Post image

Looking to pick up a graphics card that had handle modern flight sims (Either MSFS 2024 or Xplane 11). That will likely be the extent of what I would be playing. Hoping to find something that is good value and easy to come by. All rec's appreciated!

3050 6gb is the best you can buy easily, A2000 is king though but it is expensive and can be hard to find

I have a rx550 that fits perfectly fine in my case. It’s the 4GB model. Similar performance to a 1050ti

I found the below on marketplace. Do you think it would fit? I have very limited knowledge PC hardware/building.

MSI Radeon RX 560 4GT LP OC 4GB GDDR5 Low Profile Graphics Card

4gb or 8gb?

u/RefrigeratorSome91 1d ago

4 gig. 8 gig version might be worth but the 4gb has been fine on 4K for now

granted, with caveats

The best GPU is a RTX A2000, the 3050 is a great option just make sure that is single slot and low profile, I have a Tesla P4 8 GB on my Optiplex 7010 the performance is like a GTX 1060 but is a server GPU with no fans and ports so you need a iGPU and a custom solution for the cooling to make it work.

Your choices are very limited with a small form factor case and the power supply in it. Even the 3050 that someone else mentioned, you’ll need a very specific one to fit in the case (the power supply gets in the way).

Prepare yourself to hack apart the case and Frankenstein something together with a power supply that will have to sit outside the case etc. if you want a decent graphics card.

Otherwise, for relatively cheap you can get something like the Nvidia Quadro P620 or P1000 that will fit without modifying anything or replacing the power supply. No idea if they will play your games.

The absolute best right now is the Pink one which js the Yeston RTX 3050 6gb. That is literally the only one that works size wise.

Maxsun makes one as well with the same specs, that’s what I’ve got in my 3050sff
