I just bought a used Dell Optiplex 7010 Mini-Tower, Quad Core i7 3770 (3.4GHz), 16GB DDR3 SDRAM, 1TB Hard Drive: Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit. Should be here in couple weeks, and I want to start looking for a graphics card for the PCI-e x16 slot. It has to have VGA connector, fit the case, and run off the onboard power supply (265 W active PFC / 100 - 240 V AC). All the card has to do is let me watch online movies, TV shows, and some Youtube videos without stuttering or freezing....maybe I may decide to do some work with GIMPshop on the Win 7, or GIMP on the MX Linux. Note: I will be installing a Syba mobile-rack in the spare 5.25 bay, which allows use of both an SSD for the MX Linux, and spare hard disk for bare-metal backups.
Anyway, I could use recommendations of graphics cards that meets the three requirements. The more choices the better. Thanks.
