A2000 on the old optiplex 7010 sff.
So I watched a lot of YouTube videos in this and the rtx a2000 lp looks like it works on my optiplex 7010 sff.
Should I buy it? It only needs 70w and my pcie slot gives 75w. It looks like it can fit on my PC too.
So is it safe for me to buy it?

@redxps630 my psu watt is 240 watt. And the a2000 only need 70 watt to work and the needed watt for it is 250 watt. So it ain't a crazy difference it will most likely work fine.

@Shuvam Khatri
The blue PCIe x16 slot in the 7010 SFF has a 50w limit So while some YouTubers might be running the A2000 in it, just know it's outside of Dell spec. Risk to your PSU is up to you. I haven't seen it said on YouTube yet how long it lasts.

Up to you if you want to try it. I just can't recommend it since it's outside of Dell spec.
RX 6400 is only 53w. Screengrab says 50w, but the new ones are 53w.
