Hi,

Recently purchased an optiplex 9010 and want to get graphics card upgrade for obvious reason but don’t have the Budget to upgrade psu as well so what’s the best Gpu within 240 W?

A GTX 1050 Ti or GTX 1650 that only gets power from the PCI-e slot.

 

Is it a Optiplex 9010 MT, SFF or USF?

Assuming you can find one for a decent price, a 1050Ti or a 1650 non-Super. And given that you specified 240w, I can only assume its one of the SFF models which means you're stuck with half-height cards which have unfortunately always commanded a retarded premium over their normal-sized counterparts. Just avoid the shitty single fan models like Gigabyte made and you're golden.

I’m gonna buy a new case so space isn’t an issue but it is SFF

Size isn’t too big of an issue as I’ve already made preparations to transplant components to a nice rgb case
