GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with OptiPlex 1050 Tower
I have posted here many times looking for gaming graphics cards and asking which would fit in the computer, and I think I have finally found ne that may fit. Would the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti fit the size and power supply of the OptiPlex 1050 Tower? Has anyone tried it before? Is it good?
Edit: Forgot to add link to the GPU, so here it is: https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-gv-n105toc-4gd/p/N82E16814125915

The supposed Tower is like the 3650 which would require a SHORT card with SECURE BOOT OFF and Ugly power supply hack sitting outside the case.
3650 and 3050 and 7050 Mini Tower use Itty Bitty power supply that is proprietary and requires a 24 pin to 8 pin adapter.
