Super useful the list of parts and upgrades. keep up the good work.
Hi. thanks
Can you do a benchmark video on this rig would really appreciate it
Well done!
Thanks
Thank you my friend. very helpful
Hi. thanks.
Great video, I would like to know if I have to do a processor change on this type of machine? After I make the exchange the computer does not turn on, it stays in the amber light instead of the white light
i just installed a Corsair SF600 in my Optiplex 7040 mini tower and have a GEFORCE GTX 1660 Ti (6GB GDDR6) working.
Are you able to take the parts out and move it to a new mid tower pc case? (Been looking at an s340 case for the parts here
At 5:06 you can see a M.2 connector for an NVMe PCIe SSD which will outperform any SATA SSD. Back in 2017, they were expensive though.
Is it nvme or only ssd m.2?
@DFaking yes
@@seropserop i have the 5040 version of this system and I replaced the stock hdd with an nvme. I believe this board can handle the nvme
Ramesh Seelochan I ended up getting the 7040 sff and putting a full size gtx 1060 in it
im running a 1050ti with stock power supply np,and streaming and gaming from same pc,my elgato cap card is the work horse when streaming,still stock power supply.from a 7040 optiplex
Exactly what kind of setup I have. I have almost 1TB of memory with two of the drives being SSDs and a 500GB HDD. I currently have a i5-6500 and I am looking to upgrade the CPU.
The white slot pci, use for what ??
Can we upgrade the psu to a 550 or 600 to put a card like gtx 1060 or rx 580
Can i put msi gtx 1050 ti lp on this with i7 and put 16 gb ram can the stock psu handle that? or should i upgrade also the psu? (sorry for bad english) thank you
Any recommendations on a good quality CPU fan? How old is the OptiPlex 7040?? Is it worth upgrading?
Very well done man. Your video was so much good for me.
I want a Graphics Card which has at least 4GB or 6GB dedicated memory to use with this PC, can you please suggest?
And do i need to upgrade the PSU in any case, please suggest ideas of one which will fit?
Hi, thanks...
Please tell me can i upgrade the motherbord of optiplex 7040 mt????
Can u make a video while play games. Just wanted to know whether its shut down automatically or not. Mine optiplex 5040 with 240 watt. When put r7 240 it turned off automatically when in games.
Hi! I have an optiplex 7040 and a gtx 1050. Im thinking of getting a evga gtx 1080 ftw, but idk if itll fit. What r ur thoughts?

Here's my Dell Optiplex 7040 MT default detail:
Intel Core i7-6700
SK Hynix DDR4-2133 8G (4Gx2) RAM
Seagate 1TB SATA3
AMD R5-340X 2GB DDR3
Lite-ON PSU 240W Bronze
This January I changed RAM upgrade to 64GB (Micron 16G DDR4-2400 x4), VGA card (EVGA GTX 1050 Ti SSC) and add Intel M.2 SSD 600p (2280).
It works when i playing Starcraft II and other games, the PSU use about 130W~145W.
Also I tested Powercolor RX460 4GB GDDR5, the PSU use about 150W~165W.
Remember, DO NOT BUY GTX 1050 TI / RX 460 WHEN IT NEED 6-PIN Require
Have u ever suffered auto turn off on ur pc? I tried r7 240 when in games it auto turned off. I3 6100 4gbram with 240 watt psu

Hello, I need to talk to you....can we have a little chat ????
How about i get this system and move the components to an old tower, change the PSU to 500W, and get a gtx-1060 gpu. Will that be ok?
Please can i instal gtx 750 ti on dell optiplex 7040 sff with 2psu.

Hello! I just wanna ask.. I hve this Tower Dell Optiplex 7040 and looking to upgrade to SSD Samsung 970 EVO 500GB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology.. Will that work in this pc or so I need to buy some adaptors?
Upgrade the processor to i3-6100T for True NAS scale ??
who puts thermal paste on the heatsink and not on the CPU itself
If I upgrade the PSU to a bit more power, I would like to install a 750ti or 1050ti both under 7" and 70W. It looks like a normal profile card would physically fit but I can't tell for sure from the video. Can you tell me if it normal profile card (with two slots in the back) would fit please? I'm now using both these cards in 9010 MT so would like to not go back to slower card. Thanks
i just installed a Corsair SF600 in my Optiplex 7040 mini tower and have a GEFORCE GTX 1660 Ti working.
can i upgrade the power supply of optiplex 7040?
Hey. Low profile video card?
Hi. I know I'm late but I have a question regarding my optiplex 7040. I have the same type of optiplex but it has an i7-6700 octa-core and 8gb ram pre installed. I installed a 1050ti and replaced the stock pcu with a 400w pcu, although it doesnt fit inside the case so I left it stationed outside instead. My problem is that my computer powers off when I run high demanding games like Tomb Raider or Fallout 4. I tried leaving the case cover open then pointed a ventilation fan as I run those games again but still my computer shuts off. I dont know if its an overheating issue or something else.
Not enought power from psu, if its not certified will not be real 400 w, you should need to buy a 400w or 500w psu certified (real power output)
Can you do one with 3040 Optiplex
Hi... in SFF model of optiplex 7040 can you run an SSD along with a SATA drive at same time or does it need to be one or the other?
Thanks
Can I install gtx 1060 mini 3gb
isnt the iGPU on the i3 6100 better than that GT 730? unless its only meant for multi-monitors.
If youre looking to game on it you can easily get away with installing a small GTX 750ti, 1050 or 1050ti or RX460 that dont require additional power
its only 240w psu, for all of that cards he really need to upgrade the psu
Hi I have Dell optiplix 7040 like your computer but it is core i5 8gb ram now I want to change my power supply can I do this because I want to buy GTX 1050ti 4gb gigabyte can I change it to 400 wat if there is a way please help me. Tnx
can i put gtx 750 ti on this opteplix 7040 Without Elback Psu ??
CAN YOU DO A GPU UPGRADE FOR DELL VOSTRO 3667/3668?
Yes you can
Does the PSU can be replaced with the higher wattage to support high end video cards?
Does it fit? The PSU and the Video card?
Im thinking about buying this one and upgrade it's PSU and graphics card
Hi, i just uploaded video and shows you how to upgrade bigger video card for gaming by removing hard drive cage.

me too
@@adham9212 you can use one of these www.ebay.com/p/1655149470
Trying to accomplish this in 2022 haha
The thing is, my Optiplex 7040 has a limitation on ram frequency, it stucks at 2133 MHz and I'm using Netac ram 2x8 3200 MHz.
Do you have to do some tweak to make this computer use the 3200 MHz of your ram?
Hi, not really dell BIOS locked
nividia support ??????
Can I use a credit card instead of a debit card to spread the thermal compound ? 🤓 BTW thanks for the video appreciate it 👍
one question everyone wants to know...
Can I change the body case? if then how?
Same question got an answer?
is it possible if you can upgrade it to an after market power supply? like evga or coolmaster?
My reason is to upgrade to a higher video card like 1060
No. That power supply is specifically designed for that case.
Really? I am considering if i can buy this, and upgrade just like you have. Can you give me a link to the 750W PSU?
Looking for this psu as well. I want to upgrade the GPU
I have got 2x 8gb SK Hynix Ram. I have a SK Hynix 1x4gb hanging around is it worth banging it in the 3rd slot? Thanks
Hi, yes you can add more RAM if you want..
Is it possible to fit the motherboard into another case?
Hi, yes.
Whats the difference between plugging into the hdmi port that came with the computer vs the hdmi port on the g card? If i only want to use the dedicated Nvidia one, should i directly plug into the g card instead? Also, i noticed an
empty m.2 slot on the top right corner, do you think that would be a worthy upgrade for this computer? Thanks!
I thought this model has m.2 SSD options on the motherboard. I could be wrong.
You are correct. at 5:06 you can see a M.2 connector for an NVMe PCIe SSD which will outperform any SATA SSD. Back in 2017, they were pricey though.

Did your system just worked?
You helped me a lot, thank you but i want a good ssd m.2 aruond 25 dollars for this pc
Does it have an M.2 ssd slot ?
@@alaaaloha8208 yoo😂 yes!, and i already bought one
@@jjgg7077 what m.2 did you cop?
dont answer me if i cant do it, but can i install a video card that require 75W in optiplex 7040?
No, the PSU on the Optiplex 7040 is really weak. 180W
no mine is 240W
Oh, do you have the big tower version of the 7040? You should switch out the power supply if you do and get at least a 300w PSU.
Hey Hanco Games the power supply is a tfx12v you would have to modify the case for a regular atx power supply.. The best one so far that is on Newegg is 420watts for the tfx12v. still not enough juice for most graphics cards with a 6pin or 8 pin power, how ever a gtx 1060 requires 6pin power and the minimum is a 400 watt power supply. I would still get a 420watt power tfx12 if I could just in case for heavy computing power. But if you stay below gtx 1060 series you will be fine. Also check the older gpu's like the gtx 980 as they still use a lot of power. Best bet instead of modyfing the case for a cut out or having the power supply limitations I would just get a cheap 20 case from newegg with free shipping and you would be good to go without scratching your head. All you need is a micro atx case.
Can the motherboard be used on other cases?
Yes the motherboard can be used in other cases. Just take it out and put it in a full atx or micro atx of your choice. I did that to mine. Read my previous description above..
So uhhh im might but ine off amazon with a i5 16gb ram 512gb ssd and i want to add a low profile 1030 idk the power supply watts so i went ona webaite and it said it has a 180 wats power suply and im pretty sure the whole compiter uses 100 and a 1030 is like less than 75 wats so i think im good btw the pc cost like 240$ and the low profile 1030 is like 100 dollars and to add a montior 1080p all of this is 500 dollars cant wait to get a j9b and get this even though i have a all in one with amd radeon tm 8gb ram 1tb ssd and ryzen 5 4500 so what do you think?
Hi, which Dell OptiPlex Model do you have is it SFF Small Form Factor or MT Mini Tower ?

With 180watt and yes you can use gt 1030 low profile video card.
@@mxkdt im gona use gt 730 instead i almost got scammed with a gt1030 ddr4 🤭
Ok. Good Luck !
where did you buy the graphics card?
Hi, i did buy from local seller.
EVGA GeForce GT 730 2GB (Low Profile) Part Number: 02G-P3-3733-KR
What's the fastest memory you can get to work with this Mobo?
2133 mhz ddr4, the motherboard doesn't support any faster speed
You could have upgraded the power supply to 360 watts and then install a better GPU.
what other video cards can you add

@@mxkdt thank you
@@mxkdt what is the stock power supply because it says 300 watts is needed
Will ddr3 graphics card work
Hi, yes for graphics and PC only supports DDR4 RAM.
yes, any graphics card of like the last 20 years will work, gpu memory type doesn't matter on any pc.
Can I change the power supply?
Hi, yes you can...
hello can i use " Msi 2GB GTX1050 2GT"
Hi, yes you can..
I will buy soon GTX 1050ti low profile sff and a optiplex 7040 sff
Then I need to buy another power supply?
pls help
pd: sorry for my bad english
The SFF Optiplex 7040 features a 180W PSU which may not be enough for the 75W that consumes the 1050ti low profile. On the other hand, the Mid Tower (MT) Optiplex 7040 comes with a 240W PSU that may be sufficient. Official tech specs indicates a 300W PSU needed for the 1050ti lp.
LA thanks for the info :D
No problem! What kind of games are you planning to play?
Old games, some f2p games AND modern games like fo4 GTA 5 csgo and probably destiny 2, all on medium settings maybe high, and I have a 900p monitor (1440x900)
My friend, have you considered a GT 1030? Quite pricy but excellent in a small form factor PC as it only requires 30W of power unlike the more powerful cards such as 1050ti that need at least 75W. This card would be great for older games and newer games, especially if you have a 900p monitor. The drawback is that it you may not be able to play the AAA games for the following years.
would a gtx 1050 ti fit in this computer
Marcel Montgomery Yes you can. I have one on mine
alright thanks bro
IT WORKS GOOD WITHOUT LAG ? EVEN IF THE POWER SUPPLY 240W?
Curious Duck yes sir. its what I use to play. every settings on high
OH THAT COOL ,im goona get one soon
can i but GT710 2GB ?
Hi, yes you can...
Is processor upgradeable ?
Why buy the optiplex? Just buy a good price optiplex in the first place 😂
because its cheap bugdet pc
At the time, you were actually DOWNGRADING the video. The HD530 in the i3 CPU is faster...oh well!
Worst Design - All Dell Optiplex PCs
You could at least put a GT 1030. COME ON !
It's easier to buy a better used PC.
