Some dell desktops use a proprietary power supplies which are not designed to be replaced. In theory you could get a GTX1050 which would not need a pci power connector but i think your power supply would not be able to support it.

They need to know your geographical location to provide the best recommendation.

Since you've got a really low power PSU, your best bet is probably going to be a GT 1030 or something else low power.

RX 550 or GT 1030 if you want to play it safe on power. 

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Your title says 3874, and your link says 3847. Which is it, and what case form factor is it? If it is a 3847, an ATX power supply will fit and work.

As long as its a mini tower you can fit a an ATX PSU and 9" GPU in it. Folks have ran 900 series GeForce cards so compatibility wouldn't be an issue.

If you relocate the HDD and remove the HDD cage you can fit any card you like.
