Linux Compatibility

Must use Dell or PNY or Gigabyte or MSI LOW PROFILE Single slot card. GT1030 is the only thing I would recommend. Anything more requires optional 365W power supply with TOWER Model. 

Vostro 3470 can be purchased with ubuntu pre installed.

When installing an after-market graphics card into a Windows PC with UEFI secure boot enabled, the system may not boot.  This is true for ANY PC not just Dell.
