[SOLVED] WTB a good graphic card for optiplex 755 Mini tower PC

[Mooziefy]

Need a good graphic card for my optiplex 755. i have 305 w power supply.
shouldn't be so expensive because i am not much of a gamer but play very few games and those too wont be heavy ones. but it should have a hdmi slot. and should be atleast 512 mb.
PC specifications:
core 2 duo 3.0 GHz
320 Gb hard drive
2 gb ram ( i can update that if needed)

I would appreciate anyone who helps me on this.

Thanks

it would have been better if u have mentioned the price range.
anyway
9800GT 3.5-4K
HD4850 4-4.5K
GTS250 4.5-5K

pick anyone in you range

or if u want in a new category (newer but not necessarily better than above^)
then
gt 240/640 4.5-5K
or better
5670 5-5.5K
5750 5.5-6K

i heard theres a space issue in optiplex 755. are all these cards fixable?

 

[wajid05]

Hd 6670 7-8k
Hd 7750 11 k

For a lower budget the cards are written above and they are fixable

I have had the same pc and same issue and searched alot.
I found out that the best card which can fit is 7750

I wouldn't go with anything else other than the 7750 or something low like GT 9800 purely because the PSUs used on these machines are really old and also weak plus is your PC a mid-tower or smaller desktop like case?

HD 5770 ...Best Bet.....!
GTS250.....2nd Option...!

Mini tower which is the biggest in the series.

HD 7750 requires 400w or greater psu as written on the site.

 

[Behrox]

400w is the power output req for your whole PC so its said keeping in mind the most power hungry config a good 300w should be able to handle it IMO

remember though I said 7750 was the max I would go on that PSU
