Go to SolutionOptiPlex 755 upgrade
Hello, I'm planning to upgrade my OptiPlex 755.
My current specifications are as follows:
CPU - Intel Core2 Duo E6550 @ 2.33GHz
GPU - NVIDIA GT 240
RAM - 6GB DDR2
My upgrade will be:
CPU - AMD Athlon 3000G
GPU - NVIDIA GTX 970
Would this work with the OptiPlex 755? If not, what would be a suitable upgrade for these parts?
16 gig is not an option.
AHCI setting for SATA OPERATION supports standard SSD drives.

i am also looking to do an upgrade on my 755 and my specs are :
CPU - Intel Core2 Duo E6550 @ 2.33GHz
4 gb of ram and i don't have a GPU didn't even know you can install any in them .
I am thinking of upgrading the ram to like 8gb or 16gb and getting an ssd , but im having a hard time figuring out the CPU to get. I am just trying to get the best possible parts that can still run well on it currently .

The 755 does not support ANY AMD processor.
The 755 video slot is 1 slot wide. There are no dual slot 755 models.
So none of what you want to do works ever.
Power supply can be upgraded but the cards that fit do not need more than the 305W unit in the mini tower. Smaller cases cannot use a standard power supply and have no upgrades.
