[SOLVED] Will a Geforce 1050 TI work with an Optiplex 745?

[Elijahr241]

I have an old Dell Optiplex 745 that I'm planning on upgrading for use with some gaming. (Nothing too crazy) I'm planning on putting in a new CPU, upgrading the ram, and an SSD, but I'm starting off with the graphics card. I'm looking at a GeForce 1050 Ti (this one) mainly because it's smaller and doesn't need anything from my PSU, which doesn't have any open ports. It seems like it might fit, but I figured I would check with people who are more experienced with upgrading PCs like this. If it won't fit, do you have any recommendations on a good, budget graphics card that will fit this computer and work for some gaming? Thanks!

That form factor is your 745?

It's a small form factor. (Not the ultra small)

That graphics card will not work. You will need a low profile graphics card

I've been looking through some LP cards. Do you know of any budget gaming ones that will fit my model that you can recommend me? Thanks
