Posted June 30, 2022 Hello there, I am thinking about getting a new graphics card for my prebuilt pc, but I don’t know what graphics card slot I have. how can I figure this out? Also I have integrated graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 730. and what would be a good graphics card for a budget of around $150 usd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 30, 2022 Open the PC and look at the physical slot. It's probably a single pci-e16x slot that fits half height(low profile) cards if it's a pre-built with a small case. normal at the top, low profile at the bottom.

Posted June 30, 2022 UHD 730 shows up as 11th / 12th gen Intel. Motherboard mfr / model would be more helpful, but I'd say it's a pretty good possibility this is a PCIex16 slot. I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below *** MODERATE TO SEVERE AUTISTIC, COMPLICATED WITH COVID FOG Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.

I bought a brand-new Asus TUF GTX1650S-4GB-OC for $160 on sale. Of course, that was two years ago. EDIT: There is the new GTX1630, but most consider it a joke. Edited June 30, 2022 by An0maly_76 Revised, more info I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below *** MODERATE TO SEVERE AUTISTIC, COMPLICATED WITH COVID FOG Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.
