Best option for GPU transcoding - older hardware

I’ve currently got an older motherboard: https://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/C202_C204/X9SCM-F.cfm

It’s been serving it’s purpose well-running unRAID with a bunch of storage and serving up my plex server without too much issue. I do have some issues getting some users to not transcode, and want to add a few more. This said, any suggestions for a decent GPU that I could add in for hardware transcoding to ease up the work on the CPU? Right now I can only get about 2-3 transcodes and then the system becomes a bit temperamental and prone to error. It’s the slots I have available that seems to be limiting me as I learned when I blindly ordered up a Quadro P2000 that wouldn’t fit.
