But I would like to say this dell piece of shit doesn't have enough power distribution throughout motherboard to gpu socket and other pcie slots. Truely bad design on the case also.... Dell did not think about any standards on this which you cannot upgrade any other than RAM and SSD. I mean it's a tower version.. why didn't they make any standard cpu which have in the market.? SFF is ok because it's SFF. But this tower version also had version of SFF motherboard and it only fits low power components. Don't buy this branded shit. It's absolute waste of money...

Great video but its not the the ultimate Dell Optiplex Ive got a Dell Optiplex 7060 MT, I7 8700, 64GB DDR4 Ram, 2 TB Samsung 990 Pro SSD, Crucial T500 1TB SSD on a Riser card and 18TB HDD, 500w PSU and a Full size MSI Geforce RTX 4060 8GB Dual fan GPU with 8 pin power from the PSU and its a beast for a optiplex. Im not saying mines the best but Its gotta be pretty darn close for not changing the stock motherboard and CPU. I havent seen anyone on youtube as of yet do a video on a Dell Optiplex 7060 MT with a RTX 4060 8GB Yet.

Obtained an old customer's machine with an FX6300 and turning it into a budget Fortnite machine, so used this guide to attempt a bit more oomph, thank you very much. The cooler inside the build is puny, so this actually results in a worse score and temps of 82 degrees, so for anyone with a crap cooler please be aware of this. A beefier cooling solution would be required to make this overclocking viable.

Generally Radeon pull a lot more power. An RX580 8GB will blow the PSU in a short time! Job on Nvidia 10/16 series is you can undervolt them down quite low! Failing that just slap a 3050 6GB in with no worries.

is it possible to use other brands than this HP as long as they have i5- 8.gen and got min 16GB Ram? In Germany there are much cheaper options. Many of them are SFF models but the RTX 3050 is quite small so it could fit inside at least for some of them. Most HP290 with your specs are selled in GB with a shipping of 30€ :D

Nice work Andy! Good to see what can be put together for such a low price. I do agree with you that spending money on a really nice case can sell the low end builds really quickly, I really like the ionz cases these days so you might want to take a look at some of them. I usually buy them around £40-45 in my cheap flip builds around £250-£300 and they seem to go down well with my customers.
