Can a Dell Inspiron Desktop Computer use an external GPU?
I have a Dell at home, and I'd like to do some gaming in it, however you can't upgrade the graphics card. Is it possible to use a External GPU? Thanks!

There are various ugly methods like a pci-e x16 extension cable and auxillary power supply.
EGPU in general isnt supported.
Thunderbolt 3 is not an option so the Gigabyte Game boxes wont work.
There is no such thing as a one size fits all for ALL models and you didnt say what you have.

I recently added https://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/msi-gt-1030-2g-lp-oc-graphic-card-2-gb-gddr5-pcie-30-x16-low-profile-hdmi-displayport/apd/aa362018/graphic-video-cards?ref=p13n_snp_pdp_eol&c=us&cs=04&l=en&s=bsd to my Inspiron 3880, it is working fine. Before that I used UG35H5 USB 3.0 To 2K HDMI Adapter - WAVLINK See the world! Powered by Wavlink with an Inspiron 13 7000 series laptop for several years.

@tejas116 - Always include exact PC model in your posts!
How do you know you can't upgrade the GPU?
