Upgrading Dell G5 5000 with a RTX 4070 TI Super 16gb dual

I have been upgrading my G5 5000 with i7 10700F and very happy on how it is performing so far, but with more and more LLM usage, my already upgraded GPU (I have a RTX 3060 12Gb there) has been the bootleneck.

Currently, my G5 5000 has 64Gb ram, 4 SSDs (2tb each): 1 M2 + 1 M2 (installed in the PCI 3.0x4 with an adaptor) + 2 Crucial MX 500 SSDs.

The PSU is a 500w, and I don´t think Dell has any other option beyond this for this mode.

The RTX 4070 TI Super was reported to consume 285w, and adding the 65w for the 10700F, more 50w for the motherboard, 10w for all the SSDs, it is still under 500w.

But, given this GPU is not in compatible list of Dell for this model, I am wondering if it will not work.

Anyone already had tried this? 

Thank you

Many users were able to upgrade to high power graphics cards and measure their performances at this benchmark site  https://www.userbenchmark.com/System/Dell-G5-5000/197197

While I could point out the possibility, I can't tell you which power supplies were used for those configurations.
