Will this prebuilt Dell hold a gpu

[Swfcris]

I was looking on eBay for an inexpensive pre built to put my MSI rx 460 2gb oc in and found this Dell Inspiron 3650 (i5 6400, 8gb ddr3) but I can't tell if it'll actually hold a graphics card. Or if I should get this Acer system I found

In theory they should, but if you have a more powerful GPU you'll need a different PSU in either.

That Dell looks like it has a proprietary PSU (or something), so I'd say don't touch it.

Those prebuilts are most likely running 350W-ish PSUs that would get fully loaded if you add a decent GPU to it.

As for the Acer, I'm not sure.

 

 

Theoretically if there's a PCI-e slot, it'll hold a GPU, as long as the PSU can handle it.

To be save what ever build you go for change the power supply if your going to but in a gpu.

if he's lucky, tried putting a decent card in a Lenovo OEM machine once only to realise the PSU has no PCIe connectors, and MOBO uses that nasty 14-pin ATX connector

Only consider prebuilts with standard atx layouts , stop looking at anything with proprietary form factors there's no reason to.

I'd be scared with that power supply. that already has an i5 which will pull a good bit of power but technically speaking it should work.. SHOULD. stay away from pre built dells if you can though. they are not made to be upgraded.. they can be yes, and I have done it myself but the power supply in those are made specifically to run that hardware

You could probably put in a 750Ti or 1050Ti in it, as long as it doesn't need any additional power connectors.

Dell OptiPlex machines are far more upgradeable.

Regardless poopy psu. I agree they are upgradeable in terms of Ram, hard drives and what not but I don't see the point in upgrading the CPU in those (In this day and age). Would be better imo to just get a new system all together.

The Rx 460 I have is a 75w card. How's that compared to a 750/1050ti?

It should be able to draw all the power it needs from the pcie slot, just make sure it doesn't have any supplemental power connectors. In terms of performance, it is similar to the 750Ti.
