DELL OPTIPLEX 7040 GPU UPGRADE (4K)

Upgrade the stock GTX 750ti with GTX 1050ti!
No PCIX power plug required!

The GTX 1050 Ti 4GB is Nvidia’s latest Pascal based GPU. The 1050 Ti has a TDP of 75 Watts and is based on a new 14nm GP107 processing core which has approximately 66% of the key resources (CUDA cores, texture units, memory bandwidth and transistor count etc.) found on the 3GB GTX 1060. Comparing userbenchmarks for the 1050 Ti and 3GB 1060 shows that the 1050 Ti is falling a little short of our expectations but we only have one benchmark for the 1050 Ti so the average score will probably improve as we gather more samples. The list price for the 1050 Ti is $139 which is between AMDs $185 RX 470 and $100 RX 460. Comparing performance between the RX 470 vs GTX 1050 Ti and RX 460 vs GTX 1050 Ti shows that the 1050 Ti sits roughly in the middle for both price and performance.

Love the video had a serious inquiry I’m a noob to pc’s… ​Quick question, with the 7040 sff, or any pc with integrated intel hd graphics. when installing a dedicated gpu do u have to go into bios and enable the pci express card slot, did you just plug n and dl the drivers?

Oh gee, the big fat 240 watt PC has enough power for a full on 75 watt GPU. But can you tell us what we can push out of our 180w small form factors? I have a GT 710 2GB GDDR5 19 watts, (GDDR5 version draws less power than DDR3 so it's not 25w) I'm wondering what upgrade paths there are available. And before you all go "GET THE GT 1030!" I want to hear from those with alternate options. 2025 update ok so I tried the RX 6400 and it worked. I also built a Mini ITX with a 160w Nano PSU with 2600e+RX 6400 combo at 157w at worst.

[JammerJay]

I have the exact same set up; Dell 7040 MT & T050ti gfx card. I can't get the gfx card to work properly.

[chinook]

Any chance you tested running 3 monitors with this GPU with on 7040 MT with a 240W power supply? Not needing it for gaming, but more for desktop apps like adobe. This would be perfect if it worked!

[entertainerentertainer]

[Alassanethiawlaye]
