Old Optiplex BIOSes are known to hate modern graphics card. It used to be the AMD R9s and RX-470/480 cards, and apparently they've lost patience with NVIDIA now, too. The safest bet for a typical Sandy/Ivy Gamerplex conversion is an NVIDIA card, Pascal or earlier. Anything newer could be hit or miss.

@ZackSNetwork 2 жыл бұрын

It doesn’t make sense to pair modern GPU’s with those old Optiplex’s anyway though. Not just compatibility but, bottlenecking the GPU performance. I say 2060 super up to the upcoming 40 series makes no sense.

@BobHenderson-dr2wy 7 ай бұрын

I don't know why this popped up on my feed 1 year later, LOL! I could save you the trouble, the Optiplex and Inspiron BIOS have a lock on the power draw from the PCIE slot. If it draws more than X amount of power it trips the TDP limit and goes into shutdown or boot loops where the lights come on and it just turns back off... It is a "feature" designed to not allow you to upgrade your Dell desktops "for your own safety" (quoted from a Dell employee in the forums). But you can always buy a new model! LOL! I think that is the point right? Can we all agree it's a really horrible practice? The newer models no longer have the TDP limit in them, but getting definitive list of which models are affected and which are not is going to be difficult at best.

Hi Danny. I bought a RTX 2060 to slap in an Optiplex 7010 and I had the same problem you had. I spent 12 hours adjusting bios settings from legacy to secure boot etc, but I couldn't get it working. The GPU worked in my other PCs including my Optiplex 3020. I tried installing 2 GPUs at the same time, I tried everything. Then I traded out the PSU with an older model that I had and boom. It booted up. The only difference between the 2 power supplies is the old PSU's 6+2 PCIe connector has actual 8 wires that go back to the PSU compared to the new CX600 PSU that has 6 wires and have jumpered the 2 grounds over to the +2 connector. I wonder if this jumper is not compatible with the PCI 2.0 slot??? Because that is the only difference and it now works. Maybe it is just a coincidence, but I am stoked that it finally worked for me, maybe it give it a try.

I think it's possible that in some dell pc's, even if the mobo offers iGPU capability, it may be hard-locked by Dell b/c they included a discrete GPU. I think I've encountered this scenario on some business PC's after I tried removing their GPU to put in other PC's, it was quite a few years back though and going off memory. I don't think I was able to find a Bios/uefi setting that allowed them to work w/o a dGPU.

@linuxlover_8436 2 жыл бұрын

@@heyitsdazy I don't have any experience w/newer pre-builts, except an HP my father purchased about a year ago. The older pre-builts I dealt with never included a list of compatible gpu's. If they include this now, that is a very good change imho. Even though I prefer AMD, it seemed like those older PC's I dealt with were generally more friendly to Nvidia GPU's, but I realize now that it was probably a card by card basis depending on its architecture. I think if one is going to upgrade an older pc, it would be best to see if anyone on a forum or YT video successfully paired the card they are considering w/their motherboard before ordering to minimize the frustration. The only thing I know of the 6500XT is that if video editing or live streaming are important, you wanna stay away from it. If you only plan to game, then it will do ok there. Most would choose a 3050 over it I'm sure for those reasons alone as most probably want to at least live stream or plan on getting into content creation/video editing.

Were both your sandy bridge systems using xeon processors? It might be a solution to try, as those boards "technically" weren't meant to house xeon CPUs as those were intended to be enterprise chips. Maybe there's something missing in the microcode that doesn't allow the xeons to initiate the GPU? Personally, I'd try with it an i5 2400 just to make sure that wasn't the issue.

I always wanted to get an optiplex pc, since here in Greenland, trying to build my own pc is not easy as just order parts and done with it. Many online retailers don't send to Greenland, and we don't have Microcenter or other huge stores about pc-parts in the country. Ordering from online, shipping cost always around $60-75, and could take up to 2-4 weeks to arrive, if we're lucky with weather.

Few suggestions, first update the BIOS on those Dell motherboards to the most recent version available, which appears to be version A24 from 2018. Under Important Info on the BIOS page it shows that multiple sequential updates may be needed for versions prior to A10 and A4. Settings related to UEFI/legacy boot mode and CSM can have an impact here, but note this can also cause windows not to boot depending which mode it was installed under. The other thing to try is to remove the "Dell factor" from this completely, pull the 2nd gen CPU and ram and find a used 60 series board (such as Z68) to drop them in and test with (update to latest bios here too). Last thing to note going forward is that Ivy Bridge (3570K/3770K) is the first gen to support PCI-E 3.0 (with a 70 series board such as Z77). Best to stick to that or Haswell (4670K/4770K) or Devils Canyon (4690K/4790K) going forward for the DDR3 stuff.

@AznMikey 2 жыл бұрын

The point of the Video was to 'Upgrade' a Dell Pc. If he removed the Motherboard for another one, it would defeat the purpose. The other reason is so that other people that are trying to upgrade a Dell will know that a Rtx 3050 didn't work in this situation... Like he said, most ppl won't have extra hardware to swap and see what is the problem. I understand that he asked for solutions as well but I'm pretty sure he meant a way for the RTX 3050 to work with the Dell. (Motherboard and Processor) Edit: Like he said, It's most likely the Pcie lane being 2.0. Although it's weird that the 3060ti worked.

I bought a used Optiplex 7050 with I7-7700 to replace my old 7010 primarily because it had a PCIe 4 slot on the motherboard. We bought an RTX3060 to upgrade my sons computer from a GTX 1070 and plugged the GTX 1070 into the Opt 7050 motherboard - same problem you are having - no boot. So we put my son's RTX 3060 into it and same problem. I then pulled a GTX 550 from my other son's really old computer and it worked like a champ. I then pulled the GTX 1050 from my 7010 computer and it works great also. I checked and the Opt. 7050 has the latest BIOS update and even with a PCIe 4 slot, it won't work with "newer" (the GTX 1070 is 6 years old) GPUs. Go figure.

Interesting... perhaps I'll have to test the 3050 in my 3020 as well. It's working fine in my 9020 test bench. But I don't think PCIe Gen2 is your problem. The 3020 is also PCIe Gen2 like the x90 series, as is the 3010. The H61 and H81 chipsets are both limited to PCIe Gen2. Were you running the 990 in UEFI mode? I know that can cause problems with some newer GPU's refusing to run in legacy mode. And if you are, the UEFI implementation in those systems is rather buggy. I'm kinda' leaning towards a UEFI issue here, but no matter, you should be able to run the tests you want with the 3020 since it's Gen2. You can check in GPU-Z, but it should be running at Gen2x16. Wish I had an 790/990 to test the 3050 in now.

At the time, I got a feeling via various forum thread comments that it had to do w/the bios/uefi of the motherboard(s) were incompatible w/the gpu's bios, and that in general, Nvidias were more compatible than AMD cards when it came to likelihood a gpu might work in an older Dell pre-built. Another commenter here I believe seemed to think it might be CSM missing from a motherboard bios. I think it's just an OEM mobo issue. I've been able to add the R9 270 to a Gigabyte X38 that is older than most of the Dell pre-builts that I have.

Have you checked what southbridge chip the two MBs are using? It might be a compatibility issue on the PCIe 2.0 MB.

Just got my son an optiplex 3020 mini tower with an i5 4590, 8gb ram and a 250gb SSD for £60. I swapped the PSU for an old 600w one I had, bought a 24 to 8 pin adaptor and added an old GTX 1060 I had. Runs really well for what he needs - Fortnite 😊

Would you look at that a new card is not compatible with a 10 year old Dell system. It has to be some kind of bios issue for sure just not liking the 3050. Or maybe its just that 3050 it may work with another since the 3060 Ti worked.

Hey there. I'm totally stumped, thought you might be able to help me. I my recently bought Dell OptiPlex 9010 i7 Quad Core 3770 3.9 GHZ. I bought a Gigabyte GeForce Nvidia GV-N970G1 4gb "Windforce" card. I also bought a 600 watt power supply to upgrade the needed power. When trying to install the drivers - I get an error saying that the drivers could not find "compatible hardware". The card lights up, fans are spinning - but the system does not see the card. It's not showing up in Device Manager - I don't know what to think or do. Have you encountered anything like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

@ikeaframe1772 Жыл бұрын

Hey Nerd on a Budget, i found a solution to your problem since i had the same issue. You need a fresh WIN 10 install (on the UEFI Mode/if available). After that you have to boot the Optiplex over the onboard graphics into WIN 10, then go into the windows device manager and disable the intel hd graphics (or something like that) then it should boot up properly wuith the RTX 3050 after you plugged it in. Some Dell Optiplex models have a bios restriction that block gpus with a high current and automatically switches the output to the onboard intel graphics.- I hope this fix doesn't come to late for you since the vid is already a year old. PS: You have to use the A22 revision(or newer) of the bios since this one's the only bios version that allows this.

Another, non-dell, motherboard with the same chipset supporting Sandy Bridge. I could just be the cheap motherboard Dell is using. I don't know what chipset the board uses in that particular Dell, but if it's, say P68, the trying an "off the shelf" non-OEM P68 motherboard. Or perhaps it's the chipset itself. I expect it's the Dell OEM version of the motherboard.

Just a suggestion, check to see if onboard graphics is working with the RTX 3050 plugged in. If it is, try disabling the onboard graphics in the bios. I am waiting for delivery of an Optiplex 390 with onboard graphics only that I hope to use a GTX card with and I may have to disable onboard graphics in it to get the nVidea card to work.
