Best single slot graphics card
« on: November 17, 2017, 08:15:02 am »
Okay guys....

Well I’ve just finished my first build and thankfully all sorted thanks to lots of advice from you guys so thank you all.

I’ve basically built a big download box (not gaming PC) for downloading, watching films/series and mild gaming,

Just wondered what the best single slot graphics card was?

Currently running a Nvidia GTX 745 4GB cos I picked it up cheap, I know it’s old but does the job. It’s just obviously would like to know if I could find an affordable upgrade.

Using it on a 990fxa-ud3 so if there’s one that’s SLI capable it would be benefical.
First/Current build:

AMD 9590 4.7Ghz 8-core, 4TB SSHD, 8GB DDR3 RAM, be quiet dark rock pro 3, 1200w PSU

Let’s just say money’s not an object but I don’t want to go overboard.

Like I said it’s only to make things run smoother and look as best as possible whilst watching programmes, not for gaming or anything hi-tech.
