Studio XPS 9100 video card update

Hello

I currently own a Studio XPS 9100, I am looking to update my video to a Nvidia GTX 660 card. My first choice of the map would be the GIGABYTE GV-N660OC-2GD, but I am concerned about cooling in my case, since it's a map outdoors. The card that's in there now is the Radeon HD 5770 standard with a closed around the map case. I know the case of XPS 9100 doesn't have a lot of fans and I wonder if I'd be better off getting a card with a case like the one that is there now, those who are better for internal cooling cases or are the two models of cards very well to use this system without modification?

This card should work, but as you said would be throwing air hot back on the case and may not be the best for a stock case, unless you upgraded your fans or have a power supply that can compensate for the extra heat.  Should work well.   If you keep your machine in a well-ventilated vs in a Cabinet, you should be ok.

If not, opt for one of these reference maps which has the shroud designed to channel air on the back of the card,

  • XPS 420, video card update without changing the power supply

    So I recently did some changes on my Dell XPS 420.  The processor is the same that had been originally purchased, Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz, but I upgraded the RAM 6 GB and spin as a Windows 10 Insider Preview OS 64-bit on a partition with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on another partition.  I've also added a new 2 to HARD drive, a USB 3.0 PCI Express card and thinking about getting a 500 GB Samsung SSD EVO. Here's my question though, and it is a video card...

    I want to upgrade the video card, but don't know much about them.  I don't want to touch the food, and I want to just install a new video card.  I do not play video games a large part at all, but I stream videos from my PC if it matters that I've seen people suggest GTX Nvidia as well as the Sapphire HD 7770 550Ti, but I've also seen some people said these cards require greater power than my machine so I am confused.  What is a good affordable video card that would be worth upgrading for me?

    I appreciate any info that can be provided, thanks!

    The TI 750 will not harm your diet or your portfolio. The R7 250 is $99 and the 750 TI is $ 139. It is in the middle between the really cheap and good performance.

    What is a simple but effective update to the XPS 8500 video card? (Computer complete Newb)


    Hello Dell Community. I read through the sticky XPS compatibility and some discussions on upgrading video cards. However, I couldn't find something that fits my needs. If you all can help me with this, would be great!

    Characteristics of the computer:

    • Dell Xps 8500
    • Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHZ
    • 16 GB of Ram
    • 64-bit operating system
    • AMD Radeon HD 7570

    Needs:

    • Run newer games of 2014/2015 without lag on medium to high heat (GTA V)
    • Relatively easy to install (remove some screws and paste the video card in and voila!)
    • No need to upgrade the power supply

    Budget is $ 200-250:

    • Obviously the lower the better and if need be, the budget is flexible. Depends on if the gain is important for the payment of the sum.

    Look forward to your answers!

    Thank you

    Richard

    A card that I know works is $200 would be

    EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0 + 2GB GDDR5 128 bit 02 G-P4-2966-KR that it comes with a 2 X 6 pin cable 8 pin Y so the stock power should be good.

    more than 2 GB will not improve the map and it will increase the price.

  • Options for replacement card mother Studio XPS 9100

Are there replacement motherboards will be that adapts well in the case of Studio XPS 9100? If so, any suggestions for a nice high-end replacement? Thank you! Kent

  • Form factor card mother Studio XPS 9100 / size?

    I'd like to see if I can move at my Studio XPS 9100 motherboard to a smaller form factor case, but I don't know the size of the Board of Directors. Looks like it came in a full tower case. Does anyone know what the smallest case, is that it will fit inside? Maybe Micro ATX?

    Studio XPS 9100 manual shows all connectors of the motherboard and their functions for wiring. The question is whether or not the jury it self is mounting holes are identical to a standard size ATX motherboard. If this is the case, then it should fit in an ATX mid tower size.

  • Studio XPS 9100 drivers

    I intend to do a clean install of Win 7 Pro 64 bit.

    The most disturbing aspect is always the drivers: I find the Dell Drivers page very confusing because even when I let the Dell software detects my system, it gives me many more options that I think I need, including multiple versions of the same driver.

  • Noise of Dell Studio XPS 9100 CPU fan failure CPU fan

    My Dell Studio XPS 9100 did a loud intermittent noise for a few months and then last week I got a CPU fan fault message while booting. I blew all the dust from the fan and I always get the CPU fan failure message. I finally got the system starts by placing a small fan blowing air into the funnel will CPU/processor fan.

    Alas, my warranty expired 2 weeks ago. I'm kicking myself contacting technical support a few months ago, when the problem started.

    I need to replace the fan. What parts need me, and where can I get them?

    Thanks much for the reply.

    Thank you. After being tossed a little I transferred to the sales and ordered a new CPU fan for a cost total which includes shipping and taxes of $42.25. Too bad it wasn't 2 weeks ago, then she would have been free.

    The seller said that I would not need thermal paste. Is this correct?

  • External port eSATA Studio XPS 9100 does not

    Hi all

    I have a Dell Studio XPS 9100and external eSATA port does not work or it is not detected. I have a Seagate FreeAgent external drive and it can't detected, and it is NOT power up when I plug it into the eSATA port. The FreeAgent drive works fine as it is detected on my laptop Dell Studio XPS 1645eSATA port. The drive is detected on the 9100 when I use the USB cable to the drive (plugged into a USB port, of course).

    I tried to do some research online and some suggestions were to activate via the BIOS eSATA port, but the eSATA port is enabled in the BIOS. The wrong driver is installed on the device? I see the Intel ICH10 Family 6 Port SATA AHCI Controller-3 has 22 in the Device Manager. Is this the right driver to recognize the external eSATA port or is there something else wrong with the 9100?

    Does anyone think that the external eSATA port requires an external drive with its own power supply? The 9100 is a 2010 model year environment, but I think it should not require a player with an external power supply.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi all

    I grabbed an eSATA disk that has its own power supply (AC adapter) and trendy source on eSATA back port and he recognized the car.

    It seems that the Dell Studio XPS 9100 has of an old eSATA port requiring a drive eSATA that she is clean in order to be energy source active on its external eSATA port. If you try to use a disk without its own power supply eSATA it won't work because the former eSATA ports enabling the way as the USB ports and the new USB ports hybrid eSATA . My laptop Dell Studio XPS 1645 a hybrid one of these ports so apparently it is why my Seagate FreeAgent working on it and NOT on the 9100 desktop. You can't plug a USB cable in the 9100 eSATA port certainly isn't a hybrid eSATA port.

    I guess I solved my own question.

  • Studio XPS 9100, Ati HD5670, flickering of small format black and white square

    I have Dell XPS 9100 Intel Core i7 CPU 8 GB 64 - bit Windows 7 OS.  ATI Radeon HD5670.  I found a new driver dated December 2014 and loaded.  The small blocks flick went then small black line sometimes appears on both monitors, but it's not the worst of it. This new drive made me all kind of pain.  When the launch IE I get message that IE has failed.  When I open file Explorer it fails also.  I got the drive to a 2010 version and the black line of thinking in the middle of the screen has disappeared but flickering blocks returned.  I did a restore to return six days ago, but IE and Explorer of files are still not.  I really screw that constituent.

    I was wondering if my Radeon video card failed and if you think that it is perhaps the issue which video card would you propose?   At least a new video card would have current reference to the Web site with the current drivers or driver.  I don't do games but want to run three monitors (two running).  This machine is about four years with two internal 1 TB DASD, one Internal 500 GB and a 1 TB external drive.

    HELP me please I'm in trouble AND I THANK YOU for your help.


    I forgot to mention that I ran a Scan of the file as an administrator of the DOS command prompt, I am under MS Virus and Malware full Scan.  There is no longer a couple, I can take as the safe boot mode see if problem persists.  And then perform a clean boot and finally a scan of RAM memory.  I already did a restore of the system 8 days ago.  Guess I can make one "in Place Upgrade' as the last step at least think a person would be better off buying the new video card since this problem of flicker developed a few months previously and not related to my efforts to update HD5670 ATI Radeon driver to the latest version.  It seems almost obvious to me is a graphics card problem, because a change in the Version of the driver to change the shape of video problem scrapie blocks of black and white in the corner of the scree in a detroit thin black line in the middle of the screen.  However technology can be difficult, but does not seem plausible as a problem of video card with the new driver changing the display screen problem but by introducing the serious problem of failing IE and Windows Explorer.  The full scan just finished with a browser quarantined modifier.

  • XPS 720, video card and sound card upgrades?

    Greetings-

    A friend gave me his old Dell XPS 720, which I updated to Win7-32.  The upgrade went fine--too easy in fact - and now I'm sorting on all other smaller issues.

    I need a recommendation for a new graphics card and a new sound card.  The only thing I use this box is to maintain a website via Adobe CS4 Dreamworks, with the other tools in the suite and surf the net.  No game, no rendering heavy, etc.

    What I want-

    -Decent color - graphics but no fan if possible.  The map in this area is now an INVIDIA GTS of the G-Force-250 - and the fan noise is terrible.  My needs are quite easy - is there a map smaller, quieter that I can put on this case in order to eliminate the a fan (which seems to be the highest fan in the Pack)?

    Sound card - open what it is as long as it fits and works with this box and Win7-32.

    Thanks for your help/advice-

    -Sean

    The integrated SigmaTel 9227 audio system should be good for your use. But any PCI sound card purchased locally would work or you could get an its PCIe x 1 card. Here's what we delivered =
    CT602 PCI Sound Blaster
    F7710 PCI Sound Blaster X - Fi
    WW202 PCI Sound Blaster X - Fi XtremeMusic

    You should check newegg for price and photos for the PCIe x 16 video cards. This link is sorted by lowest price to highest. None of them work so you have at least a 750w power supply. When you have found a video on the site map, I would look for it locally.

  • Cannot start Dell Studio XPS 9100 - is the PSU?

    These symptoms are compatible with a faulty PSU?

    I have a 4 years, processor Dell Studio XPS Desktop Intel i7 960 (expired warranty) 18 GB DIMM: 64 Bit Windows 7 ultimate OS.

    Computer will not start. (Dell 0M1J3H 525W) POWER supply has a green LED on the back of the envelope of the computer with a black switch diagnosis. When the computer reads the green light is on.

    If I press the Start button nothing happens - the white light on the Start button does not illuminate. But if I press the button to start for at least 12 seconds then release and press it again the logo Dell at the edge of the bezel turns on for a second and the fans turn at 20 degrees, but the computer does not start and there is no light on the Start button. The same thing happens if I press the black test on the power supply switch after the button of start for about 12 seconds. If I quickly press the test switch repeatedly from 40 to 50 times, four fans will turn a little bit but stop as soon as I stop to press the test switch. If a power is to learn in the light of the collar and the fans, but the computer starts and the green light does not go or flash. As directed by Dell, the green light is supposed to be activated when the current flows through the power supply and the green light is supposed to flash if I press the test switch when the computer is turned off.

    More Dell' diagnostic instructions I disconnected the motherboard and all the readers and the video card in the PSU, but the test was always negative, that would normally indicate a defective power supply.

    However, if the front bezel blinking on and fans to be powered for a fraction of a second, which excludes a failure of the power supply?

    GENERAL INFORMATION: One night several months ago fans have started racing as the computer was overclocking but my meter showed only 30% CPU usage. Computer subsequently began to lose power and restart at random times.  No crash dumps or stop. Just a loss of power and a reboot. Sometimes the auto restart would work and sometimes it wouldn't. When the computer restarts will not it will not re-start and there was no light white or orange, when I pressed the Start button. If I hold the start 12 seconds or more and then released it and press start logo collar flash momentarily, but no start and no other light. I would try restarts several times, sometimes by pressing the button start hundreds of times before the computer would finally boot. When you start the computer it would normally sometimes several days before losing power again.

    The last restart was more than a week and the computer normally lasted more than a week until yesterday when he lost power.

    I think that the power supply may be bad. But the only other time that I replaced a power supply on an old HP Pavilion. In this case, the computer was completely dead. I'm confused by the momentary illumination of the Dell logo on the collar and the shaking of the power to the fans. Which excludes a failure or default PSU?

    The button BIST says that the power supply is bad.  The BIST button isn't the power button.

    The LED on the back does not mean that the power supply is good.

    The BIST (built in Self test) is LED and button are for.

    Some Dell computers have power supplies that include a self-diagnostic function. The test for power button is visible at the rear of the system. This witness is not the same as the power led on the chips on the motherboard (which said also only + 5VSB does NOT work the power supply is OK). Press and hold the switch self-diagnosis of food-
    * If the light is green, the power supply works
    * If the light is off, get the power supply replaced

  • Replacement of Studio XPS 9100 PSU

    Therefore, what I find a bit absurd; We have a 9100 XPS that we suspect if there is no power supply, so order us a new Thermaltake 850W unit and replace the one that came with the unit.  The system tried to start (fans tried starting to turn), then immediately stops, with a second try seconds later.  I assumed the new PSU was not under load and got another one under the RMA. Plug replacement to find the occurrence of the thing.  Is there something I'm missing here?  In all my years working on computers, this is a first, now I'm assuming it has something to being a Dell machine.

    Turn off the power to something else than the motherboard and remove any video card.

    If it lights up then attach the hard drive and the optical drive, etc.

    looking a linear power supply and ATX instead of EPS12v and 12v only part of the problem.

    If the 3.3v / 5v rails can extinguish 225W and the + 5VSB is 4Amps then there may be a problem elsewhere.

    The output combined on the Thermaltake 850 is only 130W while the DELL W299G is much higher at 225W. instead of 25A 25A its 32 a and 30 a for the 5v / 3.3V rails.
