Will this GT 1030 Low Profile fit inside my Optiplex 390 SFF?

[gingerrankin]

Your PSU is only 240 w. It is too low for any GPU.

If you look at page 16 of the manual, it indicates that for the SFF option the maximum watt allowed in the PCI x16 slot is 25 watts. Totally inadequate

There are people who have upgraded with higher power gpus. A lot of dell pcs say 25w max on the pcie slot when they do support the full 75w.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from Kris_5 : "**Don't Delete*** Will the GT 1030 2 GB DDR3 fit inside my Optiplex 390 SFF?"

User Manuel: https://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/optiplex-390-tech-guide.pdf

Video Card: https://www.staples.ca/en/zotac-geforce-gt-1030-zone-edition-2gb-gddr5-graphic-card-zt-p10300f-20h/product_2868124_1-CA_1_20001

It comes with a low bracket profile thing. Any responses will be appreciated.

gpu Dimensions: 182mm x 111.15mm x 34mm (7.17in x 4.38in x 1.34in)




looking through the manual for the small form factor:

G R A P H I C S / V I D E O C O N T RO L L E R
NOTE: MT supports full height (FH) cards and DT and SFF supports low profile (LP) cards.
Card length can be longer than standard Half Length Card but cannot be a Full Length Card.

PCIe x16 Slots
(Voltage supported 3.3V/12V)

Height (inches/centimeters) 2.731 /6.89
Length (inches/centimeters) 6.6/16.765




based on what i see the GPU has a length of7 inches while the manual says the length of SFF is 6.6


so doubt it will fit (anyone else see anything i missed feel free to correct me) unless low profile bracket changes something (never dealt with em so I can't say if it changes measurements or not)

There are some shorter versions of the 1030.

Sorry looks like the junkdetector is deleting your threads for some reason. You must have done something for it to hate you.

What a mess.

I am not sure where is the first post, but I will try to end it.

Zotac GTX 1050TI will work on Dell 240 watt PSU without any problems.

This is your PC

This is similar Optiplex 790 SFF

Confirmation that it is working great on 240 watt PSU http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3749656/gtx-1050ti-dell-optiplex-3010-sff.html

If you insist on GT 1030, then go with GIGABYTE GeForce GT 1030 GV-N1030D5-2GL Low Profile https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-GeForce-GV-N1030D5-2GL-Computer-Graphics/dp/B071DY2VJR/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1536554274&sr=1-3&keywords=gt+1030+low+profile+gddr5

I verified that both Zotac and GigaByte cards have included low profile brackets in the box.
