PC Components

[pandagear]

Hi, I need help with choosing components for my pc I don't know what graphics card and power supply I should get.

I have a lenovo thinkcentre m920s

What are you looking to do with your PC? And what's the current specs of the Thinkcentre, which model of that Thinkcentre is it?

If they are like Dell, those PSU's use proprietary connectors, meaning that you cannot change / upgrade the PSU to a non-OEM version.

This limits your GPU selection. A lot.

What do you use the machine for? What Games?

 

[pandagear]

I use it for many games. Fortnite, GTA V, The forest, phasmaphobia, minecraft and sims 4

So has to be low profile gpu if it has gpu power connectors.

The specs are
CPU- Intel core i5 8th gen
8GB RAM
GPU- integrated Intel UHD 630

Sounds like upgrading this PC isn't really worth it. Probably would be better off selling it and trying to piece together a mid tower size PC.

Can you send a pic of the case?

Yeah as @moedeez has said, you're going to have to get a low profile GPU in order to fit that case. In my experience, those GPUs are pretty overpriced and they usually only come in the lower end models of the GPU lineup.

Ah oki so I rather get a tower and get the components

 

[Someone]

Yeah

And now the budget rabbit hole starts, but yeah pretty much if you have that model you are extremely limited.
