X51-R2, graphics card upgrade?
My son's X51 R2 just started having graphics problems. Now, the GTX660 has stopped working completely. Is there a list of other cards that will work in this SFF box? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
System specs:
i7-4770 cpu
GTX660 GPU
330w psu

I would first, power off, open the cover, remove the GTX 660, blow out all the dust in the chassis and GTX 660, replace the GTX 660, and retest. If still no go, below are the best Dell validated video cards =
H4P1K Nvidia GeForce GTX 960, 2GB, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI
YX6VC AMD Radeon R9 370, 4GB, DVI-I/DVI-D/DP/HDMI
* You cannot use any video card that uses more than 150w on our 330w power supply
* The video card must not be bigger than 9.83" x 4.3" unless you "modify" the chassis which is not covered by Dell
Customers have stated that the retail GeForce GTX 1080 will work in the X51-R2. Check out this video. So the GeForce GTX 1070 and GeForce GTX 1060 should also work.

Thank you Chris M! I will try reseating it first and if that doesn't work I will go with the GTX 960!
