not going to be possible with that i3 regardless of whatever gpu you get

with a mini tower and the weak 240w power supply you are limited to single slot low profile card

gtx 750 max


for ultra 1080p 50 - 60 fps

you need at least an i5 + a gtx 1060


which means a new bigger case, a new power supply + the best i5 your motherboard supports and a gtx 1060

missed the cx600

you upgraded the psu to a cx 600 in a mini tower?


because if you fit in a psu like that you DONT have the mini tower

 

[AbrarKhAn111]

ok, then see above


you have the MID TOWER



that changes things


basically you are limited by your cpu on what the best gpu you can have is


as it stands you can drop in a rx 470 and get decent performance



if you upgrade to an i5 then you can get a gtx 1060 or rx 580 and get the fps you want at ultra 1080p gaming

Sorry for wrong replies I want to know which generation core i5 I need, is 3rd generation core i5 best to play gtx 1060? And which graphics card i3 can support?
