Graphics Card Suport
I have a Dell Optiplex 380 Desktop with Integrated Graphics.I want to upgrade to low-Budget GPU like GT1030 2GD5LP.But Does it support PCIe 2.0 Because i have PCIe 2.0.And in some other sites,I read that motherboard with UEFI bios or something is also required.I don't know anything about UEFI but i will tell u my motherboard model.
I have mentioned all of my specs and can u tell me that GT 1030 supports CPU or will it fit?

PNY GT 1030 works fine without any issues. EXCEPT in USFF because USFF has no slots to put a card into.

The most important stat is your power supply. There are almost no cards today that can run on 235w. You are stuck with old used budget models. The GT 1030 will not work since it requires minimum 300w psu.

GT730 uses too much power.
75W cards are not supported.
GT 730 4GB TDP is 49.00 W
There is a 25W limit for low profile cards.
Radeon HD 2400/3450/5450 etc is the stock optional upgrade card from dell.

The truth is I have the same pc that you have but I want to update the graph but I do not know which ones are useful or have compatibility because once I bought one and it freezes me I had to return it I did not know if it was my pc or the graph I do not know if you did you know which ones
