Dell optiplex 3010 MT

Hi all,

just wondered if this graphics card would fit in my dell?

SAPPHIRE RADEON RX 460 NITRO OC GRAPHICS CARD, 4GB GDDR5,which is 75w

and my power supply is 275w I think?

 

Thanks.

    Thanks.

    also would my dell optiplex 3010 mt support PC3L-12800R DDR3? I can get 16gb for £20!

    playing current games and 40w limits the choices.  The best value is the GT1030.

    The Gigabyte version is fine and its $90

    Below that would be fanless 2 Gig Radeon HD5450 this card however is 8 times slower in games than the GT1030

    DDR5 doesnt exist

    https://www.jedec.org/category/technology-focus-area/main-memory-ddr3-ddr4-sdram

    The JEDEC DDR5 standard is currently in development in JEDEC's JC-42 Committee for Solid State Memories. Its not been released its not real.

    GDDR5 is legit.

    https://www.jedec.org/document_search?search_api_views_fulltext=DDR5

    So the DDR5 may in fact be DDR4 version

    I would steer clear of DDR5 description.

    GDDR5 cant be a mistake or typo because there is no such thing as GDDR4.

    Always wanted to learn Cesky because the ladies from there are gorgeous.

    Doubtful that it can fit in the MT--too big-- and requires a psu of at least 350w. See specs--

    Dell optiplex MT takes full height gpu.  But it can not take a full length gpu more than 1” longer than the width of motherboard because its 3.5” hdd bay is in the way.  You can get a short gpu that may fit.  Alternatively you can dismount the hdd bay to create room for standard length gpu (and try to mount hdd in external odd bay via adapter).

    this video also shows the physical limitation.

    The 30w GT 1030 comes quite regularly recommended by one of our Rockstars in this forum for various Optiplex's.

    Another question,

     

    can a dell 8900 psu be compatible with my 3010? It's going really cheap!


    DELL 8900 460 watt PSU, 80 PLUS Bronze

    what OS,?

    RADEON RX 460 NITRO OC GRAPHICS CARD

    why would it not Fit? it is small but you never posted link to your card.  (12 makers huge sub-versions)

    75watts is just off slot, and is mostly easy .

    275watt PSU can do 75watts. why would it not (surely 200watts is plenty for the mobo) heck a SSD drive used adds more spare watts got one? most folks now upgraded to SSD long ago , you too.? way before GPU upgrades.

    w10 support this card

    is your PC running boot hdd0 legacy MBR or secureboot, GPT mode. I do not know. that. only you do.
