If they were still $80, I'd do it, but not for $140-150. AMD Radeon R7 Graphics can generate more than 51.41 USD monthly income with a 22.71 MH/s hashrate on the ETH - Ethash (Phoenix) algorithm. I would love a GT 1030, but they are way more than I want to spend for a "beater" pc. If nothing else, I'd like to know if the HD 7570 will work in these Optiplexes so I can return the R7 250. I just want something more than the integrated graphics. I was thinking maybe the stock PSU was not enough to power the card.? I bought it used off of ebay and I was looking at either the R7 250 or an AMD HD 7570 as I don't need anything as nice as my other two graphics cards. however, I don't have another DVI to HDMI cable to test his solution. I found one thread with a user who had a similar problem. Note: I cannot install/test the GTX 1060 or 1050 into the Optiplex 3020 because they are too thick and won't fit.įrom what I can tell, this gpu should work in these computers, but tbh I don't really know. installed in a friend's Lenovo regular sized tower (same black screen issue) installed AMD R7 250 in the Optiplex 7010, which has the GTX 1060 (also results in black screen with no POST) ensured that cable is functional and ensured proper seating tried switching to UEFI (not sure what this means, but it made the pc unbootable) ensured that secure boot was off and legacy is enabled (I don't see any gpu settings in bios to adjust) updated all drivers and bios from dell website using their update software So, I cannot change anything in the bios while it's installed.
The fan spins and the pc sounds like it's (possibly) booting up, but I never get a screen, not even a POST screen.

However, when I install it, there is no display whatsoever. I purchased a low profile Dell AMD R7 250 2gb ddr3 gpu to upgrade the 3020 pc. Here are the specs:ħ010 - i7, 20gb ram, stock PSU, and GTX 1060 (75 watt) gpuĩ010 - i5, 20gb ram, stock PSU, and GTX 1050 (75 watt) gpuģ020 - i5, 8gb ram, stock PSU, and integrated gpu I currently have 3 Optiplex SFF computers - 7010, 9010, and 3020.
