XC 1780-Query reg: graphics upgrade, card suggestions.

Hi all - throwing myself on the mercy of strangers (or @billsey) here...

I'm putting a new graphics card in my Acer XC-1780. I've upgraded the PSU to 300W and purchased a GEFORCE GTX 1650 (https:// www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CK9SRJWW) to upgrade the graphics. Based on the user benchmark score here () it apparently works... But... it doesn't fit the case - the end with the sockets for plugging in monitors is too wide.

Can anybody recommend me an appropriate graphics card which will actually work in this situation?

Thank you!

For your XC-1780, here's a picture of a generic version's back side:

There are two places for the card to put connectors, side by side, so I'm guessing you mean the card is too tall? The case is slim enough you need a low profile card in order for it to fit. There are low profiles versions of the 1650, 1660, 2050, 2060, 3050, 3060, 4050 and 4060 that should all work fine, I believe.
