  • Today we are going to show you how to install a FULL-SIZED graphics card into the Dell Optiplex. The Dell Optiplex has a hard drive cage/bay right near the PCI-E slot. This prevents you from using some of the bigger/better cards on the market. By removing this hard drive cage, you can install any GPU your heart desires.

    The tips for removing the riveted cage were tremendous! VERY helpful.
    After I got it all put back together, I found that my new video card (GTX 1660 super) does not clear the ram tabs. The backplate on it is metal, maybe aluminum, and I could probably grind 1-2mm off and it would probably fit. Im hesitant to grind on a brand new $350USD video card to fit into an old PC though. It was going SO well until this hangup.
    I might be better off to just scavenge the drive, processor and ram and find a new motherboard/case combo that will fit everything. SO... just wanted to put that out there as a PSA that GTX 1660 Super won't fit by just a millimeter or two.
