What graphics cards are compatible with 3010 SFF?
I was planning on getting a graphics card for my Optiplex. My PSU has a wattage of 240W and I'm looking for a low profile graphics card around the $150-200 price range. Would a GTX 1650 be able to work on this machine?
My specs are:
Intel i5-3470
8 GB DDR3 ram
1TB HDD
Mobo: T10XW

75W 1650 not likely to work due to being UEFI 2.3.1 card and phsyically too large. 75W card needs 365W power supply
GT1030 2gig 40W card works.

The SFF is very small
USFF and Micro do not have slots.
G16504TPC from MSI might fit but its UEFI CLASS 2.3.1 and 75W
A class 1 machine is a UEFI system that runs exclusively in Compatibility Support Module (CSM) mode. CSM is a specification for how UEFI firmware can emulate a legacy BIOS. UEFI firmware in CSM mode loads legacy bootloaders.

I have a Zotac 1650 low profile in a 3010 sff with the same specs and A22 bios. The card works, kinda. Tested it with rise of the tomb raider which works fine and world war z which works fine if the settings are lowered to medium, on high it crashes the system probably due to higher gpu power draw. I'll have to test it with an external 500w psu to see if the problem is the 50w pcie limit or just the weak 240w psu.
