550-153w Pavilion: new video card

Hello, I want to get the ram dedidcated to my graphic card of 256 and its 128 right now. Ive read in another post on the forum that it would be better to get another (goo.gl/Z4F0f1). I was wondering what would be the best video card to get for this need.

@ShepardPotato, welcome to the forum.

The problem that you have with the upgrade the video card is the power supply unit (PSU).  It's only 180W.  Most new video cards require a minimum of 400 w to work properly.  You should check to see if a stanard ATX PSU will enter in the space provided for the existing power supply.  If there is enough space, this power supply should work.  You should get this one measures of the plug.

When you upgrade the PSU, here is a video card that will make what you need.  If you need more information, you should contact the manufacturer's Technical Support.

  • Pavilion HPE 440F: need new video card for HPE-440F

    Salvation;

    The ATI Radeon HD 5570 in my Pavilion HPE 440F appears to be dead, or is doing. The fan has stopped working and I think the map has overheated.

    I'm running Windows 7 x 64.

    Anyway - I would like to install a new card - and best video. It is, since it is HP, I bet that not all cards are compatible with my system.

    For example, I can buy an ATI Radeon SR-290, which gets much higher than my current card pass mark. Or maybe even a NVidia card might be a better value for the money.

    Can someone point me to a list of compatible video cards for my system?

    Thank you

    p.s. My Linux box is not an HP.

    Ubuntu_Kid, welcome to the forum.

    The problem you are having is, most of the newer video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  Your computer was released on August 26, 2010.

    Some of the manufacturers have developed a VBIOS that will allow their cards to work with legacy BIOS.  I know that the EVGA has done with some of their cards.  I suggest to call their Tech Support (1888-880-3842) to see if they have a card that will work with your computer.

  • Pavilion NC768AA #ABA: HP Pavilion model. a6719f new video card with the new power supply?

    Hello!

    So, I won money to buy (hopefully) a new video card!

    However, I have a problem.

    I don't know which one to get!

    SO, someone please, please recommend a video card for intermediate level games.

    (My budget is less than $280)

    My PC has stock everything.

    Thus, it was purchased as it was when you would get everything first he.

    Yes, I need also a new power supply that is included with my budget.

    Thank you!

    Revionion, welcome to the forum.

    I'd be happy to help you in your choice.  The main problem is, recent video cards require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS to legacy.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-October 2012.  The latest maps not requiring UEFI were the series GTX 640.  However, MSI has made a card that has a VBIOS hybrid which can operate with a BIOS.  The best thing to do is to choose a video card you like and contact Technical Support from the manufacturer to ensure that it will work on your computer as it is almost 7 years old.  This will save you problems.  They are the experts on their cards.

    I like Corsair power supply units (PSU).  I suggest at least 500W.  This will give you plenty of power for any card that works in your computer.

    If you have any other questions, let me know.  I'll be happy to help you.

  • Pavilion Slimline s3120N will not recognize the new video card

    I can't get my computer to recognize and use a new video card. I tried 3 cards (GeForce 8400GS... cards 2different and Radeon HD 4550). The computer continues using the onboard video. For each card, I did the following:

    Go to configuration, advanced and changed the main graphics card 'on board' to 'PCI-E '.

    Saved and let the computer start.

    Stop and insert the new video card into the PCI-E slot

    Start the computer and installed the latest driver

    Computer restarts

    No matter what I do, it always uses the embedded video. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. How can I use the PCI-E slot/video card? Any suggestions?

    I think that your problem may be the power supply unit (PSU).  The video card that you have installed require a minimum of 300W/350W.  The power supply of your computer is perhaps only 180W; 220W at the most.  You can check by opening the case and by reading the label on.  It's just too much difference for the card to function properly.

  • Pavilion 9220y video card update

    Hello
    I was hoping that an expert can help me upgrade/configure a new video card for a desktop HP Pavilion Elite 9220y.

    I have done the research to shed light on the issue, but would REALLY appreciate some help!

    So just that the machine has now integrated ATI Radeon HD 4350 - that it comes with, who I am is of course very well for the casual user, but I want a massive update to play new games.  Unfortunately, I'm stuck with this computer, so I can't build a new machine custom, so I just want to update my video card today... the rest of the system works very well if.

    My questions are:

    • Can I upgrade the video card on this specific computer HP Pavillion 9220y?
    • I read that I can replace the card using the PCIex16 slot? but is this slot PCI-E 1.0 or 2.0?  I could not find in the sheets...
    • If so, what kind of cards are compatible with it and are good for games?
    • I buy a power supply additionanl to run the additional power demand?  If so, what is a good thing that will work for the 9220y? http://www.Newegg.com/store/subcategory.aspx?subcategory=58&name=power-supplies

    It's just a lot to wrap around my head and I want to make sure I go about it the right way, before you update or buy anything!
    Again, any help would be appreciated more
    Steve

    Hi Steve,.

    1. Yes, you can install a video card in your PC.

    2. the discrete graphics card will move into the slot PCI-E x 16.  HP is not posting slot PCI-E card, but a video designed to the 2.0 PCI card will normally be backward compatible with the PCI 1.x ports.

    3 game cards have different levels of performance and your choice will depend on the game being used and set of parameters. Check out forum and the game manufacturer's web site and see what others are using.

    4. more decent video cards will require a bigger power supply.  The p9220y has only a 300 Watt power supply.

    Here are the specifications of the motherboardfor the p9220y. Since most of the better video cards are wider than normal single slot card, then adjacent locations on the PCI-E x 16 slot must be vacant.

    I make a few suggestions, but I'm really in the dark about your playing conditions.

    TheCorsair CX600should have enough power for most video cards.

    TheNVIDIA GTX 550 TIshould have enough power for most video games with the higher settings. Screen resolution is a factor of performance.

    You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

    1. Specifications
    2. Total power - important
    3. amperage 12 + v - important
    4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
    5. Warranty
    6. I7 and SLI ready
    7. Efficiency rating
    8. Cost
    9. The physical size - standard ATX PSU is 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "give or take a few tenths
    10. Only one + 12 volt rail is a better choice.

    www.Newegg.com has many choices of power supplies.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake...

    Review the performance of NVIDIA specifications. Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

    Hi JM,

    Did you remove the Intel HD graphics drivers prior to installing the ATI graphics card?

    Your PC comes with one of the following built-in Intel graphics drivers:

    • Graphics Intel HD 4400 (GT2)

  • New video card kills her

    I decided to add a video card to my HP Pavilion a1640n (intel) computer Windows XP Media Center.  I'm not a gamer, so I chose a cheap express card ATI Radeon PCI with 256 MB of memory [PowerColor HD3450].  After deactivation of the graphics card integrated and the installation of the new video card and drivers, I had beautiful graphics but no sound.   [Physical connections seemed good as well as the volume of my computer settings is not on mute;]  When I removed the video card and re-activated the integrated graphic card, my returned his computer.

    What can I do to try to get the sound works with a new graphics card?

    Thank you.

    Try going into the BIOS and under change Onboard Sound it self to "Enabled".

    I heard that it suits it.

  • Install the new video card

    I have a HP Pavilion m7500y PC running Windows XP. I would like to install a new video card to display on both monitors. Installing a video card is possible with this machine? The card I have has a VGA, HDMI and a DVI input connection. If possible, do I need anything special to install and use this card? Thank you for your help.

    I wouldn't worry the food until the video card is selected.  Decide if a new power supply is needed.  Many new cards high power have a 'special' which will have all the power supplies.  According to the map, adapters for power fittings may come with the card.  A respected power supply name is Cosair, Antec, or Thermalake, but many are just as reliable at the best prices.

  • New video card.

    Hello

    I have a desktop HP pavilion p6-2106 and I want a new video card, so I can play some of the games of "new".

    It doesn't have to be so I can't play evry thing on max settings but just low/medium with a decent pace so I'm looking for a decent videocard with a good price but I don't really know what is compatible with my PC.

    here is a link to the plug.

    hope someone knows a good map of video for a good price.

    Try one of the video cards below.

    MSI NVIDIA GTX N750 TI and the MSI GTX N750 TF if cards are not available at Newegg then try Amazon or Tiger Direct. Be sure to get the exact model.

  • New video card conflict?

    I just installed a Zotec GT240 video card in my pc m7650n. It is one of the few my 300w power supply will support so I don't want to give up on this to guickly.

    The problem is when I install my realtek sound devices 'missing '. I hear through my USB headset, but nothing in my speakers and no option to change the output device. I'm not showing any conflict in Control Panel. Try re-installing the drivers realtek just puts me a message that "microsoft UAA HD drivers must be present", even if they are already installed.

    If I pull back video card it comes down real easily so I wonder if the audio has covered somehow on the integrated graphical subsystem. I'm not a great player, but I would like to be able to occasionally run the sims 3.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    With the new video card installed, enter your bios menu (tap away at f1 or f10 when you start the PC - try f1 first).  Under the control of tab advanced which Onboard Audio is set to active.  If you need to make a change, press f10 and Yes to save the changes and see if that helped.

  • 310 - 1125y in expansion with the new video card?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP TouchSmart 310-1125y and its custom Quanta DA0NZ2MB6A0 (HP Aronia) motherboard. According to the specifications, there is no provision for the installation of a new video graphics card.

  • New video card - no video

    Hi, I just bought one sucks tc - 105. My game performance was not satisfactory, and I tried upgrading the video card with something, I had to hang out. I installed it in the pcie slot hooked the monitor and start got no image. Tested the card on another machine, it still works. I was told, by a representative of acer, it's because the power supply could not handle the card. I bought a new power supply and a new video card. Installed both, still no picture. I thought that maybe there was a video conflict with the GPU "on edge". There is nothing in the bios on this subject. I don't know if it would be possible to remove it, but I don't know where find t. PC is brand new that he has had no time to get a defective pcie that according to me.

    I did some reading. It turns out that it was safe "boot mode" bios and options "launch the csm" necessary adjustments. New hardware is not recognized without the people.
