Literally all current graphics cards go in a PCIe X16 slot.

 

What you were told in the previous thread is that you need a card which gets all of its power solely from the PCIe slot, without external power cables, because your PSU doesn't have any. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

So it doesn't have any external power connectors? 

 

The two major low profile GPUs that are worth considering: RTX 4060 Low Profile and the RTX 3050 6GB Low Profile. The 4060 LP will require an 8 pin PCIe connector, so likely not what you're talking about, so the 3050 is your best option.
