GeForce GTX 850A vs GeForce GTX 960A

When choosing between GeForce GTX 850A and GeForce GTX 960A, it is worth examining the specifications of the models in detail. Do they meet the recommended requirements of modern games and software? Storage capacity, form factor, TDP, available ports, warranty and manufacturer support are all important. For example, the size of a PC case can limit the maximum thickness and length of the card.
