Hello, would you recommend this video card for my Dell Optiplex 7010???? I will be purchasing EVGA 500W 80PLUS Certified ATX12V/EPS12V PSU with it....

I'm using it with a PSU TT Tr2 600W 80 PLUS and it works great. totally recommended

Yes...very good graphics card...I do a lot of CAD and it works fine. If the EVGA 500w is a power supply, I would bump up to more like 750, no, I'd make it a 1000W.

Most Dell OptiPlex machines use proprietary power supply's. I would check with the manufacture on compatibility. For the small form factor OptiPlex 620 desktops this won't work.

Dear friend, I strongly recommend at least 300-350 watts per video card. So just for the cards you would need 900-1050 watts. You still need some more power to the rest of the system. Get that 1600 psu ASAP...

Mine is in a Dell that had a 300w that went bad. I replaced with a 600w and have had no issues. When I did research before I bought the card, the suggestions that I read were a 400-500w psu

The one I had lasted 3 years running almost constantly. My video card went bad and took it with it. I upgraded to an 800 Watt Thermaltake model when I replaced the video card. You didn't mention what else you are running like additional hard drives or DVD / CD drives. It's a good, dependable power supply, so it may be all you need. Personally, I would go a little bigger.

Mine runs a Radeon 7970 6gb and this card on a 650w gold certified psu without issue. Can't speak to running it solo, though.

First, the deceptively simple answer: Yes, it "should" work. Second, for less, and roughly the same: "http://www.amazon.com/SILENT-EAH5450-DI-1GD3-LP/dp/B004VRRN4E/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER". Thirdly, as mentioned by someone else, make sure you have a free slot :) Fourthly, both versions have additional brackets for full height and half-height type cases. Lastly, for your reference, so you can shop for better price to performance cards, the not so simple answer/explanation. I have mostly used this card in the older legacy Dell Dimensions (eg. 3100, 4700) that have only 1 PCI-E x1 slot. I am not that familair with the Optiplex 760. However, http://www.dell.com/us/dfb/p/optiplex-760/pd, under "Tech Specs" lists it as having an "PCI-e x16" slot. You can get a much better price to value on a slot x16 than a slot x1 type card. The ATI Radeon HD5450 chipset comes on both slot x1 and x16. Currently, slot x16 video cards tend to run cheaper for the same performance than slot x1. Oh, and your Optiplex is PCI-E v2.0 - so 2.1 should also work. So if you decide on another card, just make sure its v2.1 or v2.0 for best compatibility. Moreover, the PCI-E x16 slot is downward compatible meaning you can plug in x1, x4, and x16 PCI-E cards. Please see "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#PCI_Express_4.0" if you wish to further research this.

I have this card installed in a few Dell OptiPlex computers. Works Great. DDR3 refers to the memory on the video card not the computer.You should have no problems.

The instructions say that a 450W power supply is the minimum required. My power supply has 650W, so it's never been an issue. As for compatibility with the Dell motherboard, I would be quite surprised if that was an issue. It fits into a PCI slot, which seems pretty standard these days. It also requires supplementary power from a PCI-E connector, but an adaptor is included that allows you to get that power from standard MOLEX power connectors -- the kind used to power hard drives before SATA came along. By the way, I've been quite happy with this card!

At the minimum I would use a 650 watt PSW. I currently have a Corsair 750TX and it is perfect for the job. It also needs to be stressed this video card requires two power inputs a 6 pin connector, and an 8 pin. Newer PSW come equipped with the proper connectors. Sorry it took me a couple of days to respond....a truly great card though you will love it.

I installed mine on a Dell OptiPlex 740. Not sure what the difference is, but I would imagine it would fit yours as long as there wasn't something already in the card slot.

Hi, in theory, yes. I searched the internet for details about the model you have, to find out there are several types of that model(standard and slim models: http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_755_techspecs.pdf). If your model is a slim one, there may be some issues mounting a video card with a standard bracket(that's about 10-12 cm long) but would accept smaller brackets(4-5 cm). Some video cards come with a small bracket too, so before purchasing, I would make sure the card has one too(or look for a card that is "small form factor"). In addition, based on the manual from the above link, it looks like all models are able to handle PCI express cards, so from this point of view, you'd be good to go.

Hey Ken, The 860w will work great. You can get away with a 650w or better if you choose. (running one card)

I installed this card on couple Dell OptiPlex 3020 SFF PCs without any issues. It's a decent card to support dual LCDs Panel w/Display Port.

It would really depend on everything else in your system. If everything else pulls to much power, and there isn't enough for the video card, it will not preform as well and your power supply will wear out very quickly. I know from experience that too small of a power supply will burn out and need to be replaced. I would recommend at least a 500w.

The Optiplex 760 maxes out at 8 Gig Supported RAM. This is not much of an issue if you have a hot vid card though (for games etc). The GeForce Super SC and Sapphire should run fine just remember to upgrade your power supply and upgrade any part of the BIOS or drivers necessary to operate the card. I don't think I'd want to go much below 600 Watts. Remember the Dell is already a multi processor beast and needs pretty much all of the 400 Watt standard. The new vid card will want a bunch for itself too. Adding hot vid cards and additional drives requires cooling considerations as well. You may want to think about an extractor fan unit.

While it may work for some time I don't recommend using this video card with less the 400W power supply. Best, Martin
