[SOLVED] GTX 760 Compatibility? Will it fit?

[BugzyHvH]

Motherboard: H61M-DS2 DVI
Power Supply (PSU): QUIET ARTIC BLUE 750W ATX PSU 8 PIN -MOLEX - PCI-E & 120mm BLUE FAN POWER SUPPLY

Had to copy paste, sorry.

But yeah the psu comes with a 6x2+2 pin molex (so there's 12 in total) so there should be enough for the card.

I'm just here wondering if the card will "plug" into the motherboard.. is my pci-e compatible with the motherboard?

Looking to buy this card here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSI-GeFo...4&hash=item3d917b42c6:g:huYAAOSw4yJdV-8r#rwid

Do run cards with adapters. Also that PSU is very very poor quality. Adapters + Poor PSU = FAIL!

I went ahead and purchased the 1050 ti listed below, card should fit right?

I also never had a problem with the psu, i did once where it burnt the ports for my gpu but that was my fault. I punched the second monitor which was kinda dying already and it caused the electricity in my house to cut out. Monitor died along with the gpu. I'll look to buy a new pc anyway once i get a job of course.

Could you confirm for me if this card will fit though? my only concern at the moment.

Nah, that one's a fake. It's usually a rebadged GTX 500 series card.

If you do get it to fit, a way to confirm the card's ID is to use Gpu-Z.

Are you 100% sure? Could the guy just be selling it for less? please respond because else i'll refund the order. I don't want a fake gpu.

What is a decent card i can get in my budget limit ($60)? Just looking to play csgo

Thanks, would this be real then? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSI-GeFo...4&hash=item3d917b42c6:g:huYAAOSw4yJdV-8r#rwid

So what about the card i linked? What is wrong with it. It's much faster and going around the same price

That one's legit, and should fit the motherboard, unless you've have one of those restrictive small form factor cases.
The other issue, as already pointed out by @Dark Lord of Tech , is the power supply... I picked out cards that do not require additional connections to be on the safe side.
Unless you can replace that psu, I wouldn't recommend going with stronger cards... that's just playing with fire.

So should i just go for this one? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSI-R775...815613?hash=item444191453d:g:FcAAAOSwOvRdMdD-

And also, i was running a 960 fine up until my eletrcitity cut out and burnt the ports for my gpu somehow. But then again it was a faulty monitor so i'm not sure.

That is worrisome. What was faulty about this monitor?
That sounds like something the power supply could do.

one of the lighs was dead, blue line down the monitor not sure maybe one of the lights died lmaoo
but then again, as soon as i punched my monitor, that's when the monitor died along with the gpu

 

[BugzyHvH]

Could i get a link to a decent psu then? this one did cost me $40+ and i can't believe its bad.
Link me something compatible please

If you stick with cards that don't require additional power connections, it should be fine.
It's at your own risk if you choose to use a more power hungry card. Bad psus can harm your PC if you push them hard enough.
