Graphics upgrade Dell Studio XPS 435MT

Model: Studio XPS 435MT
Processor: Intel Core i7
Memory: 8 GB
OS: Windows 64-bit
Case: In Stock (never did a switch box but would be ready)

Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4350 512 MB 2
Power: 550w (honestly the first upgrade I did)

I pulled a lot of games for this thing, and it has served me very well. I am looking to do an update of basic graphics card but want to stay under $ 300.00, I don't want to go too big or too hot for the system (or unnecessarily powerful but I'm okay with that, like if this happens).

I am also ready to increase the ram, but once again to 8 GB I don't know if I'd get a vein off going up to 16 GB, but at the end of the day it's a learning experience and the installation is always fun.

Also, I'm ready to tell is don't bother, if it would be better to buy a new system, so I can actually consider doing that but shaped why can't not ask like you people seem quite knowledgeable GD.

EPS 12V 2.91 compliance means you should be able to use most of the maps, if the power supply is really high spec.

  • Dell Studio XPS 435mt does not - light light orange card mother

    I had my Studio XPS 435mt for recent years and love it! Normally I leave my machine on almost every day all day so I can access it remotely. Well, today my power went out (the product is connected to a good surge protector) and now it won't turn back on.

    When I plug it in there is a green light to the rear of the machine and internally, there is a orange light, which lights up. When I press the power button nothing happens, not even try to power on. I read a few forums that suggest all of a new power supply, a new motherboard and even a job to 'put your motherboard in the oven' random.

    So my question is can I do anything to check what the problem is? Also, if it of a motherboard problem and needs to be replaced, where is the best place to get a motherboard? Reference Dell sells to them directly or I have to go to a 3rd party to track down?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    A type of power surge Strip does nothing to protect the PC during a power failure.  You need a 'UPS' unit to protect the PC during short power outages (most).

    As he ran, anything could have happened to the power supply to the motherboard to a component on the motherboard.

    As you have the power to 'keep' alive on the card mother, indicated by orange LED, power supply works somewhat.  Unplug the power connector 24 pins on the motherboard.  Then the rider GREEN wire to a BLACK wire and see if the power turns on (fan running).  If it does, it does not say the PSU is good (only replace it with a known good power is the only true test for a power supply), but it does not say the rotation of the problem is not in the power.  If it does not start, food is the likely problem.

    If the power supply lights the other most likely problem is the motherboard.  Reinstall (unplug and plug back in) the prior panel connector on the motherboard and then give it a try. If it still does not respond, the motherboard is suspect.  The power switch, itself, would be a very remote problem.

    Dell is a source for a replacement motherboard.  There are sites that sell Dell used/given to nine motherboards and ends up with a google search.  Only another mother of exact replacement fit and work.

    Finally, regardless of the tests do or anything that seems as it isolates a certain part, unfortunately only to replace the part really tell you if it's bad.  To avoid buying something you don't need you can make to a PC repair center renamed to what is really wrong.

  • The Studio XPS 435MT graphics card upgrade

    Hi all

    I have a Dell Studio XPS 435mt with these specs:

    Intel Core I7 2.67 ghz

    6 GB of RAM

    ATI Radeon HD 4570 512 MB graphics card (it's the original one)

    I got nothing so far, but now I want to change the graphics card because I want to play games that require higher performance, I play with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 (1080 p).

    So what do you suggest me? What is the best graphics card can I take, compatible with the studio 435mt?

    I don't want to change the other components (and I mean the PSU in particular) I don't want to change the graphics card.

    So what is the graphics card that pushes the limit of this computer?

    I have another question.

    I bought this computer in Italy and it's because I'm Italian xD.

    Now I'm in Boston for the summer holidays and I would buy the card here. There is a compatibility problem between Italian and American computers?

    I mean the GPU are all the same despite the country or there are a few differences to take into account?

    I'm sorry if I am repetitive, but I don't know if my questions are clear and understandable.

    Thanks for your help!

    I have no budget.

    True, but even once, why would you spend $129 when the same one that costs only $89 HERE at Newegg.  Personally, I wouldn't put a high end as the HD 6970 card in your system, but it is up to you.  For me, just is not there, but I know that others have fact.   Cards more recent performance today they run cooler and are smaller than the last generation.  I know there are people who have put in the hot and power hungry GTX 295 in this system.  If you want a high end card without going overboard, take a look at the HD 6850 and HD 6870.  However, if you have money, you can do whatever you want if you use an i7 processor to go with it.  I'm just a little at low cost.

  • Studio XPS 435MT used to power on

    My 2 year old Dell Studio XPS 435MT does not illuminate.  This happened after a short break.  The PC is connected to a surge protector at the time of the failure.  When I try it on, the power button blinks orange and fans to contract.  The fans tremble twice when the power button is pressed - as it tries to start - but he'll nothinhg beyond that.  I have a green light solid on food and a solid amber light on the motherboard.  There is no change of material to this PC.

    Further investigation revealed that the food was good.  I have re-installed THE connections/cards and tried to turn on the unit by disconnecting the components (fans, disks, vid card, etc) one at a time to try to isolate the problem.  I also tried a known working video card.  No matter what I did, it will not turn on.  Same fan tics.  I bought a new computer, removed the hard drive and successfully files retrieved from it using a docking station.  I didn't belive the hard drive was the culprit here.  All the indications stated on the motherboard, so I bought a new (exact same manufacturer / plug).

    The new motherboard was going in and connections were verified tripple.  The PC then propelled straight up.  The computer normally acted through a series of restarts.  I thought that I had this figured out and I was very happy because I liked this computer - but not so fast!  When I stop the PC completely and tried to power on, I got exactly the same problem.  And exactly the same problem no matter what outlet, I used.

    Well, I thought that the food was maybe defective and I tried a new.  Nope - still no luck with that.  I heard that remove and then reinstall the CMOS/BIOS battery has worked for others, so I tried.  Of course - it worked.  The PC starts, but I have to restore the default BIOS settings.  After shutting down, it will still not be able to save, however, without resetting the battery.  As a last effort, I replaced the battery and, of course, who did nothing.

    Please help me because I really don't want to play with that battery every time there is a power failure or stop and I need to get the new card mother $150.00 returned as soon as POSSIBLE if the computer is off help.  Thank you!!!

    Thanks for the suggestion - just replaced the power supply with a 600W Corsair after that first try everything and now the system works very well once more.

    Before replacing, I tested the original power supply and found to work (short circuit green wire with the black) and also tried to isolate the component problem outside the MoBo, but couldn't find any cause.

    I have however noticed that power (at the back of the old PSU) light flickered weakly even if system was off - on the test PSU power LED blinking not.

  • Question of graphics Dell Studio XPS 8100

    I plan to upgrade my desktop computer Dell Studio XPS 8100 with a new graphics card, so that I can play new games such as Skyrim and Star Wars the old republic.

    Can someone tell me which of these cards is best for this purpose, corresponds to my computer and if other changes are needed (ideally no)?

    EVGA GTX 550 VGA (GDDR5, PCI-Express, 2 GB)
    Sapphire 6750 (PCI Express, DDR3, 2 GB)
    Sapphire 6790 (PCI-Express, GDDR5, 1 GB)
    PALIT GTX 550 Ti (GDDR5, PCI Express, 1 GB)

    Thanks in advance,

    Sikkaech

    Based on the recommended for Skyrim card, you will need to go with the HD 6790 or GTX 550 it.  However, your biggest problem is food that is only 350 watts.  For all these cards, a higher power is recommended by the manufacturer.  The HD 6790 is the best on the list with the GTX 550 Ti in 2nd.  I'll take the other two on your list because they would fall the recommended card, but they would always play the games.   I would recommend if you upgrade the power supply to go with a unit of minimum mark of 500 watts with the necessary connections.

    Skyrim recommended card: 1 GB RAM NVIDIA or AMD ATI video card (Nvidia GeForce GTX 260 or higher; ATI Radeon 4890 or higher).  Old video card then the ones I showed would be comparable.

    If you choose not to change your diet, a GTS 450 or HD 6750 can work.  I don't see much interest to get a card of 2 GB to this level.  It's going to be better than GDDR3 memory GDDR5.

    The current map graphic is a GeForce GTS 240, that it came with.

    My computer knowledge is Basic.

    Thanks for any help.

    You're better than replace the power supply Dell with a retail food more high wattage. Then the video card will be fine. Read your Manual for instructions.

  • Need to get the bluetooth works on Dell Studio xps 1640 after upgrade to Windows 8

    I upgraded my Dell Studio xps 1640 to Windows 8. Since then, I've never used Bluetooth, I was not concerned that my bluetooth software was not compatible.  Now, I've found a use for Bluetooth and I can't update my driver because when I try to download the driver I get the error message no bluetooth is detected.  I know that Windows 8 turned off the Bluetooth because of the lack of compatibility, but now I find myself in an enigma. How to Bluetooth if it does not appear?

  • Upgrade GPU for Studio XPS 435MT and indine power load max

    Hi, I have a Studio XPS 435MT with a 360W power supply and an ati radeon HD4800 series GPUs (likely a 4850). I want to improve the gpu with a gpu from Gainward GeForce GTX 750 2 GB (one slot), GDDR5. It uses just 55W and there is no external power supply plug, the HD4800, but in the GTX card appears: minimum 300W or more system power supply (with a minimum of 12V current rating of 20A). And I do not know if this 20 a could be a problem, because my Delta DPS-360FB-1 diet doesn't seem to reach the rated current.

    What do you suggest me?

    Thank you

    combined maximum 12V 12VA and 12VB output for this unit is 300W which is 25, but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

    If you draw 20 amps on the 12v rail you used 240W leaving 60W for everything else that needs 12V.

    And if you use 300W on the 12v rail that leaves 60W max for the 5v / 3.3V through less 10W to + 5VSB.

    GTX 750 will be in this case either well, or it does not at all due to the lack of power on one or more tracks.

    HD4850 certainly consumes MORE energy than a GTX750 so that only one point of view, it should be good.

  • Dell Studio XPS

    I recently had the power supply replaced on my Dell Studio XPS.  I have now no audio rear output to my monitor Acer H233H internal speakers.  I tried external speakers; had no audio rear output, but they work using the headphone output.  Need suggestions for the work of rear exit.

    Thank you.

    The power supply has been replaced by a Dell authorized service center.

    It's a Studio XPS 435MT; running Win 7.  Monitor - Acer H233H, connected via a VGA cable.

  • Dell Studio XPS too noisy!

    I have a Dell Studio XPS 9000 with a Radeon 5870 graphics card that makes too much noise. I think it is the fan noise. I called technical support, which replaced two fans. Did not help - if anything, it is now more noisy he was! All idling, it is not quiet.

    The system is about a year. (Is there more than the 2 fans in the system by the way?)

    (1) can anyone suggest how this system down?

    (2) I contacted a vendor third 3d that makes fans more silent, so-called, but the seller must exact model or type numbers or something Dell fans. Does anyone know how to find out exactly what kind of fans are in the Dell XPS and also exactly what solutions third-party 3d for quieter fans there are, if any?

    It is also an old thread, you should start a new one.

    I assume you mean a Studio XPS 9000.

    This model according to the configuration guide, has no onboard video and no on-board video port is shown in the figure on page 20 of this installation guide. If you cannot select video...

    What do you mean by "the noise of the fan? It's just the fan spins at high speed or is it squealing or some other noise?

    You can open the case and make sure the fan and vents are clean. Use canned air to blow 5 - year-old dust of all components.

    And if this started after a recent update of MS, you can consult the Web of AMD site for an updated driver for the video card today, that works with any version of Windows that you are using before you spend money unnecessarily.

    Hello guys,.

    I desperately need drivers for my DELL Studio XPS 1645 Windows XP Pro SP3 compatibility

    I know that 32 bit OS does not work well with my processor and RAM, so do not mention please, I use this for the programming of the car.

    Tried ABSOLUTELY everything imaginable I stumbled upon Web sites after searching, but didn't help at all :(

    No sound from speakers, no sound in the headphones, nothing...

    Guys, H E L P :(

    Dell gets from the provider, IDT HD drivers. I don't know exactly how the procurement process, but I guess that when Dell order equipment for a specific system, drivers for operating systems that Dell intends to support are included in the order. If it's something like this then of course a manager can later allow the expense of having a driver written for an operating system that is not supported on a discontinued model.

    The operating system of this forum section has a driver request thread. Someone there might know of an alternative audio driver which might work on your system.

    One solution is to get an adapter usb audio.

    I don't know what "join" - it's something to do with virtual XP?

  • Dell studio xps 1645 sound driver IDT works only when it is installed.

    I have the dell studio xps 1645 with windows 7 home premium 64-bit installed on. I have a problem since I format the laptop and reinstalled windows 7 and driver.

    The problem is that with the IDT sound card driver. When I start up the laptop, I couldn't find any noise until then I install the IDT audio driver which is from the website of dell (dell.com.au) under the drivers of dell studio xps 1645 by download. Sounds appears when I installed this driver, but it is not as it should. I mean whenever I do reboot or turn off and then on the laptop, the sound will not come up to what I do reinstall the driver again. The thing is that I have to reinstall the driver whenever I want to use the laptop. can you help me out of this problem? is there any solution for this? I did some research until I get the way to recover my sound, but yes I'm stuck with this relocation pilot to use sound. I did troubleshooting of windows and he said nothing wrong with it. I'll also technician support close to home and they couldn't find anything wrong. I therefore ask microsoft in the hope that they know the way

    . Thank you.

    Hi Felix,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of community of Microsoft.

    I understand that the sound of your system plays only after you update the audio drivers. The question could arise due to the installation of the corrupt or incompatible driver package.

    Before troubleshooting, I would like to inform you that the drivers for the model of your system on the Dell Web site are displayed for Windows Vista, by default. So, I recommend you to change the operating system to Windows 7 while choosing for pilots.

    In addition, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Try running the fixit for audio playback of Windows problems and check if it helps.

    Diagnose and solve the problems of Windows audio playback automatically

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    If you have installed Windows 7 drivers from the website and have not properly been able to play the audio, then I suggest you to install the Windows Vista drivers from Dell site in compatibility mode and check for the issue.

    1. Download the Windows Vista driver on the Dell website.
    2. Right-click on the downloaded driver file.
    3. ClickProperties , and then select the compatibility tab.
    4. Check enable the option run this program in compatibility mode for: , then select Windows Vista from the drop down.
    5. Click OK and install the driver.
