GT 1030 2GH LP O or ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5.
Would this fit and run well?
Yes it will fit and work.
Not sure if I posted this link last time. This ZOTAC card would fit right ?
Yes i have received the link before too but i have to delete it for security reasons. And the answer is Yes the card will fit and work with your SFF PC.
Which would be the best option to put with an athlon 200ge, mini itx and the case is 9x9x4?
Can you please list your case model.
Hello, would you mind telling me what graphics card is compatible and is the best for my PC? My PC is the Ideacentre 510A from Lenovo. I bought a 420W PSU, but I am new to the PC community and i do not want to buy a graphics card that is not going to fit. The games I play on the PC is not that demanding and is usually older games, but I mod the games and the mods can be taxing on my PC which means I get around 20fps. The specifications for my case is:
Height: 14.4 inches x Width: 5.7 inches x Depth: 11.2 inches Weight: 15.1 pounds.
If you want more info here is my PC form Best Buy, https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-ideacentre-510a-15abr-desktop-amd-a12-series-12gb-memory-black-gunmetal/5740402.p?skuId=5740402. Thank You!
Hello, I suggest you to go for ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 OC. It is a pretty powerful budget graphics card that is compact in size and does not require external PCIe power connector. You can play latest games pretty comfortably with around ~60 FPS (on average) at very high graphics settings at 1080p on this card. You can check out this card at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/
Thank you. Have a good day!
Hi Akshat,
I have an old work PC which I want to upgrade. It’s a Dell optiplex 9020 sff, please suggest the best gpu I can get on this PC without having to upgrade stock/ existing psu.
Thank you
I suggest Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G or MSI GeForce GT 1030 2G LP OC. You can have a look at them here https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
Is that the best/most powerful one I can get for this psu? The newer cards mentioned above which requires 75watts will not work?
Yes and also Dell Optiplex 9020 cannot fit more powerful dual slot low profile graphics card. The best / most powerful graphics card that you can currently get in single slot low profile form factor is GeForce GT 1030.
Hi.
For a optplex 790 SFF i3; which it’s your best pick?
Thank you for your feedback
Best Regards,
Emanuel Mesquita
Hello, Dell optiplex 790 SFF can only fit low profile graphics card. The best would be Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Low Profile 4G or MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GT LP, and if you are on budget then you can go for Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G or ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 . You can check them out at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-low-profile-graphics-card/ and https://graphicscardhub.com/low-profile-single-slot-gpu/
Hi
thank you for your comment.
Purpose I have a question related to the power supply. The 1050 TI has a consuption of 75W, but needs a minimum of 300W of System Power supply.
After checking the specification of the 790SFF, I only have 240W.
So, it means that I can not use it?
Thanks
Best Regards,
Emanuel Mesquita
Well if it is a decent 240W PSU and you don’t have extra devices or components installed, then you can run GTX 1050 Ti comfortably as I have seen people doing it.
Here’s you mission Mr. Verma, should you choose to take it.
I am NOT a gamer. I am a futures trader, who uses a C++ software to process very fast, futures, stock, and options data from the trading centers around the world.

I would suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 OC. It is a good low power card that does not require PCIe power connectors. Check here https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/
namaskaram Akshat,
I will take a look at the ZOTAC gpu you suggested. Thank you for your feedback.
Hi
I recently received a HP EliteDesk 800 G1 and wish to repurpose it for HTPC / Steam server.
The detailed specifications are here – https://support.hp.com/sg-en/document/c03808397
I was wondering if ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 Low Profile is a suitable model.
Or if you have any other model to recommend.
Many thanks in advance.
It is a tower PC which means you can fit regular sized cards too. Yes GTX 1650 is a good choice for HTPC and the specific model that I suggest is ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 OC (https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/).
I’m so sorry I gave the wrong link.
I have the SFF version.
https://support.hp.com/sg-en/document/c03832938
Please advise if ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 Low Profile is a suitable model.
Or if you have any other model to recommend.
For SFF version, low profile GTX 1650 would be great. However, if you want something cheaper then ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 is also enough for a HTPC setup.
hi, i am looking for the most powerful SFF version of display card for gaming, which display card is suggested.
i am using Cooler Master Elite 110 case with H370N WIFI motherboard
I suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB GDDR6. It is only 174mm in length.
how about 2070 mini series from galax or zotac?
Your case offers up to 210mm clearance for graphics card. The Zotac RTX 2070 Mini is 211mm in length while the Galax one is only 190mm but is harder to find.
ok, Galax is quite easy to get in malaysia. Thx for the help.
What would be the minimum required to run P3D flight sim and the upcoming Microsoft FS2020 on a 40″ 1080p TV ( with a ryzen5 and 8gb DDR4)?
I will upgrade to the best card available in a year or two but I need something that won’t annoy me in the meantime
Many thanks
I would say a GTX 1050 Ti or GTX 1650 should be enough.
Thankyou
Great article and thank you for compiling all the various capabilities of the different cards – extremely useful and I honestly had no idea SFF graphics cards has come so far since I last looked at this.
Forgive my basic and somewhat vague/ noob’ish question but I wanted to know which of the cards above comes closest, in terms of performance to a NVIDIA GeForce 6800?
I have a specific reason behind my question. I’m trying to build a SFF machine to plug into a TV capable of running a specific game for my father who has recently been grounded (from flying planes) due to health reasons. I am planning on suprising him with a home machine / flight simulator set-up capable of running the new Microsoft Flight Simulator X and if it helps, has the following recommeded system requirements:
CPU: Pentium 4/Athlon XP or better
CPU SPEED: 2.4 GHz
RAM: 512 MB
OS: Windows XP
VIDEO CARD: 256 MB 100% DirectX 9.0c video card (NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or better)
TOTAL VIDEO RAM: 256 MB
3D: Yes
HARDWARE T&L: Yes
PIXEL SHADER: 2.0
VERTEX SHADER: 2.0
DIRECTX VERSION: 9.0c
SOUND CARD: Yes
FREE DISK SPACE: 14 GB
I suggest you to get the GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5. It is a budget graphics card and will be more than enough for this game. The specific models that I would like to suggest are Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G or ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5. These are SFF + Low Profile form factor models that can easily fit in any SFF or slim case. You can check them out at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
Awesome thanks very much!
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 not X sorry
For Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, I would suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 OC. It is SFF card that can run this game easily. It is also low on power consumption and does not require external PCIe power connectors from the PSU.
Hello Akshat; I have an HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF PC 250W. Intel 16 GB 2280 Optane Memory; Intel Core i5-8500 3.0 6C 65W; 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR4 DIMM; 1TB 7200 2.5. Very nice computer. However, I purchased an HP OMEN X 35 Curved display SKU# X3W57AA#ABA extremely nice monitor that has NVIDIA G-SYNC capability. Trouble is The graphics card is: AMD Radeon R7 430 2 GB 2DP. I would like to upgrade the graphics card, but it needs to be low profile as you know. What do you suggest? I’m hoping to SYNC the monitor and card. I have space for a double slot. Thank you in advance. Some suggest: MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1650 128 bit HDMI/DP/DVI 4 GB GDRR5 HDCP support Direct X 12 VR ready OC LP Model # G1650 4TPC. The dimensions would fit the chassis. Also 2 DP would be perfect. What do you suggest. Again Thank You in Advance
Michael
Hello Michael,
I would say ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 Low Profile would be perfect because it is slightly smaller in dimensions than the MSI GeForce GTX 1650 4GT LP OC, although MSI one would fit too. However, you won’t get two DisplayPort on both these low profile graphics cards.
Thank You so much…WOW what a dilemma…but a good one at that! Reviews of both are quite good. I’m going with the ZOTAC for the NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility.
Thank You Again, Akshat
Peace be with you!
Nice choice and you are always welcome.
Hi,
I have a HP Z240 sff with 16gb Ram. Trying to get a good video card that will allow me to play games like GTA 5. The case is about 10 cm wide and the old card is about 15cm long. Also have a 240 w power supply. Please let me know your choices, if possible budget options too. Thanks
A low profile GTX 1650 is what you need and I suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 Low Profile. Check it here https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/
Other GTX 1650 Low Profile options are:
1. Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1650 D5 Low Profile 4G
2. MSI GeForce GTX 1650 4GT LP
Hello Akshat
please forgive if you have answered this. I looked but didn’t see it. I’m not much of a computer guy, but I’m learning. I have Dell Optiplex SFF Intel i7, 16 gb Ram and a dell s2716dg monitor.
I picked up a Geforce gtx1050ti and it doesn’t fit. I found your article and It seems maybe you could give some advice on a GPU’s that will fit.
Thanks
Did you buy the low profile version?
yes I did. its to wide. the power supply is in the way.
Which model did you buy?
sorry left that out
optiplex 7070 sff
the graphics card was the low profile model, so that is probably where I made my mistake as well.
Can you provide me the link for the graphics card?
https://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-1050-ti/specifications
seems I only have 200 watt power supply and I havent been able to find any upgrade power supplies. plus there isnt enough space to put anything more than a single slot.
my monitor has g-sync and dp port.I was tyring to find something compatible with that
i found this on dell about my machine.
https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/my/en/mybsdt1/optiplex-7070-desktop/opti7070_sff_setup_specs/video?guid=guid-b6f3a320-b139-4634-b5c7-56401abf2bfc&lang=en-us
so maybe my best option is the AMD Raedon RX 550
Id like to be able to play some games (nothing to crazy) but also use fusion360 in the future
I think you should go with the GeForce GT 1030 (GDDR5 variant). The specific models that I would suggest are:
1. Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G
2. ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5
3. MSI GeForce GT 1030 2G LP OC
Check them out at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
Sooo, I have this exact desktop(https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c03846648) , what cards will fit in it and which one do you recommend the most. Thanks for the answer already.
also, will the rx 560 from this list fit in my small desktop?
No, it won’t as it is not a low profile graphics card and has higher power consumption.
You can fit a low profile graphics card that has PSU recommendation to up to 300W. The best card you can fit is the low profile GTX 1650 (https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/). The second best would be low profile GTX 1050 Ti (https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1050-ti/) and if you are on budget then go for the low profile GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 (https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/). Here are the best low profile graphics cards https://graphicscardhub.com/best-low-profile-graphics-card/,
Hi,
I have an HP compaq pro 6305 SFF,
What GPU can you recommend given it has only 240w PSU?
Can you also recommend a good ram and sdd that would be compatible for that.
Thank you.
I suggest Low Profile GeForce GT 1030 (GDDR5 version). The specific models that I would recommend are:
1) Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G
2) MSI GeForce GT 1030 2G LP OC
3) ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5
Check them at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
For SSD, I suggest Samsung 860 Evo 250GB 2.5-inch. For RAM, Kingston and Crucial are good brands.
Hi I have a Fujiysu Esprimo p757/e85+, Here’s the datasheet for it : https://sp.ts.fujitsu.com/dmsp/Publications/public/ds-ESPRIMO-P757-E85.pdf
Can you tell me what gpus can fit inside the case I can afford an rx 580/590 and be even splash a little bit more cash but obviously the 580 won’t fit in it.
It can support a full height graphics having length of 240mm. With the current 240W PSU, you cannot use RX 580. The best you can get is the GeForce GTX 1650 and here are the best models https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650/
Hi Akshat, recently decided to get into a bit of PC gaming, nothing major but some occasional use. My PC is quite old –
acer aspire t3-710
Intel i5 6400
8gb
Gt 730 gpu I think, which seems to be the weak link.
I only seem to have about 160mm play for a new cpu and was thinking of the 1650 mini but some of the reviews aren’t great so was going to up it to the 1650 super? I’ve order a new PSU to cope with the added power which is rated at 500w.
Don’t really know what I’m doing but your article was great and perfect for finding the small cards I need!
Is there a better option than the 1650 super with what I have or is the super perhaps not needed with how dated my PC is?
Thanks
Hello,
I think GTX 1650 SUPER would be a wise choice for your System. You can go for the ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER Twin Fan which is a compact GTX 1650 SUPER card (https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650-super/). I also think it is better to upgrade the RAM to 16GB for modern games.
Thanks man, really appreciate all this help and advice, so helpful!
I have an Acer Aspire Tc 330 Eb11. What GPU should i get to upgrade my Pc?
The AMD A9-9420 processor is too weak and the best card that can match it is the GeForce GT 1030 (GDDR5 version).
Ok thanks 🙂 I was planning to buy a GT 1030 anyways 🙂
You are welcome. Here are some of the best GT 1030 cards to choose from https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
I’m looking card for HP z220 sff , i think about quadro k620 with TDP 45w. What similar card will be also good with low TDP ?
I would say GeForce GT 1030 (GDDR5 version). You can check it at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
Hello Akshat
Among the Gigabyte 2060 Mini, Asus 2060 Phoenix, Palit 2060 StormX, Msi 2060 Aero ITX and PNY 2060 Single Fan which one would you consider best value?
Cheers
I would say Gigabyte Geforce RTX 2060 MINI ITX OC 6G.
I have an HP ProDesk 600 G1 with Intel i3-4130 3.4 ghz, 16gb ram, 500 gb hdd and also an external graphics card GTX 750 Ti 2gb(low profile one).
My question is given the proprietary psu … which i think it is at about 240-250W … what best Graphics card I can put in it that would still run(self powered from motherboard) of 4gb or 8gb ram Graphics card?
The best card that you can run on this system with the current PSU is the low profile GTX 1050 Ti. The specific models that I would suggest are Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Low Profile 4G or Zotac GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Low Profile. You may check at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1050-ti/
Hi Akshat, I have dell precision T1700 workstation small form factor which has Processor “Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1246 v3 @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)” , I use this for virtualization. Now i would also like to use this gaming as well , can you please suggest me supported graphics card for this configuration ?
I appreciate your help.
What GPU does it currently have? Onboard graphics?
Currently it has only integrated intel(r) hd graphics p4600 and no other graphics card.
Ok, the best card you can get for your system is the single slot low profile GeForce GT 1030 (GDDR5 version). The specific models I suggest are:
1) Gigabyte GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile 2G
2) MSI GeForce GT 1030 2G LP OC
3) ZOTAC GeForce GT 1030 2GB GDDR5
https://graphicscardhub.com/best-geforce-gt-1030/
Thanks for reply . Using any one of these Graphics card will i be able to play latest games like GTA V, mortal combat , far cry new dawn etc.
Yes but on low-medium settings.
Thank you so much for help 🙂
Hi,
Using ryzen 2200g on steel legend b450 with 16gb raam on matx casing.
Im looking for single fan 1660 super. What would be rhe best option for me? Using vs550 psu.
TIA!!
I would suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER Twin Fan. It is a dual fan card but is compact and can fit in smaller cases easily. Check at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1660-super/
Hi Akshat,
I have a HP ProDesk 400 G6 i5-9500 SFF. It only has one PCI slot. I am not sure which cards could fit in. I would like to have a card with some power: a 1030 geforce would fit, but I would like to have more horse-power. Any sugguestions or do you need more info?
Thank and regards,
Mich
Well, GT 1030 (GDDR5 version) is the best you can have for your system.
Thanks mate
Hello,
I have Dell Inspiron 3880 with dimensions ( HxWxD 12.7x6x11.5 in.) and looking to VFM graphics card . Can i use :
ZOTAC Gaming Geforce GTX 1650 OC 4GB GDDR5 or
Zotac GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Edition ZT-P10510B-10L 4GB PCI Express Graphics Card.
I hope 200 W SMPS would be OK and in mini cabinet these would fit fine, please confirm best card per price and performance.
You need a better power supply for these cards, preferably 400W or higher.
Can the GTX 1650 Low Profile handle my HP Elitedesk 800 g1 Small Form Factor that has an
Intel i7-4790, 4gb ram (upgrading to 8gb soon), Stock 240-W psu?
Thank you in advance!
Well, it can work on 240W PSU depending on your PC load but I would not recommend taking that risk.
Will the AMD Cards run on Gigabyte Intel Boards?? or do i have to go with Nvidia??? So i am a Newbie. Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz in a mini case….Best AMD Card for a Non Gamer – I just need it run 60hz in 4k….
Yes AMD cards have no issues running on Gigabyte Intel Boards. What motherboard & PSU do you have and how much is your budget for the card? Also, why do you want an AMD card only?
I have a Gigabyte Z370 HD3P-CF Motherboard with an Intel I7 Processor in a Mini Case so it must be a single fan short card and not tall… What do you reccomend price range 200 – 500 US Dollars???
I would suggest Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1650 D6 OC 4G. It is a compact GTX 1650 card and can easily fit in an smaller case. Check at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-gtx-1650-gddr6/
PowerColor also made a Vega Nano and there’s even water blocks for it. Way better than the old R9 Nano
I have a MPG Trident 3 10SC-004US with the 2060super I was wondering if there was a better gpu? I’m thinking about upgrading but can’t find anything that will fit that’s better?
I don’t think so.
Hi Akshat, which card would you recommend for this case?…. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TMRGV6D/
I will be using a mini itx motherboard.
I would suggest ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER Twin Fan.
Lenovo thinkcentre sff

I’m showing this was last updated January 7th 2022 and the PowerColor 6500 ITX 4GB is not on your list.
no Gigabyte RTX 4060 Low Profile? Best card for gaming and ITX.
It is included in the low profile graphics card list post at https://graphicscardhub.com/best-low-profile-graphics-card/
