    Power from your machine:  the original power supply from Dell OptiPlex 390 mini tower is 265w.  It provides up to 75w to power graphics card on the PCIe x16 slot.

    Power requirements for AMD Radeon R7 250:  it's a 65w dual slot card and doesn't need external power connector.  Suggested power supply of 250w.

    I'd say your machine should be able to run the R7 250 GPU.

    Chino is correct. 7 users had validated R7 250 in 390.
