depends on what you want to play
what kind of games would this play on a respectable framerate? even if the settings would be low
Card was cheap, but you are probably not a gaymer. It will do the job. You are still a fag though because you didn't pick AMD for open source linux drivers.
>not looking at this information pre-purchase
It just doesn't matter. That's all he can run with that shitty power supply that he has in that shitbox. Also pray that Dell doesn't have any restrictions in the BIOS.
i dont like amd or linux sorry
You bought a glorified HEVC decoder, modern AAA games are going to be shit (Free-to-play stuff would be decent) but at least you can enjoy some 8k 60hz HDR movies with no problem
Winfag
yup
It's basically a GTX 750, he'll be fine on low-medium 1080p.
Why don't you tell us what you will use the card for?
what are the specs of the optiplex even?
gaming and htpc
Specifically mine has a core 2 quad 6700 8gb of ram and the gt 1030 with an ssd
With that you will be doing only some light gaming only.
you could prob do a xeon mod if youre into that kind of stuff. get yourself a 3Ghz xeon cpu
is it as light as a feather gaming or just light light
it is basically a 750ti, just overclock it. Will run games on 1080p, low/medium settings.
source games
a 750ti is significantly faster
how much faster

>GT 1030 is 70-90 bucks on Newegg
>GTX 1050 was 100 when I bought it last year
Holy shit, glad I'm not in the market for a GPU anytime soon.
ill just overclock it then
you should be fine
>shitty old power supply
>power exclusively from PCIE
not really worried
Light light.
Anything Source will work fine, modern games besides eSports titles not so much.
Managed to play Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3, Red Orchestra 2 at medium near 60 FPS at 1080p, which was about the same as my previously owned 750 Ti.
You'll just have to try things out as you go along, but don't expect higher settings than low or medium at best.
t. user who owned a Q6600 @ 3 Ghz, 8GB GT 1030.
You're showing off literal garbage. Why are you even showing anybody this embarrassment. Also saged.
unsaged
Listen, and listen well, you little piece of shit and everyone else who does this, this isn't a tech related rant, or even an anti-game rant.
The word 'game' is a substantive, you will IMMEDIATELY stop using it as a verb, go back to elementary school before posting on the internet, have I made myself clear you analphabet spoiled faggot?
>playing video games
This is how you use the word game on a setence, you got it right once, maybe there is still hope for you, please stop embarrassing yourself an start auto-correcting your posts.
Thank you and happy new year!
I just bought a used GTX 660 for 30 bucks. The Chinese man I bought it from assures me it is working perfectly.
Shoulda gotten a 1050 nonti 2GB. I can run basically everything with textures/particles at a lower setting on 768p
what motherbard did you use to overclock your q6600?
I had a Optiplex 330 and several other Socket 775 PCs that I was fiddling around with including a few Fujitsu Siemens PCs, but the OC method I used was the BSEL method which worked on all of them, very easy to apply, all you need is electric tape and tape it over two contact points on the CPU.
See: youtu.be
You're fucking retarded.
literally me
Did you get it to play Blu Ray UHD? Because not counting its video decoding capabilities, it's shit for everything else.
It doesn't even have encoding capabilities (1050 min for that), so forget about streaming.
