Graphic card fit

[Johnny_23]

I have a dell optiplex 755 dt I want to knew if a GeForce FTC 960 4gb card will fit in and what upgrades such as power supply,processor and ram can be mad

The best CPU is the Q9650, or Q9550. It requires a low profile single slot 25W GPU. IDK of a good PSU upgrade for that.
The MT size case can handle a Bigger PSU,and full height GPU But the Zotac GTX1050Ti Mini is a good GPU and about the only one that fits, and it runs off of the PSU anyway. Considering how cheap they are I would get the MT. It doesn't have the 25W GPU limit.
Anyway- DT mods-
1- Some people ignore the 25W limit. Will you be one of them? The risk is yours.
2- There is a DT 90* PCIe riser card that allows 1/2 length full height GPUs. Dell# G5459

3- Officially supports 8GB DDR2 800 low density X64 RAM. There are reports of 16GB but 4GB DDR2 is evpensive.
4- Q9650,Q9550 RW 134 is the quad core heatpipe cooler.
MT Mods-
1-Any ATX PSU
2- Any decent card other/better than the ZOTAC GTX1050 MINI series will need modding to fit and a PSU upgrade. Even ITX cards are too big as is.
3- Ram and CPU are the same. D9729 is the heatpipe cooler for the MT.
Here are the builds for that.
