I use a presentation tool called MediaShout, which requires a more powerful driver than the Intel HD Graphics Card that I currently have. Is the Gigabyte GTX 1050 video card compatible with my system?

Hello @Ingenue 

 

Don't know if this will help, but I will offer it as something to consider...

Currently the way your system specs read, you cannot add a 1050 unless you upgraded your power supply to at least 300w.

It currently uses a 180w uATX PSU. You would have to find a Micro ATX PSU that will fit the space (length) given in the case.

I don't have access to your model, so you will also have to be aware of the space available for the graphics card. Measure the length available.

It might be that with the small amount of space available, you might have to use a single slot low profile card as most 1050s come double slotted. That is the removable slot on the back of the case.

If you cannot find a 1050 as its measurements don't fit the space, you would have to consider a lesser card like a 1030. That is, if a GTX 1030 will meet the requirements of your program.
