Hi

What are my gpu options for my dell optiplex 7010 sff 2023 model.

It has 180w psu.

Please list options with current power supply 180w and options with upgraded power supply of 300w.

Thanks for your help.

Options are better with a 300w PSU, but still may be a little limited with an SFF model.  All would have to be the LP (low profile) model with short bracket.

  • GTX 1050
  • GTX 1050 Ti
  • GTX 1650

If you decide on any of the above 3, Google the dimensions.  Check that against measuring the room inside of your PC.  Reason being is because there's so many variants of those cards.

Here's a list of lower watt options if not interested in the above 3.  Keep in mind many are still beyond the realm of a 180w PSU.

Quadro's P400, 600, & 1000

Edited from PC Parts Bin:

Direct X 12 GPU's for modern rendering:

GT 1030 GDDR5

RX 550

RX 6400

Direct X GPU's for previous decade rendering:

AMD R7 200 series (previous and branded from the ATI HD series graphics cards) Important - Check wattages.

GT 710, 720, & 730

55w GTX 750

Re:  What are my gpu options for my dell optiplex 7010 sff 2023 model.  Please list options with current power supply 180w and options with upgraded power supply of 300w.

The proper answers for the query were provided:

The GPU upgrade option for system with 180w power supply is Zero, not having enough power.

The GPU upgrade option for 300w power supply was provided by @bradthetechnut 

I did not provide GPU option for 300w power supply because the uncertainty of region availability and confirmation for system compatibility.  Although, I believe that both responses were providing good answers for this thread topic query. 

However, they both are unmarked as accepted answers just because of your unsuccessful purchase.  The address and payment type issue should not be a reason to influent the information of technical capability for graphics upgrade.

I may decide not to contribute further to an unsolved thread that other community members can not be benefit from.  Most users would just look for the proper answers from solved threads.

that seems to be the best power supply you can get
or else use a GPU without power needs

@isazenisolutions​ hi thanks for replying. 

Can you recommend any gpu which is compatible with my current psu.

I have a gtx 750ti but it's rated 60w as power consumption. 

Will this work without any issues please note I have i5 13500 as cpu.

Unfortunately, there is no option to upgrade a graphics card to your OptiPlex 7010 SFF (2023).  With your current 180w PSU, your system will not safely support any add-on graphics card.  I am still puzzle with the power configuration for this model.  Why Dell uses a little bitty power supply to run the i5-13500, which has a demand up to 154w in turbo mode.

Google the spec sheet for the new 7010.

Outside of that 30w Quadro P400 and 30w GT 1030 GDDR5 are the best I can suggest on a low-watt PSU.

Also be aware Chino accurately pointed out - "Why Dell uses a little bitty power supply to run the i5-13500, which has a demand up to 154w in turbo mode."

@bradthetechnut​ this particular model came with two options of power supply.

I am in talks with dell uk to get 300w variant.

What will be my options if I was successful.

@bradthetechnut​ thanks for all your help.

I bought the 300w PSU.

Will look into the 1650 as it seems to be the best option.

@bradthetechnut​ Hi it didn't. Dell just put me through to upgrade options a company in the UK. They cancelled my order as they needed a UK address and I tried buying the compatible 260w supply but it's only listed on us and canada website but couldn't even do that as dell doesn't accept foreign paypal or credit card plus they want a us telephone number. This is ridiculous as none of the eu and I'm based in ireland stock any of the psu only 180w one.

I feel like I'm going around in circles with them for the past week. Really angry with there customer service.

Could there be stricter limits on PSU size (power consumption) in Ireland (EU) and/or in UK?  And that's why the larger PSU isn't available for you?

@RoHe​ I don't know the reason for it. This particular model came with two PSU options according to the manual. But I was never given a choice of parts I bought off the shelf unit. Sorry for the late reply I don't receive notifications.

@RoHe​ One final question. I found a listing on local website for 260w power supply the seller messaged me saying the sku is 5fk7c. I know this is a stupid question but does this mean it's the same power supply as this

https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-260w-power-supply/apd/5fk7c/computer-chassis-components


He won't accept returns. But it's only 30 euros.

Any helpful advice will be appreciated.

Thanks
