Wait. Are you planning to attach it in place of the wifi adapter? If yes, try to find at most, something like an rx 560 or 1050 since that dual core cpu and the bandwidth limitation of that slot will literally reduce performance anyways. But depending on your budget, you can go higher.

If that is then, just buy the best gpu you can get since it is literally just a graphics card in advance. Just get what you want that is in your budget.

:) Thanks a lot guys. Love you ❤️

I think it doesnt. But if it has one of those express card slots, it might be easier. If notz it will be that annoying m.2 adapter with literally reduce performance by 20% and remove access to wifi.

Im with the mentaility of "IF IM NOT SURE IF ITS ENOUGH COOLING, GO OVERKILL"

 

CURRENT PC SPECS    

CPU             : Ryzen 5 3600 (Formerly Ryzen 3 1200)

GPU             : ASUS RX 580 Dual OC (Formerly ASUS GTX 1060 but it got corroded for some odd reasons)

GPU COOOER      : ID Cooling Frostflow 120 VGA (Stock cooler overheats even when undervolted :()

MOBO            : MSI B350m Bazooka

MEMORY          : Team Group Elite TUF DDR4 3600 Mhz CL 16
STORAGE         : Seagate Baracudda 1TB and Kingston SSD
PSU             : Thermaltake Lite power 550W (Gonna change soon as i dont trust this)
CASE            : Rakk Anyag Frost
CPU COOLER      : ID-Cooling SE 207
CASE FANS       : Mix of ID cooling fans, Corsair fans and Rakk Ounos (planned change to ID Cooling)
DISPLAY         : SpectrePro XTNS24 144hz Curved VA panel
MOUSE           : Logitech G603 Lightspeed
KEYBOARD        : Rakk Lam Ang

HEADSET         : Plantronics RIG 500HD

Kingston Hyper X Stinger

 

and a whole lot of LED everywhere(behind the monitor, behind the desk, behind the shelf of the PC mount and inside the case)

reducing performance is not a problem. I will move to a pc within 4 or 5 months.
