Best graphics card for an Optiplex 780?
Hi. I want to upgrade my computer's graphics card to something a little better, since I can hardly play any 3D games without my computer crashing (and I already play In the lowest settings).
My PC specs are:
- Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate x86
- Processor: Intel (R) Core(TM) Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz 2.93 GHz
- RAM: 4.00 GB
- 32 bits system
- Hard disk has 150G
It's built-in graphics card is Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1). It ... I want to upgrade but I don't know which card will work

Speedstep already linked it, GDDR5. Use short bracket low for low profile if you have a DT or SFF. It's not said what size/form factor your PC is.
Also, upgrade the ram to at least 8GB. A-Tech is a good brand with lifetime warranty. It's what I use. Nice way to save a little $ on an older/somewhat older machine as compared to Crucial. Make sure all RAM modules match. Dell's, especially some of the older ones, can be real finicky about that.

By the way, I did see the first GT 1030 link redirects. The 2nd link works.
