Double video for a DT optiplex 755 (office)

All - I have a dell optiplex 755 desktop model and want to switch to two monitors.  Im not playing or do the cutting-edge graphics, I want just the flexibility to both monitors.  I do a lot of design document in development work and would like to be able to have the two windows runs in both full screen mode.  Looks like there are a lot of monitors on slickdeals now a days.  I would like help in selecting a suitable video card to get there. any suggestions?

No, it was the other HDMI and DVI.

A DVI-HDMI or HDMI-DVI cable will work. In my case, two monitors were DVI, so I used a HDMI-DVI cable. There are more complex and expensive cards with two DVI ports, but it is cheaper to use a cable such as I have described.

  • Video card in Dell Optiplex 755 Desktop HELP

    Hello everyone, I'm new here and I really need your help :)

    I have a Dell Optiplex 755 desktop computer and incredible as it may seem that I did not know the Office had no graphic card (video card?) lol x)

    The Office gave at Christmas, I wonder if you could indicate a video card ideal for my desktop PC which is not too expensive.

    I use Windows 7 Pro, I don't know much about computers components, but I found this graphics card what you think? Will work or not? graphics-cards.specout.com/.../ASUS-GeForce-210-Silent

    I really need your help guys.

    This is bad advice because the card in question is not necessarily in all cases EXCEPT TOUR because of the unique slot configuration.  FAT OFF heat sinks will not physically go in the models of desktop SFF and USFF has no slot so no card is an option.

    Radiator to map out more 1 wide slot.

    This is why I always recommend specific ASUS Radeon HD5450 or 6450 cards.

  • Second choice HD for a Dell Optiplex 755

    Hi all

    I just bought a Dell Optiplex 755 to replace the Zino HD 400, which eventually gave the soul. My question is: can I use the hard disk of 1 TB of the ZINO as second player for the 755 and can I buy a plug adapter for the second span Prewired in the 755 that would fit the Zino HD?

    Thanks for any help you can give.

    Will be

    Looks like the Zino has a SATA 2 HARD drive, so you shouldn't have any problems in the 755, unless you have the screenshot form factor that supports only a SATA hard drive, and you may have to remove the floppy drive the other models of form factor, if installed, to make room for a second HDD.

    You will probably be able to use the same data the Zino SATA cable the 755. Read the Manual for more information on the installation of a second HDD in your specific form factor.

  • Dell optiplex 755 mt graphics card update

    Hi all! :))
    I have an optiplex 755 minitour. I have a gt graphics card EN8600, I want to buy http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/R72501GD5/ it. It comes in the box? I know that low profile 7750 is the best choice, but in my country is not available. Sorry for my English when I wrote something wrong. Thank you for your answer :)

    OK, so I ended up buying the card low profile Diamond HD Radeon 1 GB for my Dell Optiplex 755 minitour, well right off the bat I knew there would be problems, firstly the big black box is really tight against the card and because of two "transistors" just above the video card slot radeon hd7750 didn't come home. So I removed the top of the video card fan and he went, but when I got to the top of the computer screen, black. OK for the next, that I made that I had uninstalled my previous ATI Radeon X 600 series drivers and Yes, they were gone I also ensured that in my BIOS, this graphics card was elected s and when it does not work I went back to "automatic". Still does not work, the monitor says no signal it stays black. I tried to install drivers before I put the video card in and that has not worked, I tried to put the card in and remove the cmos battery to see if it would work and that SO it did not work, either I am completely frustrated and it was my birthday present and I was very happy to receive now really upset! I know I should of treated Tigerdirect! I bought the video card in DiamondMultiMedia on eBay, that they had a positive rating of 99% so I thought ok good deal lets roll. After all this, I called support and the tech told me as if I was a student of fifth to which I informed him that I had tried everything. He wanted to give me another card but I have to pay the shkpping return this Radeon HD7750 and then they send me another lmao graphics card I said no as I want my money back on my card! Do not buy this is not going in the Dell OLptiplex 755 MT

  • CPU Upgrade for Optiplex 755 - Core 2 Quad?

    Hey guys!

    I have a Dell Optiplex 755 desktop computer. It's a SFF, and I picked up the recycling room in my office. It just need a HD fan, and it runs great. He got a Core 2 vPro 3.0 ghz in there at the moment, 4 MB of cache and FSB 1333.

    It works well, but I would like to upgrade to a slightly faster processor and I am considering my options. I watched the fastest Core 2 Duo, I couldn't, and they offer only a 3.33 ghz, however, it's something like $350 dollars for the processor.

    I started thinking maybe I should see what there is and realized that there is also the Core 2 Quad and the Extreeme of 2 Core that are available with one cache of FSB 1333 mhz, and PGA775 (or other).

    I'm curious, but you guys don't know if it is possible to install a Core 2 Quad or a Core 2 Extreme in my Dell Optiplex 755? This PDF shows on Page 10 to take a Core 2 Quad. http://www.Dell.com/downloads/global/products/Optix/en/opti_755_techspecs.PDF

    Which is the maximum that the BIOS will recognize / support? Can I use a QX6850?

  • Card PCI-E graphic for Dell Optiplex 755 SFF

    Hi all

    I have an Optiplex 755 SFF 275W PSU and PCI-E video slim with.  Graphics on this series are awful - video DVD playback cannot without jerking.  I spent a few hours trolling on the web trying to determine which video card will work in the 755.  The general consensus of the 'guaranteed' card is the Radeon HD 2400 PRO.  So, I managed to follow a fact (after trying a 5570 & it not even leave the PC start), had shipped here and installed.  To see that it does not too leave the PC startup.  So typical of Dell to make the PC which are incredibly limited.  What is the point of having a PC capable of running Win 7 (will have 8 GB of DDR2 RAM, has currently of 2 GB and currently has a Dual E6550 - core 2.3 Ghz CPU) when he cannot take a card even modestly spec'd?  This is the last time that I buy Dell.

    Anyway, having spent the mug shot (ah, much better, thank you)-why the this junky 755 will only take the so-called "guaranteed" HD 2400 PRO?  When I try to start it up, it not this stupid pre-start high ramp / down fans, then turns off, try again, then turns off, then on the 3rd go fans just go hard on & stay like that for as long as I care to leave.  If I take the HD 2400 PRO on & put this stupid DVI adapter card in the PCI-E slot, it's all good.

    No changes have been made to the 755 - it's just a standard stock machine.  If for some bizarre reason, all others using the HD 2400 PRO with the 755 SFF tell bald-faced lies (that is, they are not really using a HD 2400 PRO at all), what are the other maps?  I see that the motherboard has "25W" appear next to the slot PCI - E - but the HD 2400 PRO is rated at 25 w max.

    Buy the 755 was supposed to be an inexpensive way to make a living desktop PC.  I don't want to lose more money on cards that don't work.  And the HD 2400 PRO was relatively expensive for such an old map, obsolete (crazy NZD$ 42 - when a 5570 is only NZD$ 65).

    Any help / constructive suggestions appreciated.

    You can change. Click the Green pencil. But I already have to remove both blasphemous words.

  • Dell Optiplex 755 SFF 2015 video card update

    Dear readers.

    I'll buy my first Dell computer, which is a Dell Optiplex 755 Small Form Factor. It has a Core 2 Quad q6600 CPU in it, with 2 GB of ram and a PSU 275w. I have a Nvidia Geforce GT220 video card, which is a low profile video card, it can consume the maximum of 58 W, and this video card requires at least 300 W works without problems. Will it work with this diet?

    Thank you!

    I'll buy an Ati Radeon HD 2400 XT, because im does not intend to do some games 'hardcore' and other animals, it can be good for my needs.

    The 2400XT is very outdated and terribly weak power. You are much better with people like a Sapphire 6450, that can be done for $43 postpaid from Newegg.

  • Video upgrade - business multi-screen on Optiplex 755 MT

    People,

    Please, let me share my upgrade of success a good end of the Dell Optiplex 755 MT for multi-monitor lease.

    If you are looking to use a great system for companies, but want to add multiple monitors (which is fantastic for productivity), so this solution might be nice for you.  And do graphics multi-monitor solution that works is easy and difficult at the same time!   It's easy if all the material is known to work together!  This note is therefore, on this topic.

    * With the help of ATI over-pants 2450 in 16th housing PCI Express.

    * Four monitors (via VGA or DVI adapters included) OVER the motherboard video still works!

    * Updated the BIOS to the most recent.

    * Note that this card works PCI 2.0, and it works in what is apparently a PCIe 1 location. on the MOBO 755 0 a.  A 2.1 card may not work.

    * This is for businesses and all five monitors work fine now, even with YouTube.  This is not intended as a game environment.

    * There are a few things to try in BIOS in terms of parameters - for a while, there was a mistake of memory and the thing wouldn't start - it took a little time to understand the exact configuration of he.

    * WIndows 7 is the operating system used - and Windows Aero works.

    * I'm not long seen accidents associated with old Jaton NVidia PCI cards that we used previously.

    * The physical slot size are fine.

    * Consumption looks very good.

    * Cost of ITX Canada was about $250 more shipping, tax etc.

    * Here's the Sapphire version of the AMD ATI card, which is very good.

    * The AMD reference number is 100-505531.

    Five monitors are not identical (three different geometries and two sellers)

    * Device Manager lists the latest AMD video drivers for this card as installed and work - I am not quite clear if the drivers have been installed from the download, or later.

    Actual installation was required for their persistence and a little hairy.  When I reboot, I'll see all noting the exact BIOS settings.

    * The system crashed not once now, in a week of constant availability, including browsers open 20 tablets or more periods and use of the physical memory of 80%.

    * System 6 GB of RAM, running 64-bit and BIOS A22.

    Good luck.

  • OptiPlex 755 dafault power supply for disk HARD 3

    Hello all, I have this Optiplex 755 DT and I use it as a media server. So far I used two hard drives by removing the optical unit. I have read forums and I think I can add a third HARD drive since there is at least one available sata (the other seems to be reserved for the optical drive) but my concern is the power supply because it has only two sata power cables. I know I could use a splitter but I was wondering if the power supply can produce enough power for three 7200 HARD drives / a PCI express x 16 video card.

    Hi jigzat,

    Hard disks use very little energy. OEM power will have no harm to manage another drive in your 755. So the idea of splitter is fine.

  • Instructions for the installation of Windows 10 on Dell Optiplex 755 with running Windows 7

    I need instructions on how to install Windows 7 to 10 Windows on a Dell Optiplex 755.

    Task of pre-required

    When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

    then

    then

    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Reboot several times, and then try again.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).
  • How to add SSD for Optiplex 755 (Small Form Factor)

    Hi-

    I want to add a SSD for my Optiplex 755 (Small Form Factor) boot drive while maintaining the HARD disk it came with and the player optical slimline. There is a SATA port on the motherboard, but there is no open Bay and not a lot of room in the chassis (I do not see a power open cable).

    Anyone know how or if I can add a SSD to 2.5 inches to this machine? Would need a power splitter? And it's even bothered to improve an Optiplex 755-10 Windows?

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    -Lewis

    Adding a drive in the optical Bay is possible.  But you cannot run without the original hard disk on the desktop SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT models.

    http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?Main_Page=product_info&cPath=2_3&products_id=439

    You will get an error message on the thermal characteristics of the drive.

    SSD on SFF and USFF support have a problem due to heat dissipation.  The hard drive if not acknowledged will give an error, press F1 to continue.

    BIOS errors are;

  • Problem starting OptiPlex 755 (video)

    Howdy all!

    I just got a Dell Optiplex 755 FDF (for someone else).  I installed a Nvidia GeForce 610 graphics card into the PCIe slot.  He started the next time and I was able to install the software and Nvidia drivers.

    The PC was behaving strangely since then. Sometimes it will start fine.  Other times it will start only on-screen vBIOS, who manage the Dell splash screen.  It will be so stay on the vBIOS screen and is not engaged in the POST.  The attached screen is what happens when power on and the system is blocked.  I tested the card in another PC for a few days.  More than a dozen of start ups and not get caught once.  I ran with the 755 iGPU at the same time, he started without problem as well, no gluing.

    So I know it's a problem between the card and the system.  Just don't know what.  I know the vBIOS map is up to date and am pretty sure that THE system BIOS is updated to version A22.

    As this happens randomly, yet often, I am at a loss of what could be a possible cause.  Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Please write to the Dell Community Forum.

    I would ask you to try these steps and advise the result,

    * Since it is intermittent problem starting dell diagnostics from the system and advise the result.

    Also send the serial number of the system via private message so that I can check the system specifications to help you further.

  • USFF OptiPlex 755 for HDD Caddy/RAILS part number?

    I inherited 8 eight Optiplex 755 USFF machines (ULTRA SMALL FORM FACTOR). They lack all their hard drives, and I just realized under the cover that it is just a metal container lack the blue part plastic caddy/rails. I'll have a terrible time trying to find the part number appropriate because everyone online tags their photos with about 10 different 7xx Optiplex models, ranging from unspecified SFF and rarely find USFF.

    I know a picture is worth a 1000 words, but if I had one I would probably be able to find the part number. On the 755 Mini Tower there blue bins or carts that drives staple in and then you slide on the machine. The USFF is a set of blue rails that screw in the HARD drive or is it a similar caddy? I have a lot of them (from 755MT and Precision workstations) laying around, but these blue trays do not adapt the 755 USFF.

    To clarify a bit more. There is a metal drawer/box HARD drive to staple in. This metal tray screws down on the chassis. It is a small square fan that screws into the metal tray so the part I'm looking for is the part in blue plastic to HARD drive only WITHOUT fan, just the part that securely attaches the disk of the machine.

    Thanks for any help. When I entered some of the ST in the Dell website they specify HARD drive that machines shipped with but do not specify the part number for the tray/caddy drive HARD blue.

    Thank you.

    Here are therefore 7000 words on this subject. For USFF disc trays are not blue and they are not plastic. Point 4 is called the HARD disk in the tray of PG027. The drive tray has PLASTIC fixing Rails (2 required), USFF: U2836 that keep you in the PG027plateau.

  • What graphics card to Optiplex 755?

    I read some interesting things lately, like ' players not to buy jobs ', and there is really not much difference between a high-end workstation graphics card and a high-end card gamer, except the stabile, the ability to render OpenGL drivers and the price, price, price!

    Well, I like the stability, durability and support of a professional computer, so here I am with an Optiplex 755 w / Wolfedale E8400 Core duo 3.0 MHz, cache 6 MB L2, 1333 bus FS. It came with memory 667 MHz instead of 800, but it seems that 667 DDR must be able to feed the 1333 FSB well enough. I just upgraded the RAM max 4 g w / XP Pro 32-bit. Not too bad a machine, to what I studied put them in a graphics card. I must say that I'm not a gamer, but would like to try a few games, maybe FlightSim. I intend to make a video montage of family videos, and wants to rapid processing and output quality. I was called to splash around to be a hardware geek from time to time.

    I knew that slot PCIE-16 version 1.0, so the 1/2 the speed of 2.0. Somehow, I thought that the graphics card would determine the speed, but it was a chimera. Someone told me that PCIE 2.0 cards would not work with a 1.0 interface. (It is also only 1 slot, so no Crossfire or SLI.)

    So I started looking on the cards in PCIE 1.0 game more fast, the 8800 GTS 320 M and 640M. However, I am worried about the basic things 2 - editing of the card in the machine and do not FRY machine. The slot itself is marked 75 W. All comments graphics card I've seen recently are beginning to 130W consumption at idle and go up to perhaps 250W + dependent. What gives? Can someone tell me what means the restriction of 75W Optiplex 755 PCIE-16, and how to know what cards he meet.

    Also, I came to realize after some time and read some post here the mobo is actually an upside in the Optiplex 755 minitower. If you look at the front of the computer almost all the time - all other Dell and most computers I saw - the motherboard is on the right. In the Optiplex 755 system is on the left! This means that the graphics card must go up the face in the PCIE slot. That in itself is more logical, that hot air would rise out of the heat sink, rather than having trapped under the Board (see solutions of Zalman heatsink of heat). However, Dell Engineers put the PCIE slot at the top of the expansion slot. This means no double height, that are better cooled cards. There is also the heatsink shroud / huge CPU fan and case relatively shallow, making it probably can't get a card of 9 or 10 in in the machine. Goodbye 8800 GTS (unless he can stand up and there is a single height - prob 320Mo - ones that work pretty cool)? Opinion, please!

    I found a great deal in a map of the workstation - ATI FireGL V7200 - with total memory 40 GB/s bandwidth and an extension of the removable card, so the length of the map would be good. But guess what, it's the double-height! If only there was a way to hack off the grilled second slot cover, or somehow bend it to fit in the case without voiding warranty! Very frustrating!

    It seems that I am stuck with the 8600 GTS, unless someone can tell me otherwise - please! 512 M GDDR3 is important, but bandwidth total memory is the key - 32Gbytes/s, it is at least half of the 8800 GTS.

    So the next concern is the heat dissipation. When the heat emerges from the graphics card, if all goes well it will drift away from the CPU and not get drawn by the CPU fan on the heatsink for the CPU! Or elevation to kill my memory cards! What is your opinion on this concern? I have to / can I put an almost opposite case fan the CPU fan? Talk at cross-purposes. What about an expansion slot fan? Below of the graphics card, I don't know how much good it would do.

    I found the solution to food. It's a power PC and cooling 500W Dell special edition with 2 metal connectors that are necessary to justify the power supply at the top of the case. I do not think that it is possible to interrupt the power supply comes from the screws? So, which limits your choice of power supply. I had looked at other power supplies, like the OCZ / StealthXStream / 600 watts, but I wonder if that will be suspended correctly. In addition, fan PSU on the bottom of it might be a good thing? -draw the hot air on the top of the graphics card in the power supply? Maybe a bad thing, but the air flow case is generally supposed to be good.

    And then, if I get the 8600 GTS, I don't need a new power supply. I found a post here that says than 305 w as I have a nominal 12V 18 a. well, 8600 GTS needs 30A. BTW, the XFX is a good card? -that looks like what I want to come to - guaranteed for life! I guess that EVGA is an alternative, but I can't find an EVGA 8600 GTS 512 MB DDR3 cheap.

    I'm looking forward to hear your comments and suggestions on a graphics card - less than $200, please! Thank you.
