GTX 1050Ti - will it work?

penguin8967

I've got a Dell prebuilt (Optiplex 3070) with an i5-9500 and 16GB RAM, and I'm wondering if it will support a GTX 1050Ti, as I know they are the best card that doesn't need additional power and can survive off of the PCIe slot.

 

The PSU in the system is 260W. Do you think it would be able to run?

Intel i5-9500, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, 1x 120mm Fan.

 

Upgrading soon to an ITX GTX 1650 (4GB).

The 1050TI should run fine. But if you can spend a little extra, the 1650 is a much better card. And costs around £150/€180 for a small card on amazon.

Does the 1650 need extra power? The PSU included doesn't have any extra connectors, and I'm not really wild about changing the PSU either

No, it doesn't need extra power. That's why i suggested it.
