Found one of these in the dumpster with a fried Pentium D and no RAM, HDD, nor optical drive. Dropped $45 for a Core 2 Quad, Radeon HD, and 8 GB of RAM. Surprisingly fast and capable, considering it's a decade old.
Id like to post a vociferous shout out to this young man ! Now THIS is a real tutorial, The entire thing is very well done, clear & consise . The instruction methods are very visual and also includ excellent vocal description of what he is doing each step ! Kudos Kiddo ! Your an excellent teacher.
For those of you asking what video card he's using, here's the best way to determine what will work: Look at how many amps a card takes up, then look at how many amps the power supply can withstand on the 12 volt rail. You also need to figure in how many amps the processor is taking up, because that's also on the 12v rail. I've had success with the Radeon HD 2400 pro, the Had 3450 pro, and the HD 4550. Look for cards with comparable amps to those 3.
Thanks Steve for posting. Very informative and timely as I am just going to upgrade my 755 SFF HD to 1TB and hoping there will be no probs. Unlike other publishers on YT you have responded to many questions which is great. Thumbs-up to you!
I recently got my hands on one of these 755s (The small form factor version) and discovered something interesting about it. I had upgraded the CPU to a Core2 Quad Q9650 when I realized the Bios now showed options related to Vt-d virtualization technology. Turns out both it's motherboard and the CPU I'd installed supported it. I never got to play with Vt-d and I am a fan of virtualization so I thought about what I could do with it. Naturally, gaming is my first go to when contemplating ideas so I came up with setting up a couple of VMs and see if I can't play some multiplayer between them. So I got my hands on a couple of gt 520 cards (one pci and one pcie x1) with 512mb of video ram and slotted them in. They aren't powerful cards by today's standards, but plenty good enough for some older games I was interested in installing. I gave the system 8 Gb of 800mhz RAM and a 1 Tb 10krpm HDD. I knew that since it was going to end up basically being a server and two desktop computers that even though I was just installing older games, it needed all the RAM and drive speed it could get without compromising storage space for the games to be installed on. I installed Ubuntu Server on the computer along with Linux KVM to be the hypervisor. Then I set up my drive partitions and two virtual machines, and I assigned each one of the graphics cards. Then I installed Ubuntu Desktop on each VM and they were good to go and have the games installed via wine. I debated whether to set up a multi-seat configuration by just plugging in two monitors and keyboard/mouse combos, or whether I wanted it to run as a headless server for a couple of thin clients, but I settled on the multi-seat setup for perfomance reasons. Remote desktop just adds a delay to everything, and for gaming it needed to be responsive. That said, so long as I wasn't trying to remote in over the internet it should have been more managable. I now run it as a headless server with a few cheap thin clients in separate rooms so neither player can complain about cheating by looking at the other's screen.
Hey Steve, thanks so much for your help. I got the same video card as you suggest in the video for my Optiplex 745 and it works an absolute treat, and was easy to install thanks to your video. Now my son can do his movie editing and play Minecraft on two screens with good speed and rendering. We're both delighted. Many, many thanks again.
for anyone asking, you can'tupgrade the power supplies on any of the 745 optiplex series EXCEPT the 745 MINITOWER, the chasis usies a btx? which means virtually everything in it is proprietary. if you check out my chnanel you can actually see the upgrade i did to my optiplex which was upgrades CPU to c2d e6700, and a 6670 HSI thats about as good as its going to get which this platform, i can run any modern game on my platform without issue. bear in mind that with my graphics card i had to physically mod the card by shaving off some of the plastic to get it to fit in the case
Watching the video, I realized that as I worked on a RAM stick on my unit, I was not pushing it in to click. That little bit of info, solved a problem and got me running again. I was trying to simply set the stick in and close the side clips. Thank you.
Good video. These old boxes can be upgraded really cheap to turn them into decent office-level workstations. Have you tried a PCIe graphics card on one of these that gives a dual-monitor output?
@Umbrella Corporation that wouldn't work because of how the bios would read the processor. it's the same overall chipset, but the bios is holding this thing back
Thanks Steve! You make it look so very easy!! I got this saved so when it comes time for me to upgrade--this is the vid --I'll be going to. Thanks again--Steve! Sandy Champion
Hello! I'm a Computer Tech. I've been upgrading computers since 1998. I have a vendor that sells me used SFF Dell's Optiplex like the one you are displaying here. I only request the Intel i3's, i5's and i7's. They don't have any hard drives or memory which, I can have at my shop. Believe it or not, he sells me the units for $20.00. Of course, they are in great shape. I bring my own hard drive and ram to make sure they are functioning correctly.I just add 1 TB Western Digital Green hard drives, and 8 GB Ram, I install whatever OS it says on the Product Key and that is all to it. Oh! I sell them for only $99.00 each. And I give the clients a 1 year warranty too!
Good quality video, nice job. One thing that would be good to include was the vid card model so we can know what works well with the board. You know the Dell, HP, Lenovo and other manufacturers don't always play nice with certain brands.
QUICK NOTE!: If you wanna game on this PC, now a few cards will fit in it there this the slim model and a fat model a evga 730 does work but you have to take of the front bracket and if your using VGA run it underneath the GPU to the 2nd port output. just thought I'd let y'all know, my brother was there to help me when I got this PC and a 730 to game on it, and it awesome!!!
Hey I've got a Dell Optiplex 3010 MT and I want to upgrade it, in the PCI slot area, it doesn't have those blue pins, how do I keep the video card in place?
Thanks.. I will no longer upload videos on this channel but use as a reference. my new channel is ruclips.net/user/techstevehd or techstevehd.com.. I will start upload new videos when i get some extra time...
i bought a Asus Eah4350 for my optiplex 755 and i did everything im supposed to but its simply not working. it goes to the windows log in amd then it black screens. PLEASE HELP
This is a great video, thank you so much, i have recently installed a network adapter, but its way to long to fit in so i can close it, got any ideas to solve this please?
Great video, im following the video at this very moment, except, what is the name of the blue plastic hard drive holder in the video, my second drive hd doesn't have one and I cant fix the drive in the bay.
Nice and clear video. Thanks. Now, could you install a second regular size HDD in the DVD bay if you didn't need a DVD drive? I liked your video because I have an old PC very similar to this that I'm also using as a server but it only has an 80 GB HDD and I'd like to add a second storage drive. I have an external DVD that I use when I need it so the server really doesn't need a DVD device in it. The 80GB is fine for it's purpose but I'd like to transfer music and video to a second drive so it doesn't need to rely on an external HDD for storage. What do you think?
Thank you for showing me where the *harddrive* component is. Hard to believe its just below the DVD/Blu Ray components. Was thinking it was probably on the back around the motherboard. Also, what is behind the hard drive then? That box with *DELL* sticker on, what exactly is that for the PC?
got a question i have a dell optiplex 780 but when i try to play games on it on steam it wont let me play any of them what do i have to get for them to work
I have an Optiplex GX 520. It does not have a video card in it and I use the internal video chip. I need it to run full hd video. Will this video card that you use work on my model too? Or would you recomend something better?
Tech Steve SD - Don't you have to upgrade the CPU to a Core 2 Quad (Q6600?) along with the BIOS to be able to use that RAM size and speed? I got an Optiplex 755 recently for $30 off Craigslist. It has 3GB of RAM and is using on-board graphics. I intend to buy a video card for it next month (October) and a new video card for it (GT 1030 - LP). I also plan to upgrade the RAM to 8GB and maybe do a Core 2 Quad in the future.
I am using optiplex 780 SFF and currently I have gt 620 2GB 64bit and I upgraded the processer to an Intel Core 2 Q6700 2.66GHz Quad Core from an Intel core 2 Duo vPro 3.0Ghz. Only problem is that there is not enough cooling in the case so I am upgrading to a new case have any suggestions?
I will be fitting a 2nd HDD to mine soon, run out of diskspace.I brought an external drive but it keeps getting an I/O error when it's got a bit of data on it, so I will assume externals are all crap.Better just fit a second internal, should be easy enough.
Hey Steve. I have purchased a Dell Optiplex 760.. with this (Asus 210-1GD3-L GeForce 210 Nvidia Graphics Card(1GB DDR3,PCI Express 2.0,HDMI,Dual-link DVI,Dust-proof Fan) can you help me find on amazon (UK site) the necessary hard drive to get etc please. many thanks Nick
Good day I have inserted a 1TB(empty, no data store on it{SATA-1}) on my 780 which is the exact same one as yours but afterwards it says it unsupported memory configuration. Please populate DIMM1. 160GB (SATA-0)
My hard drive overheats to 50 degrees to 52 degrees..Crystal Disk Info beeps me to it.. then I have to stop working and activities. Hard drive 3 uncorrectable sector count and 4 current pending sector count.. Does that really mean that I have to change the hard drive? or just install a second one? I will just buy a second drive and if one fails I will still have the other. right? I have 6 GB ram, 320 gb on hard drive, processor is E8400 3.0 Ghz
How big of a hard drive can the dell optiplex handle? I am building a plex server and wanted to put a 4tb hard drive on each slot. Please let me know if you have any experience with this.
Hi great video thanks for uploading..on the Dell 755...I have a problem with my internet connection that's not connecting after update with Windows 10...Which was already running on it.....Any ideas what it could be?
Hi Steve, great video. I just purchased one of these. They are a cheap great PC. I have a question though. Are all these optiplex 755 SFF upgradable? Can you advise on the latest graphics card I can install with the most GB ? I have been advised from the company I purchased the PC from, I cannot upgrade this model? kind regards Danny UK
Friend you could help me, I have a dell optiplex 760 and card nvidia video geforce 210 1gb ddr3 and when I put it on my pc tells me video settings not supported action is required and asks me to remove the video card slot pci-express x16. please help me
Hello I currently have a dell optiplex 755 with a 80gb hard drive. I want to upgrade this and I am looking for a cheap 250gb hard drive that I can upgrade it with. Could you please send me a link to get this. Also I wanted to know could I also keep the 80gb hard drive as a second drive and get maybe another 2.5 hard drive like u mentioned and how I would do that and if you could also get me the link for that kind of smaller hard drive?
i want to update the sound card, the fact its only got 2 channels when 5.1 has 3 jacks means using a usb sound card. its annoying..any ideas on wqhich is a good one as there are so many..ty.
Found one of these in the dumpster with a fried Pentium D and no RAM, HDD, nor optical drive. Dropped $45 for a Core 2 Quad, Radeon HD, and 8 GB of RAM. Surprisingly fast and capable, considering it's a decade old.
well, its brand PC , and brand machines always work more stable than ones we make ourselves, because they are optimized with all the components.
@@uroskostic8570 Not true.
why not the gt 710 ?
Id like to post a vociferous shout out to this young man !

Kudos Kiddo ! Your an excellent teacher.
That was excellent Steve ! As a retired teacher myself, I can tell you you'll make a very good tech teacher ! Thank you very much.
Failed configuration, your assistance will be highly appreciated...
OMG THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE GRAPHICS CARD PART, I COULD NOT FIND ANY TUTORIALS UNTIL NOW!
it's like a tutorial on how to eat a sandwich
For those of you asking what video card he's using, here's the best way to determine what will work: Look at how many amps a card takes up, then look at how many amps the power supply can withstand on the 12 volt rail.

Thanks so much, best tutorial i've seen for upgrading my optiplex 755.
Thanks for the kudos

Also I wanted to know could I also keep the 80gb hard drive as a second drive and get maybe another 2.5 hard drive like u mentioned and how I would do that and if you could also get me the link for that kind of smaller hard drive?
What's the graphic card you used on this? Also is there a better one I can get that will also work on this?
