Please help, my computer model is Acer Aspire ATC-705-UC52.

I have no idea what im doing, just looking for a compatible graphics card (preferrably Nvidia/AMD) because mine is an Intel Graphics 4600 which im pretty sure is a built-in since I tried to fit a NvidiaGTX750TI in my computer and it wouldn't fit because of the connector on the right. I never really saw the intel graphics card though. I'm probably willing to upgrade a power supply or something like that but i have an intel i7-4970k @3.60 ghz, so i'm not willing to change that. My budget is roughly $170 and under, and if you know anything please reply! Thank you all :)
 
it looks as though you're gonna have to do some interesting things to get most graphics cards to fit in that. i would wait until the gtx 1050/1050ti is released, you will be able to get a small form factor version that most likely will fit. it looks as though Acer located the hard drive in a peculiar way where it will interfere with most GPUs that are standard length.
 


I believe he can move the hard drive up so it's not in the way of the GPU anymore.

The smaller GTX 1050/tis should be able to fit in there without too much issue I believe, and they won't require an extra power connector.

Also @OP, I forgot to mention, the Intel Graphics is built into the CPU, so you can't see it because it is the CPU.
 


I'm 11 years old so I cant just take a picture and upload it, sorry. The 750TI didn't fit due to the fact that it was long due to the two fans and it kept hitting a blue connector which my dad said needed to be plugged in (we unplugged it)
Any graphics card recommendations, though? I play CS:GO a lot and due to it actually relying on the graphics card instead of a game like Minecraft is relies almost 100% on the graphics card. I can take a nvidia gt or some small graphics card with one fan I'm guessing.

If any of you have skype then you can tell me and we can communicate faster there.
 
I don't know what you being 11 has to do with you not being able to upload a picture, but still allowing you to skype with strangers on the internet.

But it doesn't matter if you provide a picture or not, just take a ruler and measure the distance between the brackets and the hard drive cage, GPUs can vary in length alot.
 


we both just said that most small form factor GPUs will MOST LIKELY fit. but you have to do the measuring yourself. we do not know the dimensions of your case
 
this is the best suggestion for you.



most video cards on newegg are listed with dimensions of the card itself. take your case measurements and compare them to the measurements on newegg for the card you want
