I have this for 6 weeks already. I like it more then I thought I would. I replaced CPU fan with vetroo V5 and rear fan with be quiet 92mm PWM. Extra $40 and definitely worth doing long term for extra airflow. GPU is mining when idle for 29.5 MH with -200core, +650mem,70 power limit and 53% fan speed (custom curve in msi afterburner). GPU temp 53C.


Clean windows install is a must.

For everyone who bought or is buying this, you should watch the Games Nexus review of this card! ( Just search "Dell GN GPU" it's a POS and I bought it myself. If you going to keep just the card, I would flip it before the 1 year warranty is up or of its possible a better heatsink and fan for the gpu. And I noticed there are so many of these Dell oem broken cards selling on ebay!

i think the onboard 730 graphics would play league decently.

how would i conform it has onboard though?
I checked the pics and slots before ordering and there's a DisplayPort and HDMI input onboard.
The graphics card slot, at the bottom, has multiple DisplayPorts and a single HDMI. This means it should have onboard graphics.

Thanks for the info.. was thinking of upgrading my aging i4 inspiron but don't want to pay more that 250. Not sure how far I can stretch with that budget limit. Ill just reuse my GPU ..GTX 1070ti.. maybe even reuse my PSU 500W
Tried pcpartpicker? Tons of great options for you. I suggest i5-10400 or 11400 based on my research, with a basic motherboard. That should be around $250, I guess a bit more with over 8 GB DDR4.

I wonder if the mobo is a universal type where you can swap the innards into a std ATX case and use a more powerful PSU?
Its not. Its a dell specific board

I honestly just go by the Intel product page which confirms it has the 730 onboard.

I was wondering if there was any reason the AMEX $120 off wouldn't work with this. Looks good I think.
If you haven't gotten any other response: no reason. Amex credits apply to the billed amount (incl. tax) from the vendor. They don't have information on what discount you applied.

Just to confirm playdc, so your cart was the Member Purchase Program in which as a member you get 3% rewards and expedited shipping and you still got the AMEX confirmation email?
My order was with $19 rewards and expedited shipping, I got the Amex offer confirmation email.

noob question. Does it still work if you take out and sell the graphic card? I mean use something like build-in Intel graphic?

Yes it does, but if you plan to game, you will be limited. Otherwise, it does have onboard graphics.

I will need to buy a computer by December. Generally only want to buy Dell XPS Desktop.

I can wait until Black Friday but am debating the merits if I should pull the trigger now (Amex $120 eligible) or wait until November.

Thoughts?

IMO - Buy now and enjoy it. Check for Black Friday deals and if something peaks your interest, then sell your machine and upgrade.
