That's the one with a 250W power supply, and can only fit low profile cards. there are a few GTX 1650 low profile cards that only need a 300W PSU. You'd still need to upgrade your power supply, and thus your case. In that situation, replacing your case and power supply is the first thing to look into. I am not sure whether the Dell motherboard actually accepts a different power suply though. (edit: just checked, seems to be a standard 24pin connector, to that's good).

I can recommend the list that pjs37 listed above, but I would spend $10 more for the EVGA 500 BR which is certified and should work well with a low-end dedicated GPU. Oh yeah I originally had a bigger PSU in there but the budget is really tight. I would spend the extra $10-$20 for the 500-650w PSU Edited September 4, 20205 yr by pjs37

September 5, 20205 yr Spending nearly $500 on a sub par system seems like a really bad idea. Pre-builts also notoriously have proprietary power supplies, motherboards, etc.. You are going down a path that might be very expensive and painful. This coming from someone who fully upgraded a prebuilt and made it work for nearly 10 years. But when you start talking about power supply/case you will be better off just starting from scratch nowadays.
