Inspiron 5675, GPU compatibility?

Question

I currently have a 2GB RX 560 installed in my Inspiron 5675, and I want to upgrade with a GTX 1060 soon. A friend of mine told me that because the motherboard is proprietary he doesn't know which GPUs may be compatible. I'm not too well versed in computers just yet so I was wondering if anyone knew factually that a GTX 1060 is compatible with this machine, or if they could lead me to some information.   Any help is appreciated.

I'm using a GTX 1060 SC in my 3670 so I see no reason why it would not work in your 5675 if you have a 16x PCIE slot available.. You will need at least a 400W power supply with a 6 pin PCIE power output to run the GTX 10 series. I had to upgrade the stock Dell PSU to meet these requirements. You should also make sure the case is big enough to fit the length of the card. If you are unsure, go with the SC or Ti models which are shortened card length. Typically you are looking for a single fan GPU. The BIOS recognized my card without issue and I did not have any boot problems. The standard Windows 10 drivers for GTX 10 series worked as well.

The previous post is spot on and very helpful. Just to elaborate slightly, following are the Dell tested cards for compatibility and notice that the GTX 1060 is listed. AMD RX 560 • AMD RX 570 • AMD RX 580 • NV GTX 1060 • One PCI-Express X16, single-width/double- width, full length (maximum 10.5 inches) • Two PCI-Express X16, single-width/double- width, full length (maximum 10.5 inches) (only with computers shipped with AMD Ryzen 3/ Ryzen 5/Ryzen 7 processors) NOTE : The PCI- Express X16 card slot works at X8 speed only. NOTE : The graphics configuration of your desktop varies depending on the graphics card configuration ordered.

Thanks for the replies, seems like good news! I'll be replacing my RX 560 so the 1060 or 580 I buy will have that slot to fit into. I was going to say I'll do some measuring to see if it fits but if both those cards are listed as compatible I take it they'll definitely fit? As for the power supply, it came with stock 460w so I'm above your 400w recommendation thankfully. Again, I appreciate the response!

Hi, I just wanted to say that I upgraded my Inspiron 5675 from a RX 560 to a MSI GTX 1060 6GT OCV1. I also upgraded my Ryzen 5 1400 with a Ryzen 7 1700 that I bought on a sale last week.

If you're still deciding between the RX580 and the 1060, I would advise that you go with the 1060 because of its lower TDP.

I ran a Corsair Hydro GFX GTX 1080 w/AIO liquid cooling loop effortlessly, for over one year, on this stock power supply. CPU was 1600x as well (higher TDP than what most of these ship with)

I ran into issues with any kind of crossfire setup in which case the Corsair TX850M fit the case pretty good. I Could only secure it using 2 of the 4 screw slots. It secured and worked great, is higher efficiency rated, and costs less than the QVL OEM Dell PSU from dell @ 850watts.

like 3 years late but also wondering would the rtx 20 or 30 series be compatible with the 5675?

XPS_Man · Answer

An upgraded PSU will be required  RTX20 series card may work  But 30 series card won't  Power requirement for RTX 30 series card is too high and 400w PSU is not enough.
