Hello, I have this motherboard

  • Powered by NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 GPU
  • Integrated with 4GB GDDR5 memory and 256-bit memory interface
  • Boost:1367 MHz/ Base: 1215 MHz in OC Mode

  • Features Dual-link DVI-I / HDMI / DisplayPort*3

It may work in terms of compatibility but your PSU isn't going to be any where near enough to supply it.  What size of 380 do you have?

if you can find one that will fit and is compatible.  Not sure if Dell used proprietary connectors or not.
