GPU upgrade for DELL 9010SFF 250w?

[iloveapplepieman]

Hi, i'm new to PC building and pretty broke as well. Saving up for a possible graphics card upgrade but I don't have that good of a PC. The specs are below;

CPU: i7-3770 3.4ghz
Chassis: Dell Optiplex 9010 SFF
GPU: Integrated
RAM: 16 GB (4x DDR4 4GB)
PSU: 250w?

Would appreciate an answer. o/

i believe the psu is not upgrade-able on this unit?

theres a slot for a GPU. Low profile though

yes.however if your psu is not replaceable then i believe you are stuck with 250w.most low profile card like gtx 750ti/1050/1050ti usually needs atleast 300w.u can use them on your system but its a risk imo.or u can try the new gt 1030 low profile card.it seems to perform nicely on newer games and use less power as well.

it says the 1030 requires 300w too? to be honest, i don't really need that big of a GPU. thinking of maybe going for the GTX 730

u mean the gt 730?might as well go for gt 740 if it comes cheap.i use a gt 740 on my low spec built.paired with an i5.2500 and it works well with games at 720p.
