You won't be able to use anything better than a NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 due to the case size and power requirements. You can find a list of NVIDIA GPUs here. Just look through them and see which one would best fit your needs. Just keep in mind that you won't be able to use any of the GTX series. Once you've made your decision, you can purchase a card from a website like Amazon or at a local electronics store.
