Optiplex 760 power supply upgrade
I have an Optiplex 760, date of manufacture 6/8/2009. I have upgraded it to run Windows 7, and it has 2 gb of PC2-6400 RAM. I want to add more RAM and a better video card, but will need to upgrade to a bigger power supply. Anyone that can give some suggestions on the size? I have found quite a few, but am unsure of the dimensions of the old one, thanks!!

Only the TOWER can use a bigger EPS12V power supply.
You CANNOT however use a DUAL SLOT WIDE Video card or a card more than 7.5 inches Long. If you are wanting to do this get a Precision Workstation like a T3400.

So the desktop has no larger wattage power supply available? I have to replace it with the same wattage? Thanks for your help.

Desktop has No Physical Space for the kinds of video cards you are wanting to use.
The power supply is not standard size its DELL only.
