I just bought Inspiron desktop 3030 i7-14700 with integrated GPU, 180W PSU.
I have old GTX from my previous PC and want to move it the new one but Dell doesn't want me to give the part number for 300W PSU so I couldn't order separately, if anybody has inspiron 3030 with NVidia, could you please check the Dell part number? or any suggestion for replacement, my GTX take power from MB.
Thanks.

The prebuild offers the 3rd choice for a 460W unit, which is what you'd get if possible. You might want to contact them and request the PSU to be purchased separately or return the unit to select the 460W option, ensuring it's not included in the original package.

Nvidia has several SKUs in their GTX lineup—what model do you own?

I attempted but they refuse to sell it without GTX, as I only select that option because it comes with Windows Home.
My PC arrived this morning with a 64GB RAM upgrade, not for gaming but for work—mainly RDP, SQL, and occasionally running a few VMs. GNS3 is used for practice.
My previous model had a GTX 1650.
