I have an HP Elitedesk 800 G1, will an MSI GTX 1050 2GB low profile work in this machine? if not is there a way to put a better PSU in it? as HP states it has a 320W PSU, I only have a 240W PSU and can't find a 320W low profile unit, I have the Intel core i5 4570 and am currently running an old PNY 1GB Quadro K600, which is only good for casual computing, but I want to run The Crew 2, if the GTX 1050 won't work, are there any other cards that can run it at medium settings that will work in this machine?
 
Solution
If you've got a low profile card in there now, the GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti should work fine. I doubt your PSU will be a problem. It should have 2 x +12v rails rated for the full 240W. The 1050/1050 Ti is a pretty low wattage card.
