Hi, let me say I don't know the first thing about computers. I have a Dell OptiPlex 960 ( small frame?? ). I am wanting to do some photo editing, and
purchased a photo editing program. When I tried to use it, a message came up saying something about 3.3 openGL  required. My processor is an Intel
Core 2 Duo CPU GHz, 2992Mhz 2 Core. I am looking to get a 1 GB DDR3 Geforce Gt710 graphics card. In the ad it says it has 4.5 open GL.
I don't need something that is super fast, so am wondering if this will be efficient for my needs? My concern is if the low profile card will fit in my CP?
The Dell Opiplex 960 is 3.5 inches wide. Does anyone have any idea if the low profile GT710 card will fit?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Yes, it should fit as it's only 2.709in in height. You'll need to use the included hdmi/dvi bracket to make it fit. You'll also need to update your motherboard bios to the latest version before installing the card.

    Thanks Sajin, I thought it would fit, but thought I would ask first. I will have to google to see how to update the motherboard bios. Thanks for the information.
