From: mc on 10 Jun 2010 15:47 I have few optiplex gx260 and 280 models (desktop) that have the 180 and 210 watt supplies. Is there anyone out there that designed a stronger power supply for these systems? I called dell and asked them if they had a pc express video card (low profile) for the gx280 and they could not find one that would work with the 210 watt supply.....go figure mc

What Dell did not tell you is that they have exactly zero inventory of low profile PCI Express cards. That's why they could not find one. Any low profile PCI Express card will work in the small Optiplex GX280 system. This is not saying very much, because the choice is extremely limited, as very few card manufacturers bothered with low profile PCI Express. Numerically, there is/was not much of a market for these cards. I have some fanless ATI Radeon X600 SE 128MB DDR1 PCI-e Video Card for the Dell OptiPlex GX280 (Dell part number F9595). These are factory-sealed in original Dell anti-static bags. How many do you need? .... Ben Myers

Ben i thought that the f9595 was a full height card (technically a half height card but with a full height bracket). the dell part g9184 is the same card with the half height bracket. and though it only has a single dvi port a dvi to vga connector or a dvi to dual vga conenctor can be used with the x600.

Do you have any low profile AGP's, I could use 2 of those? mc |
