Great information coming from this video. Liked and Subscribed. I’m wondering if the Optiplex 7040 will accept the same list of ram you posted. Thanks.
My sister is doing a build with this computer and you have saved her life in looking for parts, Congrats on helping and I hope you prosper in the land of youtube!
I have a 5090 and still pcie x16 at wrong position. This shows how much industry is slow in modification and resistant to change. They think these machines are not for gaming so they don’t care. They feel its not worth their time to spend time on redesign.
I have the same setup,and it's a little bit overheating...but if you put a 80mm fan at front,the video card takes cold air from outside,not heat from power supply..
@@mxkdt I was referring to the single screw holding down the NVME, (thus my mentioning SSD) you mentioned you'd put where to get that, it's ok, I already ordered it.
Hi! Thanks for the detailed video. Please, can you help us providing the specifications of the SSD M.2 mount screw? I'm not really sure wich one do I have to buy, so I can install the Samsung 970 EVO Plus.
The fact that you can't fit it on the x16 pcie slot is a turn off....on a card like those you definitely want to squeeze every bit of horsepower out of it.
I’m entirely new to computers so with this bill can I just plug in the graphics card and play? There’s no other RUclips video explaining on how to get it to work
That computer is a year old now but it is still very new. I bet that it costs a lot. Where did you buy it? Most of the RUclips reviewers usually go with most the 790 and the 3010 and some more of the older systems.
I can’t get my case closed properly. I’ve checked for any obstructions and I have no idea why it won’t close right. You made it look effortless. Any tips?
When i stalling memory, do you install in order? So for example A1 then A2 (white tabs), and B1 then B2 (black tabs)? I've a 3rd stick so I assume I just install that in B1?
Im new to the pc world and wow wish i seen this video on the 5th. i have the dell optiplex 3020 and i was look for a card that was good for gaming for this build. i bought the gt 1030 because i wasn't sure if anything else could fit. i literally got it today its good but i rather would like to get this one. great video.
Hi, do you have dell optiplex 3020 mini tower or small form factor ? ...samll form factor you cant install gtx1650 because pci express x16 slot is on the bottom and top slot is pci express x1 slot wont fit gtx 1650 unless you get mini tower.
Dear Mxkdi... thanks for your video...can you please reply whether dell optiplex 7070 small form factor supports wifi out of the box...I am planning to use it with Linux and hence wanted to check
They can out whatever arbitrary recommended minimum requirements, but the card is pci powered and can never draw more than 75 Watts. And I'd be surprised if it ever uses more that 50W. The cpu is never gonna be more than 95w in a sff pc. Hard drives and ssd's when fully populated take 10-15W at peak load (spin up of mechanical drives) So that's a total of 185w + memory and motherboard, so it won't go over 200w... Enough power left over to install another expansion card as well.

Hey man, even I'm thinking of upgrading my office PC so i really need your help. So i have OPTIPLEX 3070 MT so im planning to get GTX 1650 OC. Do you think it will work fine with it? I have i7 9th gen processor

I was planning to buy the 7050 SFF with i7-6700 cpu and 16 GBs of RAM. But I want to upgrade the video card to the GTX1050ti OC (low profile). Plugging it to the PCI Express x4 slot instead of x16 does it means that the full capabilities of this graphics card will not be achieved?
Hey is it possible to add 16gb ram to a dell optiplex 790 MT? Also what is the most powerful cpu and gpu that's compatible with that system? Thanks in advance!
I've posted on other videos regarding the PSU..and the low clearance of the pcie x16 slot..has anyone tried or thought of using a 300w pico psu? It would free up so much room for better airflow along with better GPU clearance
Hi Mxkdi - thanks for all the vids!! Question (really stuck here) - I have a Precision 3431 SFF w/ I9, 32gb of ram, 500gb sad the little one, and I put in a AMD Radeon Pro WX 3200 graphics card. The main use of the computer is for stock trading (so 4 monitors) then I want to be able to use it for some gaming (call of duty and fortnight). I don't think I choose the right upgrade GPU for my needs. Any suggestions on how to upgrade this SFF that has a new I9? Thank you!
@@mxkdt I am also running 4 dell monitors for stock trading by daisy chain. So what upgrades should i do? I was a good card that is can handle the monitors plus some good gaming. I have the dell 32gb ram should i upgrade that to a better brand? thank you
hello great videos, i have a 7050 SFF as well and id like to boost my graphics card, what do you recommend for that to keep up with current PC games that my 12 year old likes to play, like Fortnite, and other popular games. Mine has the I7 7700 processor. i would like to use my original power supply as well, thanks
Hi, yes you can only use low profile video card in small form factor case and you have to check and see how many watts is your power supply 180w or 240w?
The real question for me it would be how long the PSU will live and how are those PSU called? Because if mine die then I would have to buy a new PSU but they looks very differe t to the ones I am familiar with.
I have a tower version with 260w psu and 85%. Gtx 1650 s consumes 100w and the CPU 65w. Can this graphics card works correctly ? 16g of ddr4 and 500gb of hdd storage.
you cant put that gtx 1650 with that optiplex 7070 on the specs of that computer is not listed did you change the motherboard???be honest only these are compatible Dual AMD Radeon R5 430 AMD Radeon RX 550 NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 AMD Radeon R5 430 so how did you add a gtx 1650???
Bro i have a hp elite desk 800 g1 sff, processor is i5 4590 with 8 gb ram, 500gb hdd and stock 240 watts psu. I wanted to add a gpu to upgrade it into gaming pc same as to your vid. Any suggestion for the best low profile gpu and do i have to upgrade its power supply whenever i add gpu on it?
Isn't this office pc too expensive to upgrade? Like, you spend 250 on this pc at best, and then 80 bucks on a low-end GPU? Don't you want it to be the other way around? I doubt even a 3rd generation intel i5 CPU would be a bottleneck for this system.
@@gabrielgonzalez5554 no after ram upgrade you may be drawn back to 1333mhx instead of full 1600 dont ask why but it happened to me today althoough my previous ram was already at 1600mhz ?
Damiel Reyes socket 775 is pretty much dead man. The only upgrade you could do would be like to a core 2 quad. Possible a q6000. But you would be better off getting an old 2nd gen core i5 system and a 1050ti or 1660ti

My sister is doing a build with this computer and you have saved her life in looking for parts, Congrats on helping and I hope you prosper in the land of youtube!
I have a 7040 and really am surprised that 3 generations later Dell still has the PCIe slots the wrong way round 😄
I have a 5090 and still pcie x16 at wrong position. This shows how much industry is slow in modification and resistant to change. They think these machines are not for gaming so they don’t care. They feel its not worth their time to spend time on redesign.

Welcome back, the king of OEM Upgrades
Hi, thanks.
I have the same setup,and it's a little bit overheating...but if you put a 80mm fan at front,the video card takes cold air from outside,not heat from power supply..
Just bought system w/o RAM or SSD so this video was perfect. Excellent list of resources also. A keeper.
For the love of god turn on autofocus!
...And turn down that exposure, also.
would appreciate a benchmark test, with games
imagine a lil bit less then 60 frames in barrely comfortable graphics settings in most tripple a titles. some tripple a's perform flawless though.
Great vid and description. Thanks for sharing. Hadn't even heard of the 7070 before. Just dropped a T600 in my 7060 and it's a beast for the cost.
Hi, thanks..
Thats just like dell to put the 8x slot on the left so that you cannot install a dual slot in the 16x slot.
Wouldn't want to make the machine too useful when you can charge people extra for better machines, would you.
Nice upgrade there! I might think about upgrading a dell optiplex 790 MT!
Noooooooo that's a little on the low end pc side go for the 9020 or 5040 or 7050 or 7070 for better speed and handling
I'd be tempted to drill some holes in the PSU case to get some airflow out of that GPU. It's a shame Dell didn't put the x16 slot on the upper side.
i know now i use the 4x for my gtx 1650 low pro lol
Awesome, thanks! Is there any performance or compatibility problems using pcie x16 pin video card in a pcie x 4 slot? Cheers
I'm not sure, but I have a older optiplex and the 1050ti seemed normal, no difference when I upgraded mobos :/
x4 lane seems to be enough with 1650 or 1050Ti, x8 can handle 2080Ti. so don't worry
x16 has better performance than x4, lots more
@@travisstoia4627 no it really doesnt go watch the bench marks on the 7020 optiplex you lose little to no frames at all bud.

If you are opting for the 1650 get the gddr6 version. It's around the same price and performs a little better

Hi! Thanks for the detailed video. Please, can you help us providing the specifications of the SSD M.2 mount screw? I'm not really sure wich one do I have to buy, so I can install the Samsung 970 EVO Plus.
I find that the processor's fan vents blocks the room for these ginormous video cards.
it doesnt trust me
how is the performance hit and power installing the card in x4 slot? Would going with a smaller 1U card like the 1030 be a better choice?
Same question I want to know...
I am wondering the same thing.
kinda sad the PCIe x16 is not at the top, instead there's a x4 l a m e motherboard :(
The fact that you can't fit it on the x16 pcie slot is a turn off....on a card like those you definitely want to squeeze every bit of horsepower out of it.
I’m entirely new to computers so with this bill can I just plug in the graphics card and play? There’s no other RUclips video explaining on how to get it to work
Overdosed Gamin You have to install the Nvidia drivers for that specific graphics card.
Just curious to know, any better graphic cards present on the market that is better than the previous choices given?
That computer is a year old now but it is still very new. I bet that it costs a lot. Where did you buy it?
Most of the RUclips reviewers usually go with most the 790 and the 3010 and some more of the older systems.
is the space between the gpu fan and the power supply a problem? 9:57
Hi, no problem that video card low profile fit fine in that PC.

Dont know what he paid for the PC but graphics card is £160 ram £65 & NVME £160 all in all its not the way to go there are better options
Its shitty of dell, too put the x16 slot as the bottom pcie!
Your HP Compaq series was the best, are you still making videos for the HP Compaq?
Hi, yes if i get different model PC i will upload, teardown and upgrades video..

A quadro LP p1000 can display 4 MONITORS and you can game on it. Its not as good as the 1050ti but it will do.
Does sticking a 1650 in the x4 slot loose performance and power?
I was wondering the same thing. I was under the impression it would not work at all in that slot.
hi friend, is it possible to add a second SSD drive for this model? thanks
Hi, yes you can

hello great videos, i have a 7050 SFF as well and id like to boost my graphics card, what do you recommend for that to keep up with current PC games that my 12 year old likes to play, like Fortnite, and other popular games. Mine has the I7 7700 processor. i would like to use my original power supply as well, thanks
Hi, yes you can only use low profile video card in small form factor case and you have to check and see how many watts is your power supply 180w or 240w?
@@mxkdt thanks for your response, so what current low profile graphics card do you recommend? Thanks
@@mxkdt you can move the motherboard and adapt it to a mini ATX tower or a normal tower?
@@zamirroa Hi, yes it is possible and i do not recommend it.
The real question for me it would be how long the PSU will live and how are those PSU called? Because if mine die then I would have to buy a new PSU but they looks very differe t to the ones I am familiar with.

@@mxkdt I think it is not possible. I just wanted to know how much they last.
I have a tower version with 260w psu and 85%. Gtx 1650 s consumes 100w and the CPU 65w. Can this graphics card works correctly ? 16g of ddr4 and 500gb of hdd storage.
Yes, it should work correctly.
you cant put that gtx 1650 with that optiplex 7070 on the specs of that computer is not listed did you change the motherboard???be honest only these are compatible Dual AMD Radeon R5 430 AMD Radeon RX 550 NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 AMD Radeon R5 430 so how did you add a gtx 1650???
Bro i have a hp elite desk 800 g1 sff, processor is i5 4590 with 8 gb ram, 500gb hdd and stock 240 watts psu. I wanted to add a gpu to upgrade it into gaming pc same as to your vid. Any suggestion for the best low profile gpu and do i have to upgrade its power supply whenever i add gpu on it?

@@mxkdt thanks. Without bothering for the power supply consumption right?
Yes with 240watt power supply works fine and you have to upgrade to SSD for main boot drive

Hi..
Camera no focus.
A RX 560 or 580 would fit?
Can rx550 fit the sff 7070 ?
does the gt 1660 work well? i didn't think there would be enough spare power from the psu to have that as an extra.
Hi, no gtx 1660 will not fit sff case only gtx 1650 low profile or gtx 1050 ti low profile, gt 1030 low profile will fit fine.

Sir can you give me advice what is best graphics card upgrade for my Dell Inspiron 3668 i3-7100 8gb ram
Hi, do you have mini tower or small form factor ?
You could’ve saved money if
You just bought less flashy ram because you’re not gonna see it anyway in that case.
there is physical space for an rtx 3060ti mini?
Will that even work since is on the black slots
Isn't this office pc too expensive to upgrade? Like, you spend 250 on this pc at best, and then 80 bucks on a low-end GPU? Don't you want it to be the other way around? I doubt even a 3rd generation intel i5 CPU would be a bottleneck for this system.
Would a GTX 750ti go?
Would the video cards recommended for this optiplex 7070 fit on a optiplex 3070 min from the video the size is the same
Hi, what model optiplex 3070 do you have is it minitower or sff or mico ?
We have the 7070 intel i7 9 series tower. We don't know what to get.
Hi, yes you can upgrade RAM and SSD and Video Card if you want..
Can the gtx 1650 be added to an optiplex 5050?
When you've done an upgrade do you have to fo anything to do with software?
I think that you have to download the graphic cards drivers and the ram is updated automatically in the system, that´s what I know
@@gabrielgonzalez5554 no after ram upgrade you may be drawn back to 1333mhx instead of full 1600 dont ask why but it happened to me today althoough my previous ram was already at 1600mhz ?
I have a Lenovo Thinkcentre M58p tower that has a Core2Duo E8400, can you recommend me an upgrade for the cpu and a gpu?
Damiel Reyes socket 775 is pretty much dead man. The only upgrade you could do would be like to a core 2 quad. Possible a q6000. But you would be better off getting an old 2nd gen core i5 system and a 1050ti or 1660ti
