Best Card for Mini PC?

[Direkt_EX]

I'm trying to help upgrade my friend's rig to something able to play overwatch but it has to be low profile and GDDR3 as far as i can see. if anyone has and suggestions that would be appreceated. I can look up more specs if you need me too.

[Mr.Meerkat]

When you say low profile, do you mean single slot? Or is a dual slot GPU fine? :D

How much is your budget?

[gundamMC]

r7 240 would be fine... but would only run at low settings. There isn't really much to choose from if you want GDDR3. Well... there's also gt 610 XD

[Direkt_EX]

the budget is under 150 or so. we're thinking of just going buy GDDR3 cause that's what CPUID stated when i ran it. but anything that can run Overwatch cause the current one can't detect the hardware.

[Mr.Meerkat]

Low profile as in what? Low profile PCIe bracket or single slot card or what? I would recommend a RX460 but I'm not sure whether it fits in your PC or not :/

[Direkt_EX]

let me look on it and i'll message when i get that info

[Mr.Meerkat]

Alright sure :D (sorry for being so condensing...)

If you have really tight budget, you should get an RX 480 OR 470. If you have really big budget then get a R9 Fury X nano :)

zotac has a mini 6gb GTX 1060

Best low profile card on the market is GTX 750 Ti
Example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127836
Unless you live in japan, where you can get a GTX 950: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01GDK28QO/

You should wait for the GTX 1050 for LP (or RX 460, but sadly there aren't that "many" LP AMD cards so who knows), also if you don't know the rest of system's specs it's not a good idea to upgrade like that

Card's memory doesn't influence on compatibility, the pc only needs to have a PCI-e slot. Also you need to check his pc because some prebuilts only have clearance for single slot cards.

I am away from the dorms tonight but when i go back there i'll post the CPUID info from the computer tomorrow.
also thank you 79 Potatoes, I'll look into those.
