Probably a proprietary unit. Yeah, it could be OK but it's a halfway decent Delta, but he's indeed much better off picking up a *insert SeaSonic Focus Gold X wattage here* if it's gonna work with his system (might not in case the Dell is not using an ATX 24-pin, for example).

450w would be fine, 550 would be better for upgrades down the line

Are you about to buy the 290W power supply, or is it a Dell PSU already included with your case?

Yes, its fine...

The System consumes around 200W at worst, I think. 290W should be plenty.

 

Remember that there isn't an option to use a Card with PCie Connector.

That you can't use a Card with either a 6 or 8pin PCIe Power Connector like the 1060 or RX470/570 (or x80).

Some graphics cards have an external power connector (6, or 8-pin) your PSU doesn't have this feature. It also can't be upgraded, as it's proprietary.

PC Specs - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D - MSI B550M Mortar - 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4-3600 @ CL16 - ASRock RX7800XT - 660p 1TBGB & Crucial P5 1TB - Fractal Define Mini C - CM V750v2 - Windows 11 Pro

So i cant get the GTX?

As most 1050ti come without an external power connector, you should be fine.

But you have to look if there is an external one and avoid those

If you have the 1050ti inside and you see that it is too slow and you aren't satisfied, you can't upgrade further until the lower end 7nm Chips are released sometime later next year.

 

Right now the 1050ti is the fastest card you can put into that system.

Yes, exactly. You need to make sure your chosen card doesn't have a power connector such as this one.
