Hi There,
I know this has been asked a bunch of times including by me previously.
I've been successfully running my NVidia 750ti 2GB for the last year or so but this is still the bottleneck in my pc's graphics capabilities.
I've emailed ATXPowerSupplies.com and they have come back to me with this link:
https://www.atxpowersupplies.com/power-supply-cross-reference-3.php?manufacturer=Dell&make=OptiPlex&model=7010
Has anyone successfully installed any of these in their unit?
I'm really happy with my CPU and am reluctant to spend more money at this stage so was thinking of trying the SPI300F4BB-UTFX, which if compatible will allow me to jump to the 1050ti.
Thanks in advance

I agree with the above. Dell PSUs are sized to power all the slots and bays the computer comes with. They are quality parts. The Optiplex series has a 95W CPU limit, and the DT size doesn't have a lot of expansion slots/bays. Dell also doesn't sell PSUs by the Watt, a lower rating actually looks more efficient in their market. So what seems like a small PSU is actually all you need.

The current psu should handle a 1050ti (as long as you don't get one with an 6pin connector) just fine.

Thanks both for this. I've ordered the 1050ti. If it doesn't blow up I'll select my favourite answer :D

Thanks both for you answer.
I've got it in there and it works great.
It's actually turned my pretty old PC into a reasonable gaming machine.
Will be able to do some pretty large GIS stuff on there too.
