Vostro 470 I7 system video card
I have a couple of Vostro 470s. They both had the radeon card they came with, very slow.
I posted here and was told a GTX 1050 would work, I ordered one that turned out to be fake. Scratch that idea.
I got a Zotac GTX 970 with two fans that is working great in one of them. I do have a big fancy PS to go with.
So just to pass on information a Zotac Dual Fan GTX 970 works in a Vostro 470 I7 system.
I have one other Vostro 470 with the slow radeon card and I am looking for an upgrade.
I found a Zotac Geforce GTX 1060 mini with a single fan that Zotac says will be backwards compatible with the Vostro PCIe 2.0 slot.
The Zotac rep suggested that if the Zotac GTX 970 works the GTX 1060 should work.
The card does have to be pretty short, under 10", I had one other card that would not physically fit in the Vostro 470. Should that card work in that system?
