4 Things to Know About Adding a GPU to the OptiPlex 3060 SFF

  1. The low-profile PCIe x16 slot fits only low-profile GPUs The slot is physically present, but the case design limits you to cards that are short and slim.

  2. The 180W power supply is the main bottleneck It lacks PCIe power connectors, so you cannot install any GPU that requires external power.

  3. Stick with an NVIDIA GT 1030 or AMD Radeon RX 550 These are the only realistic options that draw power solely from the slot and fit the case.

  4. Expect basic GPU acceleration, not gaming These cards handle video playback and light productivity tasks, but gaming performance will be poor.
