Graphic card option for optiplex 3050 SFF

I have a dell optiplex 3050 SFF with 16GB RAM, 1TB hard disk, 240W PSU and looking to install a graphic card. What options do I have?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This forum post will help. Basically though the low profile GT 1030 (40W) is the only card per @speedstep .

The SFF case with psu right next to PCIex16 slot severely limits your option to install a video card. It needs to be a low profile, single slot width, and short card.  Even if you upgrade psu these physical limitations still apply.

There are other cards  Like Radeon HD5450 which is 30W single slot card. GT`1030 is quite a bit faster however so its still the choice.  I purchased a $200 40W card Yeston RX550 but it was for tower not SFF.

Yeston RX550 is Legit
