Hello /g/, I know just a little about PC hardware and I'm

This is the 1050 I was referring to, it looks the exact same size as the gt 610 currently installed.

I have no clue what power supply would even fit in this. The PSU installed is oddly shaped and tiny as fuck.

>>59746944
if you are gonna be playing lots of vidya I would buy a new case and a low end rig

>>59746959
Would the 1050 save it?

dells use proprietary front panel bullshit that you cant get pin outs for i would get an rx 460 if you can have full height cards

I'd start from scratch.

There are always weird roadblocks to upgrading prebuilts that aren't """gamer""" focused.

Yeah, but I can spend like $120 on the 1050 and call it a day. Also what would be a good build for around $300-ish.

reuse hdd and pirate win 7 if you look through amazon you can prob source stuff a little cheaper

>>59747113
Thanks. I keep that noted.

Bump...
Still need some advice on the 1050 implant.

You can remove the front panel cluster on a lot of different Dells, so that's not really your worst problem with sticking the board in a new case...

The pressing issue is the board layout is backwards on a lot of them (including OP's). You could get it to fit in a standard case, but any graphics card you slap into it isn't going to line up even close to the expansion panel. It will be on the top of the case, and the back panel ports are going line up with the expansion ports on the bottom.

Your CPU is going to be a bottleneck that prevents stuff like BF1 from running at an acceptable framerate no matter what kind of card you rig up. It's time to buy a new computer with a CPU that isn't 10 years old.

At the very least, you can pick up a newer Dell workstation with like 3rd gen i5 in it for ~$150 and slap the 1050 in that.

hes right the only way that q9500 would have a chance would be to oc the hell out of it and you cant do that with a premades mobo

>>59746897
I have my plex server running on one of those and it barely does 1 transcode, you're gonna need to scrap the whole thing minus the HD maybe. The case is not worth the trouble trying to modify to fit parts into.

Save my friend, and wait to see how Ryzen 3 does, it should be in your budget but at 300ish, it's gonna be rough. I'd suggest putting most of your cash into your CPU and looking on craiglists/ebay for a cheap used GPUs. My town has a recycling center which also has a computer inside, if your town has a similar place, you could ask if they got anything recent and save yourself some cash.

Are you in the US? You can probably earn like 100 bucks on Swagbucks if you have some mobile phones to run apps 24/7

>I kinda have this mentality of "why fix what isn't broken" so I haven't really considered upgrading. This machine does everything It want it to but play games.

I have this problem too. Not uncommon desu, rather that that buying friviously shit all th time

I've been checking for higher wattage SFF power supplies on Amazon and shit. It doesn't look like I can get any higher than 280 watts though (https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Dell-Dimension-Optiplex-Desktop/dp/B001RRGH7K/ref=pd_sim_147_4?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B001RRGH7K&pd_rd_r=Q43826TGX83D7QDH7JBC&pd_rd_w=hX8Od&pd_rd_wg=i9v6M&psc=1&refRID=Q43826TGX83D7QDH7JBC).

If you want to find one yourself just type in "sff power supply optiplex 760" or some shit.

I don't know if you should just plug in a 1050, since it recommends 300 watts. You might be okay if you use stock settings or undervolt it or something. I'd still be careful though.

If you're mainly going to play Overwatch, you're probably going to be fine. This video has a Q6600 with a 750 Ti playing Overwatch.

You'll be able to get better fps, but that power supply is kind of dangerous.

i have an optiplex 980 sff like that with the 235w psu.

the nicest graphics card you can put in there (and it's not nice) it's a GT610

upgrading the PSU is gonna be tough because there is no room. dell mobo uses proprietary system and there will be some snipping involved if u decide to go through with it.

just don't bother tbqhphamalam
