Suggestions for small gpu's

Go to solution Solved by Bazilias,

Case: Doesn't matter as long as it is better than your current one :D (You don't have to change it)

GPU: AMD Radeon Fury X, Nano, GTX 970 ITX, R9 380 ITX
PSU: EVGA 500B 80+ Bronze (500 Watt)

I'm planning to buy a new gpu, however the pc that i have now is a pre-built one. It's still pretty quick though. i'm surprised that my graphics card can actually get a high FPS (BF4 on ultra with Anti-Aliasing or AC Black Flag on ultra) But new games that i want to play, like AC Syndicate or ARK doesn't cut the mustard. So i want to upgrade to a faster one. However it's not the money thats the problem but it is the case size. I attached a picture of it and i was hoping that someone could see if anyone knows a gpu that could fit in there. I know i also need to upgrade the PSU if i change the GPU, but thats not a problem because my PSU is removable. So any suggestions on a gpu that is faster and that might fit is welcome.

I'd suggest getting a new case if money isn't a problem.

 

But if you want a small GPU you could get a Fury X or R9 nano

Well, i don't really want to take out my parts and put it into another case, because i'm afraid i damage the parts. And the motherboard is very hard to remove. But thanks for the input.

Ok, that seems like a good deal, but is that PSU powerful enough? i thought that the ITX-970 was a power hungry card.

budget: Sapphire Radeon R9 380 ITX

second best: GTX 970 ITX

ultimate gaming: AMD Radeon R9 Nano (AMD makes all the cards, the vendors just sell it for them)
