hi! this is an excellent video im thinking about getting an optiplex 7040 sff next month aswell, probably the i5 or i7 version and a super cheap gpu like gt 730 4gb just for some light gaming like gta v, minecraft etc does the optiplex come with keyboard mouse aswell? im gonna pair it with a 1080p 90hz monitor
@@ExertionzFOREAL yes I record all my benchmarks with a 2 pc setup via a capture card. Elgato 4K60 pro MK2 (with no performance loss on the gaming PC) this is most likely due to running low graphics settings
I don't think so, in e-sport tittle the rx 580 4gb isn't maxed out. Cpu is also used almost at 100% at more graphic demanding tittle like cyberpunk 2077. So i5 6600 will be a bottleneck for rx 580 8gb.

@@potatosmash9736 obviously not recommend. Basically it’s the same thing as having an external PSU to power the graphics card since the DELL PC doesn’t have enough juice or the right PCIe connector to power it
I'm going to buy the optiplex 7040 MT and that one has 240w, With 180w you are at the limit and I want to take care of my components, so do you think I could safely keep my 240w Dell or buy another one from another brand? (I was thinking about the Azza 550w)@@ChannelGamingTech
I found a hp elitedesk 800 g2 with an i5 6600 8gb ram no hdd or gpu for $55 I have my old dell optiplex still so Im just going to take the gt 1030 out of there and slap it in my new pc and sell my old one.

Thank you ! I got mine used locally so it only came with the power wire
Yea same
The thumbnail was very helpful
Good video bro 🙂👏
Thanks bro ! 😀💪👍
did you use a capture card or obs? the quality was nice but a little pixelated(i aassume its because of low graphics)

@@ChannelGamingTech damnnn okay
What program for overlay?
MSI Afterburner
If it's an 8GB RX-580, is that possible? Has the FPS increased?
