Putting graphics card in a optiplex.790 mt

[obiwanplayzftw]

Hello
I've been looking for a gpu that can only consume 30w for the power consumption it is a gt 1030 in the optiplex 790 Mt but here are two things I would like to know
Is it compatible with the system
And does it fit with the system or can it be with full brackets
Just asking thanks for the help have a nice day

the gt 1030 should work with the computer. i used to have a dell optiplex 790 mt and i installed a graphics card that was bigger than the gt 1030.

Just so you know, a 790 MT(mini tower) will use a standard power supply. This means you are not limited to a low power card if you are willing to upgrade the power supply. Not only that, but the motherboard puts out a full 75W, so you aren't limited to 30W cards either. This is for the MT only, the DT and SFF models are a different story.

You can go up to GTX 1050TI (without supplemental power connector) on your power supply, is it enough?
Stronger GPUs would require PSU upgrade.

Here is Zotac 1050TI on Optiplex 3010 SFF with 240 W PSU and it is working full load and no overheat.

Your Mini Tower has 265 w power supply, so you good.

Anything else I can help you with?
