Was looking at some of the low profile 750Ti's for a M-ITX build im planning. What other good options are there for a small GPU?

 

EDIT: Cheaper is better. All id be playing would be Dota 2.

My Rigs:

Case:
 Corsair Air 240 , CPU: i7-4790K, Mobo: ASUS Gryphon Z97 mATX,  GPU: Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970, RAM: G.Skill Sniper 16GB, SSD: SAMSUNG 1TB 840 EVO, Cooling: Corsair H80i PCPP: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/b/f2TH99SFF HTPC

Was probably planning just a G3258, trying to keep it as cheap as possible.

APU could be an option. I forget, if I get an APU, they can work together with an AMD card if i got one too later yeah?

Yeah, a amd a10 7870k or 7850k (or if you really want to, a 7890k when it comes out) apu works good, and you can dual with a 250 which you can find in low profile form, which boosts performance even more

3258 + 750ti = perfect low budget pc

1080p mid settings 45-60fps.

Yeah, but now with the 7890k out dualing with a 260 might be possible

Even the G3258, without a GPU, is already enough to power that game. If you are looking to go super cheap now (with the possibility to upgrade), then that's a great option.

 

Otherwise, if you want a bit more juice and don't intend to ever touch that PC again, while still being on the cheap, go with the APU route.
