@StephW27,

 

Also, please measure the distance between the middle of the black PCIe x16 slot and the CPU's heatsink copper heat pipe:

Sorry, my bad: see my previous message -I got my graphics card orientation wrong.

 

We'll find you the best GPU using the stock (240-watt) power supply.

 

Kind Regards,

Okay great thank you so much, I will measure the distance. Also, I feel like anything other than a 1050 will not be able to run in my computer as I will not have enough power supply to run that graphics card. Are you sure that a 240 watt power supply could run a 3050 or 6400 graphics card??

@StephW27,

 

Yes, I believe they will, especially these two cards: the low-profile RX 6400 (53-watt TDP) and the low-profile RX 550 (50-watt TDP):

@StephW27,

 

You are very welcome!

 

I would like to add one more low-power graphics card option, the 47-watt TDP PNY Quadro P1000 4GB GDDR5:

Which you can purchase for $77.50 via Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/PNY-QUADRO-P1000-Graphic-Card/dp/B0BPZWR6X9/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3RPLQCU6HFPHB&dib....

@StephW27,

 

Btw, just to make sure: you mentioned "my tower" in your previous message, is your PC a tower or an SFF (small form factor) PC as you said it was?

 

Kind Regards,

My apologies, you are right. It is not technically a tower. Yes, I have a small form factor PC. Thank you for clarifying!
