Thanks for showing this bro I was so confused when the optiplex on eBay didn’t look like the ones on KZfaq 😂

Your video helped me upgrade my Dell Optiplex 9010 SFF desktop so thank you very much!

Thanks for showing how to upgrade this model.

Just solidified my purchase. Thank you so much :)

Good video, just purchased one of these off eBay for my wifes new work at home call centre job. Wanted to see what inside the case looked like to see what I was working with. Now I know the correct size of SSD bracket I will need for this case. (screws line up) Kinda wish there was space to keep both SSD & HDD... I may be able to once I see it in person... Something crude... But... For the SSD thermals... Likely best I just forget about the HDD. I doubt she will need to use much storage on her job, so the 250gb Crucial MX500 should be plenty on it's own!

Thank you for the video. Everything you decided to do to that optiplex I ended up doing to mine. I now have a sff optiplex 9010 with an i7, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd, and for now I went with the gt 1030 but will be upgrading to the gtx 1050 ti. It is a fantastic computer, I have had zero issues with it. ery easy to upgrade for beginners.

I recently bought one of them optiplex 7010 am DEFINITELY doing this . Thanks for the vid man have left my like !!

Just got this in the mail but the picture showed the DT version. Thank GOD it's alteast the SFF and not the USFF I would not be able to upgrade. Awesome little computer about the size of a console. 👍😎

Great video - I couldn't figure out how to get the old bracket off (I'm from another century) THANKS!!

Big help. Thank you.

Just watching this video to check how to put it back together :P Thanks!

Love your video my good sir,, you help me alot with these Dell CPU,, but I handle with care.. LOL

how well is the thermal management?

Hello I have a 3010 sff, already upgrade to ssd with the original drive as a secondary and looking to add the 1050ti. Do you know if the 3010 supports 16gb of ram or is it capped at 8gb? Thanks!

I bought this computer for $80 bucks just a month ago. Looks easy to upgrade everything.

Is it possible to install 7010 SFF motherboard into a regular tower case? Also, I just noticed that unlike my other Optiplex (3020, 9010, 9020), 7010 PSU is using 20/24pin PSU to the motherboard.

Thank you so much for your informative videos on these! Now, I can see from this video that the graphics card has a long tab that fits into the PCIx16 slot on the motherboard. I have the SFF9020, where the graphics card will fit into the PCIx4 slot. Am I better off selling this and getting the 7010 for better utilisation of the graphics card please?

I was thinking of buying this pc i have a few questions i was thinking of getting a new case and swapping the parts over would u say thats a good move also i was wondering how many watts is the power supply bcz i dont know if i will need a new one or not

Informative & succinct. Thanks

can you provide the link for ssd caddy purchase?Thank you,

Cool! I just found a Dell Optiplex 3010. It isn't bad.

Can you change the case off a dell optiplex 990 or 790 ??? I hope you know a answer

So if I wanted to upgrade the HDD that's already in there, would I get a 2.5 inch or a 3.5 inch?

Is there a way to upgrade the case so that we can install a new PSU? Ive done all the things you did here already and I want to up it.

The original font support all the new itens? What is your power?

Did you cut the metel thing off of the geforce HTC 1080 ti

I wonder. Does the psu support? As mine if play game it shut down auto

Can I swap the motherboard in Optiplex 790SFF to the one from Optiplex 7010 SFF? I have an Intel i7 3770 that won't work with 790 as it's 3rd gen. I can get a cheap 7010 motherboard that would support it. I think the USB connectors may be a problem also as the layout is different on the front panel. Can't find an answer anywhere

Everything is upgradeable but take in mind biggest limit... the power supply ~ 240 watts max. I have one, is my main machine since 5 years, bellow ill list the upgrades that i did: Stock hardware: Core i5 3470 8 gigs of ram (2x4gb) 2 crappy not remember what ati pcie cards (tried to play with these, just impossible) 1tb hdd Todays hardware: Xeon E3-1270 v2 24 gigs of ram (added 2x8gb crucial modules) 1 gtx 750ti 2gb OC (planning to go to 1650ti since 1050ti has the same 75watts as tdp) 1 ssd samsung evo 1tb 1 hdd 2tb The biggest challenge was the cpu upgrade, looking at the Dell's upgrade paper, they say that the most powerfull cpu supported is Core i7 3770s, looked on online stores to it, so expensive. Reading here and there, found that the chipset is compatible with the xeon E3-12XX family, then googled to it. To my surprise there was people that flawlessly upgraded to some E3-1240 and 1235, at this point i wanted a Xeon too xD. Pushed the limits and a few bucks for a used 1270v2. The seller told me, that he was giving a lot of these to people that were looking for the 3770s since its low tdp vs 3770.- Crossed my fingers and tadaaa, running smooth since a year. ********////////// ADVICE ////////////********************////////// ADVICE ////////////********************////////// ADVICE ////////////********** If you plan to upgrade to XEON, you need an PCIE graphics card on place, its a server processor so the boundled Ivy Bridge graphics is not present on it. Hope this information helps, greets!

I have this exact computer. i deiced to put a GT 1030 in it with 4gb of ram and 1 hhd and 1 ssd runs amazing plays gta 5 and so much more. thanks man!

Thanks for the info. I'm working on one now, so this was very helpful.

@ Mxkdi is the video card is the maximum compatibility for the motherboard?

Hi, and the power supply will not be too weak in this configuration?

I have bougt the exact same pc but in the discrpition of the product stands that there is a videocart already in the pc a: intel hd graphics somthing like that. Do i need to get that one out first or just ignore it?

So you don't need to upgrade the power supply for a gaming graphics card? I just bought the 1050ti from MSI and I'm having trouble finding a PSU that would fit. The stock one is super long

Thanks so much for the vid! I appreciate the help. I upgraded the graphics card to a GT 710. Can't get an output signal from the upgrade or the onboard VGA. Not sure what's going on. Any suggestions? Thanks again.

Anyone know of a better gpu that can be put it into this that will actually fit and that a new power supply wouldn’t be needed?

Thanks for the perfect road map to a nice PC. Just picked up a 7010 with the i7 for $125 (old school unit). Did the SSD for the operating system ($59) ditching the DVD. Used my old 2TB HD from the computer it's replacing. Grabbed a GTX 1050ti ($169). Will do a ram upgrade later. Streams 4K like a dream (on 3 monitors at the same time). Every game I have runs like butter.. smooth. It makes a decent PC for under $400.

Can I upgrade to a bigger case with the components in this 7010 sff?

I just bought this with the i5-3470 with 8gb of ddr3 and I’m planning on getting a small form factor 1050ti or 1060 depending on my money situation next pay check I think I’ll need to upgrade the power supply tho

The dell optiplex series was MADE for these upgrades. It’s so easy to flip them for a profit because of how cheap you can find em on the second hand market since they’re in bulk (I got mine for free from my dads work). Chuck in a gpu, a lil more ram and an ssd and boom a good mid range pc for the price of a console.

is a low profile video card needed or can I use a normal bracket?

Thanks, this was really helpful :)

The gpu airflow is amazing

friend, a question, do you have problems with the power source ?, because according to me that source is 240 watts, and because the graphics card and all the improvements increase the amount of watts, and especially the graphic card I think it requires 300 watts

this computer was made for upgrades

Can I use a rx 460 in this with a pcie extender because the max power is 75 and the psu is 240

I have a question I have a dell optiplex 7010 x32 os x64 based processor. I want to upgrade to 64 bit but it won’t let me. What should I do?

Of the graphics cards compatible, which is the most powerful?

I love Dell Optiplexes

Is it still compatible with the original PSU? Or you also needs to upgrade PSU?? BTW I do have dell optiplex 7010.

hi man thx for this awesome video. I have a little question here, do you need a psu upgrade for a 1650 low profile?

Where do you get the small bracket at

I have a desktop with 180w power supply (ThinkPad M710e) Will the same graphics card work. Will be using apps like photoshop and corel draw. No gaming.

Would a Zotac GTX 1060 MINI fit in that PC?

Is the main board got 3.0 pcie slots?

Hi. I installed Gforce 1050 TI and after Gforce GT 730 but my monitor was dark, no signals came out. With the original chip I have signals but I couldn`t install the drivers. I updated the bios but no win. Any opinion?

Dear is it not possible two use the two gpu slots so we have two gpu installed?

Can I run steam VR after upgrade as mentioned? Thanks

Good camera, focus really fast,I guess gopro yes.

Thanks for the video! Very informative! These 7010's are cheap solid PCs that can be upgraded fairly easily. The specs say max ram is 4x4MB (16 total) but that is incorrect. I'm running 4x8gb in mine without issue on Window10 pro.

I know I’m late but anyways I bought mine from amazon and I have no idea how many watts the psu is and I don’t want to burn out my pc so how did you know your watts and what gpu to get I want to put a 1030 in but I don’t know yet

would an msi radeon rx 460 2gb work?

The PSU can handle the video card?

Hi so I have a small form factor exactly like yours and would like to upgrade the graphics card, but im not sure it will fit, im deciding wither to put XFX AMD Radeon RX 460 4GB GDDR5 or ZOTAC GeForce GT 730 Zone Edition 4GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16. Can you recommend a graphics card that will work with bf4 on high settings without having to spend $200 bucks as well as to change the power supply? Thanks

Can I got a normal 1050ti if I just change the bracket and make some space inside the PC?

What CPU is this Dell 7010? Can this machine fit a 4690k series?

Could please upload a video on changing the 7010 case to a new one? Like a case update?

Ram ddr3 16G but one side... Can be compatible with this desktop?

Will my asus gtx 750ti OC(with 2 fan) fit into the 16X pcie slot since mine gtx 750ti is quite longer in length.

Hi, i have the same pc and i searched the whole internet but i can't find the answer, will the GT 1030 Silent Low Profile 2G fit in the case (btw it's the one with the light grey heatsinks, if you could answer that would mean the world to me and thank you !

Will the MSI RADEON RX 550 lp work

what temps does the gpu get

Can a dell optiplex 7010 mt work with a zotac gt 1030 gddr5

thank you so much

Would a zotac 1050 ti mini fit in here? Not really sure what the difference between low profile and mini is

Hi, been following and watching your videos now since I just bought a dell optiplex 7010. Just one newbie question, how to I install the SSD and also install the OS on it (windows 10). If you reply! Great. Or links would be much appreciated. Total newbie

hey dude, where'd you get that power supply from? mine's an original but it has no 80+ certification at all and it already is damn expensive. the first one blew up, and so is the second psu, and now i worry i'd get the same result the next time i purchase these. having an 80+ certification would ease my insecurity.

Hi, I have a question I have the same device with video clip only Dell Optiplex 990 sff/ core i7 ..can I add gtx 1050 ti

What was your solution for wifi connectivity with the GPU taking up to PCIe slots and no PCIe x1 slots installed on this unit?

Will the PC run well on modern games if i just add a better graphics card?

Any way to upgrade the PSU in order to upgrade to a 1060 or higher? Or this area the Max GPUS you can install on the 7010? What able the 7020?

How many WATTS of Power supply Recommended in this Above Build.

Please help. I got this card but have no output to my monitor. The PC aint reading the card and the nvidia drivers as well. How do i get it to output video. I am using a dell optiplex 7010 sff that came with an AMD 6450hd in it. Any help would be much appreciated.

dude! you didn't leave a link in the description of where to get these things!

If i install a 1650 will it need a new power supply

GoooD :)

Qué tarjeta de video recomienda (por tamano) para juegos que se adapte a este PC?

Anybody find a chipset cooler for these yet? The spacing is 45mm for the peg holes on mine.

I have the same 240W PSU but the all graphics card requires 300W PSU still should I buy and install graphics card from the above list you mentioned?

Can upgrade fan coolant?

Wich Ram did you use?

my videocard has 6pin molex and 7010 sff doesn't have a connector through it. Can I ignore the 6pin molex?

hi would it be possible to have HDD and SSD by ditching the dvd drive?

mxkdi ... may you give me about some graphic cards models ( can run over psu 240 watt l as low profile ?

Great video thanks. Just at got a 7010 (16 GB ram i7 3770 CPU 120 GB SSD... I just added an extra 240 GB hard drive from an old laptop). Got the system for £219 (about 240 us dollars) I'm looking to add a Gt1030 GPU as I'm not sure about the power draw from a 1050ti (or even a 750 ti). My PSU is only 240wats and don't want to push the PSU to far. This is to make a second video rig for lite video editing for work. My home pc is my main editing/gaming rig. Is the 1030 a good option because of PSU? Anyone??

I thinking of getting one of those

thanks for the video, really good. I would have replaced the battery at the same time ;-)

What Cpu are you running? I have the 3770 at 77 watts. With the GTX 1650 install anything graphic heavy it locks up.
