Hello,

The original graphic card is dead. Is it worthy to replace it? What will be the best graphic card compatible with this old desktop to play overwatch?  Thank you.

@younoh,

 

I reviewed your post and I understand that the graphics card on the computer is dead and you want to upgrade the graphics card.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

I see that your computer has a PCI Express x16 3.0 slot and you can install any graphics card which uses this interface. However, you might have to upgrade the power supply as well based on the graphics card you choose.

 

In my opinion, purchasing a new computer would be a better option than upgrading the graphics card on this computer. The computer you have is more than 5 years old and it might be a little difficult the find a compatible graphic card for your computer.

 

I hope that answers your question and you have a great day!
