Posted November 20, 2020 I recently purchased a Dell Optiplex 9010 SFF off of facebook marketplace. I was planning to put a gtx 1050 Ti low-profile in it and do some light gaming. I failed to realize however that it only has a 240w PSU which means it can't supply enough power to the 75w gtx 1050 Ti. Is there a 300w+ PSU that I could get to put in this PC?

Posted November 20, 2020 You can just buy a cheap ATX case and a decent 400w+ power supply. I doubt there's going to be anything compatible with that.

Posted November 20, 2020 Author I thought about doing that but all the front panel connectors, audio, USB, etc. are proprietary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the power button pins are next to eachother you'll be able to use a standard one. edit: oh weird they are very proprietary PC Specs AMD Ryzen 7 3800X | MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus | 16GB Team T-Force 3400MHz | Zotac GTX 1080 AMP EXTREME BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4 | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | NZXT 750W | Phanteks Eclipse P400A Extras: ASUS Zephyrus G14 (2021) | OnePlus 7 Pro | Fully restored Robosapien V2, Omnibot 2000, Omnibot 5402 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 20, 2020 Actually I can verify that it will work just fine with the 240w stock PSU, I have a Optiplex with a i7 3770 at work and been running a low profile MSI 1050 Ti for a couple years now.

Think it's the same model but not at work right now, gray front panel with 4x USB next to the audio jacks under the slim ODD. But basically the SFF with a i7 3770 and a 240 watt PSU. The 1050 Ti is only powered by the PCI-e slot and it's a 90 watt CPU so the whole system only draws around 200 watts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
