I purchased a dell optiplex 5060 small form factor and planned to install a 16gb 2666mhz drr4 patriot viper elite 2 a 2tb solid state patriot p210 along with a msi ventus gtx 1630 4gb. I also intended to order a 240 watt psu to provide slightly more power than the 200 watt unit would supply.

It's seldom wise to use a private Dell, particularly a SFF, to transform it into a gaming setup.

Probably not. Have you verified the GPU size in relation to the SFF case? Also, did you inspect the spacing between the PCI-e slot and the power supply beneath it? An SSD might fit if there is a 2.5" slot and/or an M.2 connector available. I’m not very familiar with these newer models. The memory could function, and SFF might refer to laptop-style memory—double-check what you have and what you need. You’d likely need a custom power supply with proprietary connectors for this setup. What motivates your decision to update the machine this way? Are you planning it for gaming or for more office work?
