Upgrading to a GTX 1650 Soon

I'm here with my prebuilt PC, and hoping to upgrade soon to a GTX 1650. It's got a 280W PSU and I'm hoping that will be enough, since I have no HDD to use up power and the CPU's TDP is only 65W.

 

Are any of these deals on Amazon good, or am I better off looking somewhere else? (UK btw)

 

I would probably need an ITX size one - my prebuilt's case is a 'Mini Tower' and is a lot shorter than a standard size.

i think most websites are offering a similar price for those cards (around the 140 range) try pc part picker as they compare the prices of loads of different websites as i might be missing one.

the 1650 is not connected to psu. it is connected to motherboard. motherboard delivers 75w. your system will consume under 200w so you are fine.

 

 

all of those cards are decent(ish) just the one wiht the best look

QUOTE ME  FOR ANSWER.

The case isn't too shallow, it's normal width
