Dell 270s graphics upgrade

I have purchased a dell 270s i3 desktop for an arcade cab I'm

Building.

I have upgraded the harddrive and the memory.

But now I need to upgrade the gpu at present I have a few games in mind I would like to play which are not running right presently street fighter 4 and street fighter x tekken!

im struggling to find a card which meets the requirements due to the space available.

Would some be able to advise a card which a fits, withing a budget, medium and money no object options that will fit this PC??

There are few to none upgrades for the Vostro 270S. The video slot is low profile and VERY VERY NARROW. With the power supply being only 220W this is a huge issue. I believe the entire vostro line has been discontinued.

PCIe x16 RGM3T Dell OEM Low Profile Nvidia GeForce GT620 video card is the only one that wont fry the supply. Shown in the pic below.


You can upgrade the TOWER but not the Slim Model. The power supply is only 220W  P3JW1  HU220NS-00
