Optiplex 755 GPU

[Diox55]

I have an optiplex 755 (yeah laugh at me xD) and, I know an XFX 7750 will fit in it, but will any Nvidia cards with GDDR5?

 

[NiCoM]

I would bet my money on the GT 750 or 750ti, it's a fairly small card with a low power consumption, and GDDR5.

EDIT: a cheap 750 comes in at around the 7750's price, some of the aftermarket versions are longer than others, so i found a link for one of the shorter cards for you to follow: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-01gp42751kr

Problem is, I know that card is fairly small, is the case is big enough to only fit 7.5 inches or less gpu, and won't support the dual slot card. I think (even though I'm biased towards Nvidia, particularly EVGA), I'll stick with 7750.

If you're planning on using it for gaming i would recommend getting something faster, since this card won't make it in some new games already, i would suggest the GT 650, if you can find it, gainward & Sparkle made single-slot versions of this card.

The reason im telling you not to get the 7750, is because i once had a 6850 (it's faster than the 7770). And i clearly remember how it performed, it would only make low with some medium settings (if im lucky) in games like BF4, AC4, Crysis 1/2/3. The 7750 is much slower. Of cource if you play games that doesn't require much to run, and doesn't need to run anything at over medium settings. Then the 7750 is fine.

EDIT: EVGA also made a GT 640 single-slot which my friend used to play on (about 7770 performance), might be worth getting that?

I'm not laughing! (I have the Optiplex 755 with Q9550 running Win 8.1 (very well) and also another one with an E6500 (I think). I used graphics cards that would run with the existing 305 watts PSU (not GDDR5).

Here are some graphics cards that have GDDFR5: http://www.evga.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?type=0

You may have to upgrade the PSU accordingly.

Heres a 640 from MSI (I prefer EVGA, but no single slots) for 89 buckaroos. http://www.amazon.com/MSI-DL-DVI-D-Graphics-N640-1GD5-LP/dp/B00ENU2K5G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1398202829&sr=8-2&keywords=gt+640+gddr5

Honestly guys, I know this is a lower power rig, and if I wasn't planning to build a PC, I'd put alot more upgrades. But the 7750 is reported running sky, far cry 3, etc on high. But I'd have to bump up ram, the cpu (2.33 ghz core 2 duo)

I have an optiplex 755 (yeah laugh at me xD) and, I know an XFX 7750 will fit in it, but will any Nvidia cards with GDDR5?

It is all depends on your budget.

This card will work on your PSU and will beat all above mentioned cards, and it will fit easy?

That length is good, now tell me the fan on my current card (http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-1024MB-Graphics-01G-P3-2615-KR/dp/B00847TOLC/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1398579864&sr=1-1&keywords=gt+610) the heigth is the same as that one right? If so, DUDE YOU ARE EPIC!! NINJA POWER EPICNESS!

 

[Diox55]

DUDE I THINK IT'LL FIT!!! Random dimension time:

Geforce gt 610:

5.7 x 1 x 4.4 inches

XFX 7750 (card I was going to buy)

8.3 x 0.8 x 4.4 inches

Gtx 750

6.34
1.57
4.33

6.34
1.57
4.33

Which GTX 750 card is this?

Note that XFX 7750 is longer than 7.5 inches, but it is completely thin, single slot card, that is why it can be longer than 7.5 inches. 7.5 inches is distance to CPU cooler, card can be longer, but card cooler is the problem.

Anything else I can help you with?

The only thing that concerns me is the height. At 1.57 inches tall, its half an inch than both of those, and the problem with the dell is the capacitors are like right above the pci slot.

 

[Kisianik]

I can see that you know your business - capacitors.

I am going to stick here a few pictures of your motherboard for future references (I don't want to look for them or download them later)
Your motherboard model is WG860, can you confirm it with CPUZ or similar program

And this one is a huge picture

lets see.

P.S. this is Optiplex 755 SFF motherboard, I know it is not yours, but capacitors are in the same place and picture is taken from perfect position - it is easy to see the troubles location.

Don't say NO right away, so far no one, I repeat no one complained about capacitor problem and GPU cooler, but 1 person, and I forgot, which card it was.

This post is work in progress.

Edit, addon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYeXPnIhkW0 no English, but at least you can see that card in hands.

 

[Diox55]

Well, I'll take your word for it. I'm just slightly concerned about it hitting capacitors, but maybe I'll take the 610 and measure it. I'm for sure it'll fit no problem as of right now, that 4.3 width should fit fine right? Unless their is some counsel who wants to destroy everything I know about computers xD.

4.3 is height, 1.57 is width...

Do you have 610 on hands?

Do you have any brick computer store near you? So you can get something similar and return it after testing...

The are a few cards which is similar to that, one of them is Zotac GTX 650 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500290

Hi, I'm having the same problem, I want to upgrade my graphics card with this one: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-750-ti-review,3750-5.html, I know is a dual slot bracket by I could remove it, no problem with that, but what it concerns me is the height of the video card, I don't know if it will be touching the capacitors that are above the pci express slot. Please I need you help on this. Thanks.
