Optiplex 3020 MT - GPU max wattage and RAM upgrades
Hello all.
I have a Optiplex 3020 MT:
with a power supply of 290W. I want to add an AMD RX 550, but I'm not sure of how much watts this system can give through its PCI-E 16X slot, it is known what's the maximum on this case?.
By other hand, there's a table with compatible RAM for this system?.
That's all, I appreciate your time.

290w psu is enough for the RX 550 which is a low TDP gpu
the X16 slot in MT is spec'd to support up to 75w
compatible ram are 1333 and 1600 MHz UDIMM DDR3 ram for desktop only
max 3020 MT is 2x 8 GB

yw. the Dell oem RX550 is deployed in the Optiplex 7060 and those model have psu up to 260w, less than 290w of 3020. The cpu of 7060 is up to 65w, whereas the 3020 cpu is up to 84w. Dell has calculated all of this so the oem psu is enough for RX550.
