Reading your post re:upgrading the PSU, that will allow you to install a much better GPU then your 180W PSU would allow.

There’s one card that’s low-profile GTX 1050 Ti from ASL. This model is unique for one reason, it’s the only low-profile and single-slot GTX 1050 Ti on the market.

There  are a few low profile GTX 1050 Ti’s from ZOTAC, MSI, Gigabyte and GALAX, but none of them are single-slot.

Due to the motherboard and chassis physical limitations you can only install a single slot width small heatsink low profile gpu in Vostro 3268, unless you install the psu outside case.  This is because the PCIex16 slot is right next to psu.

JOCean is correct that 180w is too weak to support gtx 1050 or 1050Ti.

minimum psu to meet load wattage is 240w.
