Hey all,

So I got a Gigabyte GA-H61N-D2V motherboard but cant find a graphics card with the right pci connector. I have attached the picture of the motherboard from Gigabyte's website.

I would like the price to be fairly low but the graphics to be better thanthe intel hdgraphics that comes with the intel core i3 2120 @ 3.3GHz

 

Thanks in advance,

Chris

well the only things you can put in there i would expect to perform worse then the IGPU you already have tbh. you are looking at getting a GPU not even made in the 2000s

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

I use the pc for light games such as Doom (2016) and I do a lot of coding as part of my college work and have issues running virual studio and such. my brother uses it to play minecraft with like 120 odd mods and keeps complaining about the frames and occational gets opengl errors.

That is a fairly old ITX motherboard.  You are going to be hard press to find a GPU that will work with the PCI slot.

 

You are probably better off either getting a different motherboard or upgrading the CPU and motherboard that has a PCI-E slot.
