Card for dell optiplex 7010

Question

Hello all I want to know all cards I can't put in my optiplex 7010. I want to add a r5 240 or HD 8490 or gt 710. I have a 250w psu

redxps630 · Answer

R5 240 OEM ddr3 suggested psu is 250w. gt710 ddr3 suggested psu is 200w. Hd8490 OEM ddr3 suggested psu is 200w. you may be able to put faster card with gddr5 in 7010, such as R7 250.

speedstep · Answer

710 720 730 cards that are X4 are not likely to work.

Non Dell cards require secure boot OFF if you have latest bios.

Cards over 50W are not supported without optional 305W power supply or greater.

No cards whatsoever work on USFF or Micro versions because they have no slots.

minimal for fortnite GPU: Intel HD 4000 (integrated graphics) recommended for fornite CPU: Core i5 2.8GHz GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 / AMD Radeon HD 7870 or equivalent video card with dedicated memory of 2GB or higher VRAM.

redxps630 · Answer

with a gpu within your $45 budget, your video quality of fornite may be low, average 30fps.

for gt710 check fortnite benchmark assuming you have i7-3770 in optiplex 7010. you can check the general benchmark for other gpu in this game.

Looks good on paper but I don’t understand why the seller listed p/n ZT-71309-20B is not included on official zotac website.  I would contact zotac directly to verify this is a valid product number,

Overclock gt710

Nate M. · Answer

I was looking at people like changing the fps, how fast it spins (this one doesnt) to get better fps. How do I get that? is it like downloading the drives or what?
