Can I install a graphics card and power upgrade to this model?

I upgraded mine with: Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit, Pentium D 945 (BIOS A11), 4GB DDR2 533MHz RAM (Max), Intel Solid-state drive, SATA3 Port Card, GTX 650 Ti Boosted 2GB Graphics Card, and a 450W Power Supply. All of that coupled with Ethernet connection and this computer has smoothly ran any game I have thrown at it with the settings maxed out! It's awesome.

I tried to put a graphics card in it. The bulky black cover on whatever that thing was in the middle, made it impossible for anything to fit comfortable in. I hooked it up to my computer to see how it would go, but it roared loudly and wouldn't stop. It wasn't normal at all. So no. You can't. You can try but you might hurt the computer. I returned mine. Getting nothing like that, GX620 tower ever again

Both GX620s that I have purchased I did upgrade the PS and graphics card. The boards both have the PCI-16x slots in them and the PS were off the shelf. This is what I was able to do. I hope this helps.

I know your post was almost a month ago; however if you have not received any help here are the graphic card comparison charts that you need to determine how big an upgrade that the new card would be http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/ As far as how big a power supply that you would need, this really depends on how many hard drives, optical drives, ram, etc. that you have. My suggestion would be 600 is usually a decent wattage for a power supply with an upper end graphics card.

It should definitely improve your graphics experience, but double check that your power supply can handle the new card. Also, is your current graphics handler integrated into the cpu or mobo?

I would recommend you upgrade to a 300W power supply if you're going to upgrade the video card.

No, it's a separate graphics card. It's not the worst, but not the best either. If you want to upgrade it, you'll need to upgrade the power supply also.

300W If you upgrade the video card, be sure to change the power supply too!

Yes you can. But after upgrading it if it not work, you'll need to upgrade the Bios. Then you good to go.

No your perfectly fine since this card is a low power consumption card. Now it depends on what kind of processor you have. If you have intel you may need to upgrade it. If you have an amd like a 4100 your perfectly fine. If you have that processor and gpu it only requires 240 watts

Yes you can. You can upgrade to a GTX 650 without having to upgrade the power supply brick. You can also upgrade to the GTX 660 but you will need the larger power supply brick which is about $140.00. I have the GTX 645 in my rig and I love it. I'm playing BF4 at 1080P and it looks beautiful.

Sorry no you would have to find a model with that upgrade or you may contact dell for a custom build pc

the current 300W power supply should be able to support up to GT630 Graphic card. But if you do need to upgrade to a higher end graphic card then you will need a higher power supply.

This currently comes with onboard Intel Graphics Accelerator (GMA) 3000 Series. You may upgrade the graphics by adding a Half Profile PCI-Express card to this unit.

I am not familiar with that model computer but a quick search indicates that its power supply is rated only at 250W. Though the HD7750-1GD5-V2 has relatively light power drain, I would advise a Power Supply upgrade first. BTW, my computer is a homebuilt AMD Athlon x4, 8GB RAM with a 400W supply. The card worked great right out of the box. Tweaking the BIOS to recognize the card is all I needed to do.

I think it's possible to plug a mid-range graphics card like the nVidia geForce GT6xx series into the PCI slot. Don't know what kind of graphics card you have, but this unit is limited by its 300w power supply.

Hi Laura, We don't have anything proprietary on the machine so as long as the card and power supply fit in the chassis (and it should), you should be able to upgrade both easily :)

No you can't upgrade the graphics card. you can only install the same graphics mainly for replacements.
