265W PSU - GTX 1050ti / 750ti

[For The lolz]

It´s a DELL 80+ Gold PSU from an optiplex 390

Do you think it can handle it? i think it should but i dont know

Its to low watt. The PSU gives power to everything that are connected.
Recommended power:
350w 750 ti
320w 1050 ti

you should atleast have a 350-400w PSU.

What are the full specs of your Dell Optiplex Mini Tower? If you do not know, then please run speccy, upload an image of the summary to imgur and share the link here ( http://filehippo.com/download_speccy ). Also please take a photo of the label on the side of the power supply, which should have the 12 volt rail. My guess: If either the 750 Ti or 1050 Ti have a 6 pin PCIe socket that is only optional (not required) then it'll very possibly work. I know of instances where people got variants of the 750 Ti to work on both a 220 watt power supply, as well as a 250 watt unit. Every build is different, so this is no way guarantees that it'll work for you. The other thing I'd suggest is if you purchase a new 1050 Ti, simply order from a company with a zero-hassle return policy, in case it doesn't work out. With that said, have you considered upgrading the power supply? It'll only cost $45, after which you could upgrade to the vast majority of graphics cards on the market.

Once the PSU is upgraded, you could purchase a EVGA b-stock 1060 6GB for less than $250. It sells out constantly, but if you set an alert on EVGA's site, and you're ready to purchase at a moments notice, you'll likely be able to snag one within one business week.

My friend got those specs:

i5 2500
GTX 750 ti
Standard HDD 1TB
and some random Mainboard.

With all specs and fans it should come to like 240W output, maybe ill just try it before i sell it to him

wtf 240???? ok that build is not like an amd that by the same performance will drawn near 500w, but thats to low!

95W CPU plus 75W videocard means 170W needed, minimum, on the 12V. The documentation on that says 240W max output on the 12V, but that's if you believe what it says. I think if you get 200W out of the 12V you'd be lucky. That's cutting it too close for me. I'd suggest looking at the 1030, since it only uses 30W.

This all assumes you have no motherboard compatibility issues.

dell notoriously uses high quality power supplies and i wouldn't be surprised if the actual wattage is a bit higher than advertised. otherwise i highly doubt it is less. a power virus via furmark and prime95 is the only way you are going to actually push the wattage up to the theoretical 170w, and i bet you wouldn't get that high. under real world conditions you would drawn noticeably lower than 170w.

there is a 6 core 4960x overclocked to 4.2ghz paired with a 750ti peak 184 watts. even assuming you could pull 184 watts that is still only at 72% the rated wattage of your power supply and right in its power efficiency sweet spot.
