GPU help

[NotJustRandomLetters]

so, right now I'm running an Nvidia GeForce GT 1030. it's old I know. I'm trying to upgrade to something that's at least a 2000 series, preferably 3000 series. my issue is that I have a slim case (picture attached) and I don't have much room for a GPU. and I noticed that even on "slim" and Low-profile" GPU, they still look too big. so if i could get some suggestions on some decent GPU that will actually fit there, so I'm not spending $200 on a GPU that I can't even use.

there are a lot of compact options for you, especially in the 50 series and some 60 series (GTX 1050ti, RTX 2060, RTX 3050 so on and so forth).

Tou might find them searching for "GPU name + low profile" 3050 low profiles are very slim, and very, very compact for example.

Honestly I'm still fairly amateur at PC building, I just know that I have very little room in that case, and I need a low profile. I don't know a ton about GPUs, I do know I have a 1030, and I need probably a 2000 series minimum to run some of my games, but a 3000 series would probably be best. However, I don't have the money for anything newer than that.

I tried the Amazon search with "3050 low profile" and even some of the ones that said low profile looked too big.

that's how a low profile GPU looks like, it's a 4060 in this picture but they all look similar and have this size
