Not a bloody clue...

I'm looking for a SFF GPU for an oldish i5 PC I've got, has to be SFF and if it could be 'self powered' it would be easier, but I can always ask a techie in work to install it for me. PC is i5 with 8GB of RAM, but I could make it 16GB if I need to.

Looking at a Nvidia GTX 750ti 2GB OR a GT730 which is obviously lower spec BUT it's 4GB - quick rule of thumb, does memory trump model number?

It's for GTA V and Minecraft.

Thanks for all the advice - will order a GTX 750Ti next week. They don't have any 9 series cards.

Didn't really have a budget in mind "less than the amount that would make my boss hit the roof if I ordered it in work" there's a smaller model on TechData it's £80 or so (plus vat).

Bought the game this morning, few hours of swapping discs (all 7 of them!) and now 2 hours of downloading it.... Hope it's good, my current GPU is a GT 620 1GB which I'm told should give me console-esq graphics, but he didn't say PS3 or 4.

I've got a new CAD workstation coming into work soon - twin 10 core Xeon, 64GB RAM and a 4GB Invidia quadro K4200 - might see how it runs on that wink
