Final conclusion on the dell 790 sff

[adem.jusic5]

Well its me again.I'm just throwing this out there.I'm about to get the dell 790 sff and i'm putting a 1050 in it.Some of you say that it works fine even tho it says the pcie only gives 35W.Meanwhile some of you say it wont work so i'm really torn apart.I dont want to make a mistake so for 1 more time.Will it or will it not work.I know this might have been answered already but yeah,Thanks again everyone this forum helped me a lot

Same mobo? as that's an old CPU now.

What do you mean? Am i getting the same cpu the i5 2400? if thats the question then yes.I'm building this as a budget build and most of the 790s come with that cpu so i'm getting the pc then buying the card seperately.I might even sell it since they are more expensive in full package.They're around 350$ in my country while i'm getting it for around 260$

that's the question. I was wondering if they had updated the 790 with a newer mobo and newer cpu, as that would render the reddit conclusion invalid.

Nah its still the same old i5 2400 and i got another confirmation of it working from a mod on this forum.So i'm going for it
