HDMI for Optiplex 780 sff

Question

Hi,

my English is not very good, sorry. I searched the forum, but could find no answer.

I have an Optiplex 780 sff (Desktop version) and would like to connect a modern TV set (HDMI). The onboard graphic chip unfortunately has no HDMI output.

Is it possible to install another graphic card? Could you give me an advice which card works. AFAIK the power supply has only 250W.

Is a Radeon HD 6450 or MSI N8400GS-D256H a possible solution?

Thank you.

GT1030 Low profile is the solution. USFF wont work with anything because it has ZERO slots.

Hi @caissaXXL,Just a little info for future reference to save on any confusion:&#xa0; 'Desktop,' or DT, and SFF are 2 different sizes.&#xa0; You mentioned '250 watt PSU' which has me leaning toward DT.&#xa0; However, you saying 'SFF' tells me you know what size you have.Optiplex 780 Tech Guide&#xa0;&#xa0;
