Hi, I am looking for a half-decent low-profile graphics card to use with my Dell Optiplex 990, and the Sapphire Radeon HD 7750 seems to check out nicely, but I do not know of it will fit in my system. Those that have an Optiplex 990 SFF will know that the space inside is very small and cramped, but I'm hoping that the graphics card will fit inside it. So, for anybody that has an Optiplex 990 SFF and/or a Sapphire 7750, will it fit inside the case? Thank you!

That card won't fit if your PC is the SFF. That is a full height card. It would have to be like this one.
The 55W card would probably be OK, more than the PSU is rated for. But My 240W was fine with my 60W (TDP) GTX 1050 Ti.

It will depend on which 7750 exactly. If it is too long, no. But most 7750 demand too many watts for the tiny PSU you have. Which one are you interested in exactly? Your PSU is the standard Dell 240W isn't it?

And there are better cards that do fit and are faster than the old 7750. The GTX 750 Ti for instance. I even had a GTX 1050 Ti in my Optiplex 790 SFF (identical to your newer 990).

The card I'm contemplating buying can be seen here: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102969

And yes, I do have the standard 240W PSU, and I am aware that this card uses 55W (or at least I've heard). Will 240W be enough? And the GTX cards may be faster, but I'm very short on money at the moment and I have found a great deal on the 7750, so I hope you understand why spending the extra cash on a GTX feels undesirable.

Ah, I see. I guess I'll wait for now and save up for a GTX card. And when you talk about the 1050 Ti, you mean something like this one, right?

Exactly, yes. This is the one I had.

If money is tight, you could always drop back to the GT 1030.

It is still faster than the older HD-7750.
