Product: HP Compaq 6200 Pro SFF PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
HP Compaq 6200 Pro SFF.  Looking to put in a Graphics Card into the PCIe x16 slot.  Need to know the max. capacity that my PC will handle for inserting a graphics card.   I would like to find the best graphics card that my PC will be able to handle.  The PSU is only 240w on this PC. 

 

Thanks,

That's gonna hurt your options. The slot is low profile as well. I linked you to the specs with your other question. I would stick with a video card that does not need a power connector and draws power solely from the pci-e bus. This article recommends the nVidia GeForce GTX 750 ti, which is pretty powerful and is bus powered:

But you need to find one that has a low profile bracket, which is not common. But here is one:

The link you provided for the "GIGABYTE GV-N75TOC-2GL G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Video Card, Support up to 4 Monitors" has a Minimum power supply 400W, which is over the 240W limit of my PSU.  Also, I don't have a CI Express 3.0 slot.
