Just opened my computer up and look like can't fit a 750ti.

What case you guys recommend? Also i need a homeplug as my wifi card can't connect to 5g fibre.

Thanks!

Laser Distributor @ SLS #05-58 got sell Zotac GTX750 Low profile @ $189.

You might want to call them to check for stock first.

Also, make sure the DVD drive does not block the graphic card.
The size of the card is 148.84mm Lenght x 111.15mm width.

for low profile cards, maybe you can check the following site. They have the "recommended" low profile cards, specs, and comments. Then google for the size.

you know how to change psu and casing? Do not want to complicate stuffs for you. if you know how to change them, maybe you can source of a cheap case (around 50?) and a <400-500W PSU too.

I think hard to get a ITX case to fit his Acer mobo, his mobo like left 2/3 of m-atx, i think mounting hole should be same as m-atx.

Do have to check whether this Acer mobo support other hardware, later hardware lock.. maybe need to buy new mobo too

worth it to get a ssd from amazon on black friday?

frequently my programs are unresponsive, what's the cause of that?

Thanks!
Yup... but check price first...

Too much bloatware/spyware/adware/saiware inside bah...

Do give a health check to your current HDD with SMART status and RAM with memtest

if you are changing motherboard, might as well change everything, you can only reuse the rams and hdd and optical drives. can get a decent computer at around 800-1000 or less with everything.

price check with lazada and other e commerce sites. sometime, the differences not that huge when there is an offer

and when was the last time you defrag your hdd too on top of scanning it.
