video driver for onboard Intel® Q45 Express chipset w/ICH10DO Dell Optiplex 780 SFF

I thank KirkD and SummerFunll for clarifying that I have SFF (not a USFF)

Now I need little more advice/help for a video driver for onboard Intel Q45 chipset. I want to use 3D function of PhotoshopCC for small files. Can I , with this chipset.  I have Win7.

or should i have to necessarily install a graphic card. My power supply is 235W from Dell and how much of the power supply watts already consumed up with following configuration.

4gb ddr3

core2 dou 3.0

320 gb hard drive

DVD combo writer

wiFi card

Also system has become little slow now. i use cCleaner to clear registry & temporary files cleaning.

Thanks & Regards

You have an Optiplex 980.

Integrated INTEL Graphics is not sufficient for this.

Intel® Core 2 or AMD Athlon® 64 processor; 2 GHz or faster processor
Microsoft Windows 7 with Service Pack 1, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10
2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
2 GB of available hard-disk space for 32-bit installation; 2.1 GB of available hard-disk space for 64-bit installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on removable flash storage devices) 1024 x 768 display (1280x800 recommended)
with 16-bit color and





512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)
OpenGL 2.0–capable system


 ** 3D features are disabled with less than 512 MB of VRAM. Read the Help article.

Thank you very much SpeedStep for the kind advice.

Which low cost low profile graphic cards are available for this Dell Optiplex 780 SFF with 235W power supply. It is 780 bios version A15 not an 980.

Thanks.

Asus EAH5450 19W Card works in every dell I have ever put it in.

ATI Radeon HD 5450 provides OpenGL 3.2 graphics aka Directx 11.

The 6450 is 27W and has 2x the shaders and therefore 2x the performance of the 5450.  The risk here is that you are 2W over the 25W max of the slot.
