Will this GPU Fit in my PC?

[kuplxx]

Hello! I was thinking about upgrading my computers graphics card and I was wondering if the AMD Radeon RX 460 2GB GDDR5 PCI-e 3.0 x16 HDMI, DisplayPort & DVI would fit inside my Hp Compaq 8200 Elite SFF Pc.
Thanks.

@kuplxx,

Welcome to our peer-to-peer HP Community Forum!

I'm afraid the card you referenced won't fit inside your PC.

You'll need a so-called "low-profile" card, such as this one.

So can I use this:

MSI GT 1030 2 GB DDR4

@kuplxx,

Yes, that will fit, but the graphics performance will be underwhelming.

I looked at benchmarking websites and they recommend partnering it with an i5-2500 or i5-2400 and it should run games you wish to run smoothly.. Is that true or is this graphics card just not good enough? If so please could you list some gpus that are low profile, can fit in my pc and run Fortnite and Valorant on 145+ fps on low settings.

Thanks

@kuplxx,

Given the stock 240-watt power supply in your HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF, the best graphics card option would be a low profile GTX 1650, such as shown here: ASUS GTX 1650 Low Profile Specs | TechPowerUp GPU Database.

@kuplxx,

And for gaming purposes, you should consider upgrading your processor to an i7-2600, i7-2600K, or better still: an i7-2700K.

Would this fit in my Hp Compaq 8200 Elite SFF Pc? And also, would this be good at partnering it with i5-2400 to run games like fortnite and roblox?

Gigabyte GeForce GT 710 GV-N710D5SL-2GL 2 GB GDDR5

@kuplxx,

No, I'm afraid not: a GT 710 scores even lower than a GT 1030: UserBenchmark: Nvidia GeForce GT 710 vs 1030.

Look, I really, really wouldn't go any less than a (low profile) GTX 1050 Ti, such as this one for sale by an eBay-United Kingdom Seller: MSI Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Low Profile LP VR ready Graphics card | eBay.

I understand that budget can be a big deal, but I would most strongly caution against buying a sub-par graphics card that would suck at playing Fortnite and Roblox...

Would it be best to buy a new computer instead, that has better specs?
