Forgot to mention

I forgot to mention, I used an adapter to plug the second hard drive in using the slimline power provided by the Optiplex PSU.  Just unplug the SATA/power from the optical drive, plug it into this adapter, and plug the other end into your hard drive as usual.  That way, all cables are in use inside the case, nothing's left hanging ;) 


Here's what it looks like:

  1. Hi Adam,

    nice job and very usable informations.
    I have a Optiplex 760 too. I would like upgrade the graphic card and I have some questions:

    - wich type of Sapphire Radeon HD6670 used you? Low profile like this:

    or regular like this:

    On the pictur I can't determine.

    - Your power supply is original? I have 255W power supply inside and AMD recommended 400w.

    Thank you in advance
