New GPU time - Dell's case/mobo

Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my GPU in the forthcoming months. Little problem is that my case + mobo is manufactured by Dell, thus many have told me that dual-slotted GPUs will physically not fit into the case.

My case is the 760 MT, pics here https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883158424&cm_re=dell_optiplex_760-_-83-158-424-_-Product

 

The best single-slotted GPU seems to be the 750ti, but I need something more powerful.

I can spend around $220 - don't need anything extreme.

 

PSU is CM's GX450W, and it has a 1 6-pin connector

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Don't trust Dell with their claims. They say single slot (probably) so that you don't cover other slots on the motherboard. If you have the space and PSU, go for whatever card you want.

I fit a MSI Armor OC RX 470 in my Dell Studio XPS 8100 if that helps.

1050Ti is the best you can get.

The Zotac Mini should fit fine.
