Hi all,
Been refreshing my Pc's at home, long story short, getting rid of the old ones and aquired a small PC with an Asus P8B75-M LX motherboard. It's PSU (which I cant really make out clearly without removing it, cant right now), says its rated at 264/300w. Not sure what the lower wattage means.
Now, my question is, the case is quite a small one (mini-itx iirc?), and there is very little space for a graphics card in it's PCI-e connector.
Are there any graphics cards which are of a smaller form factor/thinner/less power consumption than the norm, which can still provide decent oomph if I do decide to game on the PC? Most of my gaming is done on console these days, but i'd hate to not have the option available for PC gaming.
(Coming from a Q6600 / 8GB / 4890 here, the new tower is an i5 with 8GB)
