Can this be used in a DELL Optiplex 745 (the 2X2 model) ? In additon, what power supply would I need to power it?

If there is an available slot available, it should work. It's also powered from the slot on the mother board.

I had to bump up my power supply to a 750, it was a 450w, but you should have no issues. fyi, it consumes 4 power connectors, so you may need adapters if you dont have 4 available.

I'm not sure what the minimum power supply is , but i put it in a 12 year old Dell 4400 that can't have a very powerful power supply if that helps.

I installed the video card into a Dell Inpsiron 560 which only has a 300W power supply and I have been viewing two displays since beginning of September 2014 with no issues. This video card was an upgrade recommendation per my service tag number on the Dell website which helped me decide compatibility with my computer. I also used two Monoprice (4826) DP (DisplayPort) Male to HDMI® Female Adapter to convert the video card output to HDMI for my monitors. No external power was needed to support the Monoprice adapters.

The 745 will take up to a 550w power supply. Check the logisys with the specs at http://www.911forpcs.com/optiplex-745.html.

This EVGA GT 610 has a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 connector. If I remember correctly, your Optiplex 745 has one PCI-Express x16 slot, so this video card should work for you. NOTE: you can only hook up one DVI-D monitor (Dual link, which supports Dell's 30" monitor in the max resolution). The other DVI port can only go up to 1080P.

Nancy, according to the Dell website this model optiplex 745 is already equipped with the Core 2 Duo but hard to tell which series- Possible upgrade to that would be the core 2 Quad.

As a 2.5" HDD I cannot imagine how it couldn't. While I have not looked up the specs for the Dell Optiplex 745, I can safely attest to the fact that if this HDD doesn't, then no standard drive would.

It looks like the Optiplex 745 motherboard uses DDR2 ram, the likes of which DDR3 is not compatible. So no, this ram will not work in your computer, you need DDR2 ram.

That should work fine, as long as you don't have too many other things drawing power from the power supply. I believe the recommendation is for a 750, but that assumes you might have multiple drives, etc.

Sorry the power supply is installed in one of my customer's Dell computer. I believe it is a standard typereplacement for the smaller form factor Dells and probably some others as well.

I used it in a Dell Optiplex 455 SFF - if your system is anything like what I have, you should have no problems - hope this helps..

I don't have experience with the Dell Optiplex 755. Manual for this PC has table of the compatible ram.

No, you need a 533MHz DDR2 with a max of 2GB per slot. http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_745techspecs.pdf

I placed the information you gave me in a power supply calculator. I didn't have all the info on your pc so I guessed at some things, such as 2 dvd drive instead of 1, and 2 hard drives instead of 1. The answer I got was a recommended 345 watt power supply. In that case, this power supply here will work great! But I encourage you to do your own power calculations because you have more info about your pc than I do. This is the online calculator I used--&gt; http://www.thermaltake.outervision.com/ the CPU Socket for your pc is--&gt; Socket LGA 1155. Hope I have been able to help you.

Hi, in theory, yes. I searched the internet for details about the model you have, to find out there are several types of that model(standard and slim models: http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_755_techspecs.pdf). If your model is a slim one, there may be some issues mounting a video card with a standard bracket(that's about 10-12 cm long) but would accept smaller brackets(4-5 cm). Some video cards come with a small bracket too, so before purchasing, I would make sure the card has one too(or look for a card that is "small form factor"). In addition, based on the manual from the above link, it looks like all models are able to handle PCI express cards, so from this point of view, you'd be good to go.
