Optiplex 7010 SFF, GPU upgrade
I have a Dell Optiplex 7010 SSF, Corei7 3770 - 6 GB ram - power supply 240W
I want to know What is the highest Vega Card Compatible with it?
I want to run high graphics games like Assassins Creed: Syndicate, So i want to buy Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 or GeForce GTX 660, AMD Radeon R9 270 Or Radeon HD 7870 or something else , but
Someone told me, Not all graphics cards work with you, It's about what is compatible with your device, motherboard, your power supply and what can be carried , Modern graphics cards are working on 600W or higher power supply and your power supply working on 240W so you have no chance to run these cards on your computer
and too your device is compatible with "Mini" graphics card only.
So can i know what graphics cards can i run with my power supply or my device.
Thanks a lot :)

NONE of those cards FIT physically or have anywhere NEAR ENOUGH power for an SFF system with 220 - 240W power supply. NO CARD FITS AT ALL in USFF because USFF does not have slots. GIGABYTE GeForce GT 1030 GV-N1030D5-2GL GDDR5 is the ONLY choice.

The optional card that dell supports is 1GB AMD RADEON HD 7570 DPN# 4C5DK

BEWARE OF THE DDR4 version of this card as its JUNK.
The SFF (small form chassis) uses Low profile video cards. The MT (mini tower) and DT (desktop) can use both Full height video cards and Low profile video cards.
Validated Dell OEM video cards =
VVYN4, D7DYD, 2C7NH AMD Radeon HD7470
0WH7F, N1N66, NFXD5, 2FVV6 AMD Radeon HD7470 Low profile
9M4KG, NJ0D3 AMD Radeon HD7570
KFWWP, 4C5DK AMD Radeon HD7570 Low profile

I have a spare Dell Optiplex 7010 i5-3570 SFF 3.4Ghz 12GB RAM 240GB SSD that I'm using to learn networking with a Windows PC (I'm a macOS and Linux guy). I need a HDMI output. And I'm just wondering if the "GIGABYTE GeForce GT 1030 GV-N1030D5-2GL Low Profile 2G Computer Graphics Card" you've linked to above will work with my Optiplex.

There are problems with GT 710 720 730 cards
They lack sufficient pins to work in an X16 slot
Many makers use and X1 or X4 slot which causes them to not work.
I did find and order a GT730 that does work.
However its not cheap and not faster than a GT1030

I added the Lenovo Geforce GT 730 2GB low profile. Works fine and is faster than the build in video. Ordered from Amazon.

I'm a bit confused around these topics.
I have the exact same specs as OP except that I have more RAM (16 GB). Would a GTX 1050 Ti Low-Profile require an external PSU, or can I work with the 240w one? I'm not planning on overclocking anything for "extra performance". I only need a decent GPU if possible.
I see that GT 1030 is mentioned to be the best you can get on this computer, but the question/answer conflicts confuse me a bit. I'm talking about a Low-Profile GTX 1050 Ti if that makes any difference.

@aakashchamola
1050 and 1650 are 75W cards.
Using with 240W or less power supply will destroy the PSU killing your dell.
Newly Released
XFX Speedster SWFT105 Radeon RX 6400
is a 45W card $170

Hey @speedstep
I checked the XFX Speedster SWFT105 Radeon RX 6400
I am not sure if it is compatible with dell optiplex 7010 sff it requires ddr5 and this one is ddr6 and pcie slot version is also different it should have been 3.0 but it's 4.0. Do you have any other suggestions
I am thinking to completely upgrade my system to its maximum
Right now i have :
i3 3220
8gb ram (4*4gb ddr3)
1tb hdd
240w psu
And i am thinking of adding these
2*4gb ddr3 rams,
i7 3770
480gb ssd replacing the optical
And graphic card that i am still thinking of what to choose

@aakashchamola
The type of memory on the video card GDDR5 is not relevant to the card working. RX6400 is recommended due to being 45W card and single slot low profile. Works in every dell I tried.

@speedstep ok i checked the combination if i7 3770 and the RX6400 and it gives bottleneck of 46%.
any other suggestions you have, how about low profile 1030.

3770 is fine with RX6400
Look at the results for

You will want 16 gigs of ram for most things.

Just as a sanity check, the RX6400 should definitely work with my SFF. I have the Optiplex 9020SFF with the i7-4790 processor and 32GB of RAM. Just as an added safety measure (And to give a little more breathing room), I'm going to replace the power supply with one out of an XE SFF, which can handle more power IIRC (those can handle about 300W compared to the stock 240W.)
