Need a low profile graphics card that can run League of Legends.

[TheGamevv]

Hey guys, I have an Emachine El1352 slimline PC. I'm not interested in buying a new PC to play League and I just want to upgrade the graphics card so I can play the game, even if it's at low settings. Anything is better than the onboard graphics that I currently have... but my question is, which card would be best for my slim PC with a Powersupply of 250 W. I know it's difficult to find a card like this but I'm not sure if these two cards:

Would do the job for me. I checked my PC and I have a PCI-E x16 slot. Can anyone help please?

if you have a little time perhaps this will make it to newegg or tigerdirect soon?

Yeah that looks excellent. I'm still open to any suggestions, though.

The emachine is very small. Does it support a full PCI express card? Is there even an expansion slot on the back? It's a Mini ITX case.

I would confirm if it even has a PCIe x16 slot. The powersupply is not going to be large enough for any dedicated graphics card, I would be surprised if it's over 250W.
It's only 220W. I don't think the 750 Ti will fit comfortably in the case, and you will risk crashing under load.

 

[TheGamevv]

Yes there is an expansion slot. It also does support a full dedicated card. I spoke to someone else who has my same PC and puts cards in them and they run games fine.

I just don't know which low profile card would be best.

 

[swifty_morgan]

how many slots?

will a double wide slot card fit?

you could try an r7-250 or 250x. I think those are the fastest cards now that don't need a power plug ( and you'll have to look at the pictures of whatever you look at to confirm that. there may be exceptions.

a 6770/6750/7750/6670/6650 would all be choices........... i see by the links you provided the cost. these last cards will be a little faster than the ones you posted but be near the same price. you have to look at everything.
