Recently, I upgraded from a Dell Optiplex 790 to a Dell Optiplex 7010MT.
Here is what I installed successfully into my Dell Optiplex 7010MT:
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro ‘For Workstations’ - (For Extra Features.)
SSD Drive
DDR3 RAM
CPU - i7-3770K (can handle 1440p live streaming) (Can also handle 4K ultra HD @60fps on a 55inch Vizo tv)
GPU - MSI Radeon AMD RX580 8G OC ( I haven’t tried upgrading to a higher gpu than the RX580 yet, but I’m certain that you can get a fair amount-more of gpu performance by trying the next level up from the RX580, and then also by upgrading the RAM to 1600 instead of having 1333mhz. )
Side Note: ( The i7-3770K CPU seems to process information faster than the GPU of the RX580. So, my advice is to find a GPU that is equally fast if not faster than the I7-3770K CPU ).
End Result: Success. Fully operational and a monster of a computer.
