After testing the Quadro K620 in a strange gaming PC from eBay we decided to see how it performs inside a trusty Optiplex. The K620 Quadro performs similar to the GT1030 but for about half the price. Let's make a budget rig and test it in games!

My father works as an IT manager at his company. They just recycle the old pcs. He informed me that they had some desktops they are getting rid of. I was it was going to be an older OptiPlex and I wanted to try to put together a little gaming/emulation machine. He gives me one. It's a 9th gen Intel 9700 OptiPlex sff from 2019. I threw a RX 6400 in there, The slightly higher wattage power supply and a 1tb SSD. works like a champ. Best thing is the operating system is on a 256gb NVME drive. So, it's actually pretty damn fast. Doesn't beat out my Custom-built pc but is definitely faster than most cheap OptiPlex builds. I think I spent a total of $200 on it. maybe a little less. I did add an 80mm fan to the front, and recently upgraded the CPU fan. That was a pain in the ass that involved cutting screws down. Not bad though for something that I got for free.

The quadro k620 is essentially the 'pro' version of the OEM GTX 745. It has a DP rather than a HDMI on the 745. K620 has 2gb and the 745 can have 2gb or 4gb. But the 745 can't use all the 4gb as the card is on the light side.

I've had one of these sitting in the corner since probably last year. I finally cracked it open last night. I had to remove the password jumper to clear out the admin password so that I could make changes in the bios. 16GB of RAM. I added in a 1TB M.2 drive. It has some kind or Radeon card but I can't tell what it is. I ordered another 16GB of RAM today. It's only TPM 1.2 so I don't think it's handle Win 11. Since my video card has DVI and Displayport, I plugged the HDMI cable into the mobo port and it works fine. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. Maybe take it to work to replace the old HP Compaq that's on the desk.
