Optiplex 9010 MT power usage?
How much power does the 9010 use from the power supply? I bought a Dell AMD Radeon HD6450 and I'm wondering if I should swap my power supply for it. It's still shipping, might I add.

HD6450 is a very low power card with TDP of about 20w. almost any psu can support it.

Optiplex 9010 MT comes with 275w PSU which is more than enough for the 18w GPU card.

6450 is a 30W TDP max card. No need for new power supply.

I got 2 different wattages depending on how I Googled it. "HD 6450 tdp" yielded 18 watts. "HD 6450 watts" yielded 27 watts. Some screengrabs below. As mentioned before, either way, PSU has more than enough power for it.
