Issues with GTX low profile1650 being recognized on my Dell 7040 sff

Hello, I'm having some issues with my GTX 1650 being recognized by my Dell 7040 sff. I have a 240w psu installed and the 1650 fits perfectly in. I just found out that the max wats for the 16pci slot is 50w and the full power consumption for 1650 is 75w. Is there anything I could do to have this work?

So it doesn't POST at all, is that right?

@Oliver Valdez Guzman​ Yeah, I checked in bios as well.

It is not a power issue. The 50w limit is only for cooling concern in SFF. 240w psu should be all right. Use another desktop to test this 1650

@redxps630​ 

I thought it might as well be present to avoid overloading the motherboard traces or the psu rail that powers the 6-pin main connector

some 1650 may add 6 pin power connector if it is factory overclocked but most 1650 like 1050 do not require 6 pin
