[SOLVED] Is a 305 power suply enough for an intel core 2 duo e6850 and a gt 710?

[GabrielTheNoob]

Hello
I want to upgrade my desktop dell optiplex 755
i want to upgrade the gpu to a 710 or anything that can work on a 305 watt psu(i have gma 3100)
i want to upgrade my ram from 2gb to 4gb

sorry if the description is messy english is my second language

Is this the dell Optiplex 755 SFF case?

710 GT/730 GT/1030 GT will all work as long as they are low profile.

You can easily run any of those matched with e6850 or up to a Q6600.

The motherboard uses an ODD CPU placement that limits your GPU options to Single-slot and a length limit of around 11 inches "Interference with the 20+4 pin connector". You can replace the PSU with anything on the market should you want a little more muscle provided you max the CPU out "Q6600/Q6700".

710/730/740/750 TI/1030/1050/1050 TI/RX 460* all have single slot options and a reasonable to pair on OEM LGA775.
* requires a PSU upgrade

I intended to answer that above but it seems the forum doesn't like the formatting and removed it. 😕

You can upgrade the CPU to the max Q6600/6700 without replacing the power supply.

You can add these GPU's with a CPU upgrade without replacing the power supply.
710/730/1030 " With a BIOS update"

Upgrades beyond that would require you to do so.

sorry for late reply

wil this one fit?

edit:can you tell me where i can find a the bios update for it if i need it

 

[delaro]

Yes, that 710 will fit and you won't need a BIOS update to run it you would only need that for a 10 series card like the 1030.

[delaro]

It's a single slot GPU, any Single-slot card will fit.
