As I am currently replacing my NAS with a completely different build, I'm left with:

- i3-4150
- 12 GB ddr3 ram
- 450 W PSU (Corsair RM 450)
- Asus H87I-PLUS Mobo
- Node 304 case

Looking for some decent graphic card to go with it, for some older games. I think low profile will be best as the case is pretty small, and entire thing is mini-itx. The board has single pci-e 3.0 slot.

Strongly prefer nvidia, but no idea which generation and model will be good pair with the rest of the system.

I kinda want to play Witcher 3 on it, but no idea if that'll be possible.

Thanks, seem like reasonable price. Isn't the cpu going to severely limit its speed tho?

Depends on the games your playing.but is probably the best card to suit your needs.

Or just a plain 1050 if you want. Don't expect to be able to play AAA games on it though (edit: on high settings lol)

he's recommending the 1050 ti for the i3 as a decent pairing, not recommending getting an i3. He's already got the cpu may as well get what it's worth out of it which the integrated graphics definitely cannot do.
