Will this model work as a replacement for a Radeon HD5760 in a Dell Studio XPS 9100? Power supply is 525W, PCI-e x16 slot, 12GB memory, i7-930 processor(8MB L2 Cache,2.80GHz) Windows 7. I'm looking for a headache-free simple installation and would like...

This card should work fine for you and give you good performance. If there its no disk, I do recommend getting the most up to date driver direct from Nvidia. While your power supply does meet the requirements, I would recommend a future upgrade to at least 600w.

The instructions say that a 450W power supply is the minimum required. My power supply has 650W, so it's never been an issue. As for compatibility with the Dell motherboard, I would be quite surprised if that was an issue. It fits into a PCI slot, which seems pretty standard these days. It also requires supplementary power from a PCI-E connector, but an adaptor is included that allows you to get that power from standard MOLEX power connectors -- the kind used to power hard drives before SATA came along. By the way, I've been quite happy with this card!

I performed a serious search for the technical specifications for the AMD Radeon HD 7770 and could not find them on line. (AMD had taken down the original page with specifications, but they could be found in Google cache; there was no mention there of power requirements.) There is a wide range of opinions about the power requirements of the HD 7770. There is some chance that the power supply will do the job; it certainly worked well in my application with a new video card that required more power than came with the machine (The power supply had already been replaced once with a 500w supply, but had become damaged.) I agree with Michael S. Why take a chance. I believe I would go with 600W. I performed a serious search for the technical specifications for the AMD Radeon HD 7770 and could not find them on line.

Hi. I wouldn't try it with less than 500W. Obviously it doesn't consume that much, but if you're thinking of upgrading to this card, you probably have a couple hard drives, a higher-performance CPU and so on, and would need that much for other reasons. I had a 400W PS that was unable to power my system a few years ago, resulting in BSODs and random freezes, so I changed that out for my current 600W supply, which does just fine. I have an 8-core CPU, this video card, an SSD and four hard drives. I just had a look at EVGA's specsheet about this, and it says minimum 350W PS. I would imagine that is in a minimal system with nothing else hooked up. If you have any plans to upgrade anything in the future, being stuck with a tiny power supply will limit your options. I'd say start your search at 500W and if you find a good manufacturer of a more powerful one that's reasonably priced, get it.

You will have to contact Dell support, they are the only ones that know the specs on their products.

Sorry, but I just don't know. Maybe you could google that question or even call Dell and ask them :-D

The power supply in this unit is a 500W standard PSU. The GPU included is an onboard AMD graphics processor unit (built into the motherboard) and cannot be upgraded but instead replaced. The cost is the cost of the card you referenced, but the power supply is not powerful enough to cover the card. For that, you might want to take a look at our AAC-T7S, which has the same graphics card as the one you list (type, that is, not the exact one) and is built for all the specs in mind. As well, it also has an Intel i7 processor, which is leaps and bounds more powerful than the AMD 8 core included in this system. The AAC-T7S can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HTB0Y86/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00HTB0Y86&linkCode=as2

I would not worry about using this card with Dell's 220W power supply in a stock 660s system. The Radeon 6450 is rated to draw just 27W at peak load; this version which uses DDR3 and a passive cooler is likely to draw even less. Both the Geforce GT 620 (30W) and Radeon 7570 (>40W) are tested and supported by Dell for use in your machine, which you can confirm in your owner's manual.

Jeffrey,Look on your power supply tag, on inside of computer on motherboard side. It gives the G848G number, atleast it did on mine. And yes, I have had no problems installing and using the new one in my Dell 530.mike

I was going to say go to the Dell web site but I just looked, their entire presentation of this model is aimed at the layman and doesn't really say much. under slots it only lists memory, call Dell or maybe look inside to see if you have a pci-e slot.

Sorry, but is it a 645 or not? I need that video card supports more than one display at same time without inconvenience. So, I saw on dell and nvidia website that 645 is good for it.

Mine is in a Dell that had a 300w that went bad. I replaced with a 600w and have had no issues. When I did research before I bought the card, the suggestions that I read were a 400-500w psu

I have this installed on a dell studio, works okay but you should probably look for a higher watt power supply for your system. good luck

Best bet is to contact Dell with your question directly. The kind of upgrades you're talking about are run of the mill. Most people sooner or later upgrade video cards, storage & memory but of course you need the right slots. The Costco version of this PC shows both enough of the right kind of slots & a big enough power supply (460W).

yes...I received mine end of last week. Installed in Dell 1750 and has performed wonderfully. I did follow the installation instructions - i.e. run completely down & then charge back 100% after install.

Just looked up the Dell Optiplex 790, which has a number of configurations. Spec sheet is downloadable here: http://www.dell.com/learn/us/en/04/shared-content~data-sheets~en/documents~optiplex-790-customer-brochure.pdf As usual with prebuilt systems, every configuration that I ran through Newegg's power supply calculator was using every watt that its meager power supply put out. Don't add so much as a hard drive without replacing that PSU. The heftiest one your system can come with is 265W, many come with a 240W PSU (depending on if they put one of the 95W CPUs or the 65W in). Anything bronze rated or up at 300W+ should do the trick. The Radeon 6450 only adds about 10W of consumption... but that would push an Optiplex 790 into brownout territory. FYI: voltages in a PC setup are standardized, immaterial to power consumption. The voltages it uses are the voltages supplied by a PCIe slot. This card has no extra power supply input. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Power Also, for that ~$40 and 10W you don't get much. I bought one for my parents' home theater PC to stop a microstutter when playing 1080P 60FPS flash video, and I chose this card for its compatibility with their old Llano APU in a dual graphics setup... if you're buying it to play games, you might want to look a little further up the pricing ladder... unless you're just playing games from ~2009 or retro-styled indie stuff. This would be better than an onboard intel GPU, at least in terms of compatibility, but that's about all that can be said for it.

You can put a retail PSU in it rather than having to buy the Dell replacement. Mine has the 305W, but you can put in anything bigger, especially if you want to add a video card or plug in several USB powered devices.
