Inno3d GT220 ddr2 fit in GX620 with 305Watt PSU?

hi

I have tower Optiplex GX620 (pentium 4 Ht 3.2Ghz,2Gb Ram,80Gb HDD,300watt PSU)



can inno3D GT220 fit in GX620?|||hi mate

your motherboard will support the gt220 however you will need to buy a low profile version of the card due to the small form factor case... however even though your Optiplex GX620,s case is small there should be a GT220 that will fit..... for example i have found the "

ASUS GeForce GT 220 Low Profile 1GB GDDR2 HDMI/VGA/DVI PCI-Express"( http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/prods… ) which should have no problems fitting in your case and it has a decent cooler and some acceptable specifications

however for the same price as you will pay for the low profile GT220 you could afford the "Asus GeForce GT 430 1024MB GDDR3 Low Profile PCI-Express Graphics Card"( http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Component… ) ... this is more powerful than the GT220 and around the same price

its specifications include a 700mhz core clock and 1gb of gddr3 memory running at 1600mhz... theres a 128bit memory interface and 96 stream processors... and with direct x 11 and pixel and shader model 5.0 support ( compared to just direct x 10 in the GT220) this makes a far better card for the same price

and in regards to the power requirements well the GT430 requires a 350w or better psu however dell power supplys are pretty robust and when they state 300w you get that much unlike other psu,s which state 300w and you actually get just 250w.... so you should be ok with your dell 300w psu... however to be sure check your power usage by using the "eXtreme Power Supply Calculator Lite v2.5" at http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalcul…

simply enter your pc,s components and then hit the "calculate" button to see how much power ( in watts ) your pc actually uses... you may be pleasantly suprised.... !

i hope this has helped however any problems let me know

good luck mate !|||Yes it will fit. It is a very small graphics card imo. Just make sure you have a pci-e slot and you will be good to go. You already have enough power with 305 watts



@ brian thanks for taking a look at the case ^ didn't check to see if it was a low profile case ^
