    I did the same upgrades on my SFF 7010 that I picked up a year ago, except for the GPU. I installed an RTX A2000 so that I could play the games in my Steam library. It's a 70w card and it draws its power from the 75w PCIE rail.

    Gracias For the Content. You have 4 ram slots; you could add the 2x4gb kit for a total of 24gb, test a before and after to see what uplift can be gained; may not be in FPS but 1% lows could increase also machine can multi-task more; such as game and capture at same time - OBS - as no capture on rx6400; peace

    I have an RX550 and an Intel Celeron but I will change it to an i53570 because my power supply is 240 watts, it is the one that comes from the factory with the Optiplex 7010 and I think it will limit me with the i73770, do you know if there will be a big difference between those processors?

    Hello, I'm considering upgrading my Dell Optiplex 7010 DT, and my budget is only $180.
    PC Specs:
    CPU: i5 - 3470
    GPU: None
    RAM: 8GB 1333 MHz
    Storage: 500 HDD
    PSU: 250W
    I was thinking of buying the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 550 4G OC, but I'm not sure if it will fit into the OptiPlex 7010 DT, and I also don't know if the PSU (250W) would be okay for it. I'm also considering upgrading the RAM from 8GB to 16GB, but an SSD (instead of upgrading RAM) would be useful too; that HDD is really slow. (Also, take into account that I intend to use the PC primarily for older games (and some CS). Perhaps some newer games, but not ones that are too demanding.)
    What do you think I should do?

    • @Cryptic851
      @Cryptic851 10 місяців тому

      Definitely get a SSD and 16 GB ram if you intend to play older games you could get away with a GTX 1030 as the go for as low as 30 euro.

    did you have to turn off secure boot in the bios menu before installing the gpu? i read you have to disable secure boot or the pc won't boot up after installing a gpu.it says you can't install anything that is offbrand or the pc won't boot up. so you have to disable the secure boot before installing anything that isn't the same brand as the pc.
