Graphics card

[crhabeck]

I am upgrading to use the PC to so some video rendering.  Upgrading present 180W PS to 400W and want an inexpensive decent card if such àn animal exists.

Want one that I can use the GPU to so most of the work.  I would like to keep the second slot free to add a video capture card.

Have 32GB RAM and 1 TB m.2 nvme.

Thank you

@crhabeck,

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

[EDIT:] Given the budget restriction, with a 400-watt power supply upgrade, I would consider an RTX 3050, such as this purchase example via eBay: ASUS Phoenix GeForce RTX 3050 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card PH-RTX3050-8G | eBay.

My bad: I was thinking about an HP ProDesk 600 G4 MT.  The challenge is to find you a card that will actually fit in a Small Factor Form (SFF) case.  The pickings are pretty slim, if your budget is minimal. There is the GTX 1650 low profile, RX 6400 (also low profile), and one of the best low profile graphics card options, the RTX A2000.

Do some research to see if any of these cards have the graphics horsepower to do what you want them to do, and search for purchase options online, including eBay, and see if any fall within your budget constraints.

Hope this was helpful.

Thanks for your response.  I will look at them.  It is a little tough figuring out which cards will work.
