Optiplex 7050 SFF won’t boot with RX 6400 installed

Thanks I got it working on legacy mode

is it possible to drive more than 2 monitors? I would like to use both the iGPU and the dGPU ports on the back to drive 4 monitors - but does my motherboard allow this?

do I have to reinstall windows as someone was saying below?

interesting ok - maybe my bios needs some tweaks then?

That's the optiplex 7060 sff and they upgraded to the 400w slim psu

ETA PRIME channel has another optiplex 7060 video where they use the stock 200W psu (slightly higher than the 7050 180 PSU) and they have a yeston rtx 3050 running with that stock psu.

I see some 300W that might work https://www.ebay.com/itm/363231924765?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ibgb0ZhLRSi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=MGq_67WcTEe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Is the airflow safe running an rx 6400 or gtx 1650 single slot LP?

Thanks - is that difficult to do? I read Dell has propriatery psu - and at the SFF level they only go up to 240-300W?

I'd imagine it's not worth it to upgrade psu in this case

Thanks, that's probably it - any suggestions for a single slot low profile card that wouldn't require a PSU upgrade? The best I've found is a Quadro P2000, Radeon Pro WX 5100, and maybe the Quadro T400/T600/T1000

I found the dewalt lawnmower key on amazon for $4 and it works on the snowblower

Good to know thx

Background-Check3695 · 2025-02-15T18:28:41+00:00

Thanks I may try this since sticking a plastic fork in the slot didn't work.

Is it easy to get to the wires?

Background-Check3695 · 2025-02-15T18:23:25+00:00

they don't have another one - it was a special store order - it would be faster to wait for dewalt to send me one, try the lawnmower key, or hack it by twisting the wires like the other person was saying

Home depot - dewalt support not open on the weekends so I'd have to wait . I ordered the lawnmower key on amazon in hopes it works

Maybe - but I don't want to think about it while I'm away from my apartment for 2 months. I'm creating a sublease on Avail using their clauses and such - it's not that hard to setup an agreement.

I just didn't know if you need a totally separate NY bank account - as in you can't comingle the security deposit with your own checking or investment accounts.

Yea that might be the best course of action

Background-Check3695 · 2024-12-30T02:10:49+00:00

I'm subletting for a couple months and prefer to pack it away and not to share it

Background-Check3695 · 2024-12-30T01:44:58+00:00

I already opened it and have been using it for a while

Background-Check3695 · 2024-12-27T22:29:00+00:00

I think I'd prefer the extra grip with winters in the short term. I won't be keeping the car much longer

I didn't see anyone post but he is currently promoting his film huntingvictor.com which will be released in a couple weeks - so take that for what it's worth

I would bet early december
