[SOLVED] Is this GT-1030 compatible with my prebuilt PC motherboard?

[Deleted member 2872465]

I'm looking to upgrade from my i7-6700's integrated graphics to a GT-1030. I currently own a prebuilt office PC.

This is the PC:

HP ENVY Desktop - 750-287c PC Product Specifications | HP® Customer Support

I want to upgrade it to a Gigabyte GT-1030, but I'm wondering if it's compatible with the Odense motherboard on the PC.

If this GPU isn't compatible, please let me know of another one which is.

If it has a PCIe x16 slot, then yes, it should work.

Yes, and physically looks like there is enough room.

Yes, and physically looks like there is enough room.

Should I get the standard Gigabyte version or the low profile version? I feel like the low-profile version would be more reliable with the type of PC I'm using.

Well, it looks like you have room for either. Larger heatsink = better cooling = better performance.

The 1030 won't be much better than the built in GPU. I would go for the 1050Ti at minimum. At least it's capable of some 1080p action.
Here are the builds for that at userbenchmark. You can look in the GPU performance column and see what I mean. The 750Ti there is much more powerful than the 1030.

The GTX 1650 is much better than the 1050Ti if you can swing that.
At this power level a single fan full height card is all you need.
