  • Adding a graphics card from nVidia GT640 to a new desktop HP Envy

    Since buying a new HP ENVY 700-147c desktop PC and a new nVidia GEForce 640 GE video card on in November 2013 (cybermonday sales), I could not have the HP Envy boot with the GE 640 card in place. After hitting the Start button, with one of the HDMI ports allow (same results using a VGA > HDMI adapter), I get a series of POST messages is with the screens VGA HDMI to stay black.

    I removed internally AMD video drivers such as recommended by the technical support from nVidia, but with the same results. When I removed the card GE 640, the Win 8.1 has reset the original drivers, and I can run off the coast of the internal VGA / HDMI ports on the desire, but with much lower resolution than the 640 GE would allow card.

    I repeated this procedure and checked the BIOS to see if there is an adjustment could be made, but none have been noted... Please advise if I have missed anything in the BIOS of envy.

    I repeated the procedure with a well-known nVidia GEForce 9500GT card from another HP Pavilion PC running Windows 7 Pro. Power over the results were the same. black screens with POST messages about 4-5 seconds after switching on.

    After the withdrawal of the 9500GT card, I was still able to operate with the integrated graphic card HP Envy.

    Please advise on how I can add the GE 640 card, I bought the new envy, for graphics work I do.

    Hello:

    You need to change two settings of the BIOS, then reinstall your new video card.

  • Adding new graphics card...

    I have a HP Pavilion p7-1235 with A8-5500, Radeon 7560 D onboard graphics processor and running Windows 7. I intend to add a discreet graphics card, but also an improved power. I did some research on what card/power to get and have reduced a little in mind. But my question is the integrated graphics card will automatically deactivate when the system detects the discreet card? Or I have to mess with the BIOS? Any help or a link to the instructions for this process would be greatly appreciated!

    This image needs. It's thecard from the motherboard installed in your PC. As soon as a video card, motherboard BIOS disables the onboard video. You don't have to make any changes on your own for that to happen.

  • Pavilion p6 - 2220t Desktop can't see Gygabyte GV - N210D3 - 1GI graphics card

    I added a graphics card from Gigabyte GE Force 210 GV-N210D3 - 1GI to my desktop HP Pavilion W7 p6 - 2220t. Reason: p6 - 2220t came with DVI (without Audio), and I need full HDMI.  The card went to the fine and certainly relies on the motherboard. But when I try to install the drivers Gigabyte I get error: NVIDIA INSDTALLER can NOT CONTINUE. THIS GRAPHIS DRIVER COULD NOT FIND THE CHART COMPATIBLE MATERIAL.  So ....... Can I HAVE to DISABLE INTEGRATED GRAPHICS card for the new card to work?  If so, HOW can I DISABLE the INTEGRATED GRAPHICS card?

    Hello

    Really, you should consider buying this MSI NVIDIA GTX 750 for $120 after rebate.  He will be head and shoulders most of the cards for the money.

  • HP ENVY Phoenix 860-078na: adding a second graphics card for HP ENVY Phoenix 860-078na

    I think to buy a HP ENVY Phoenix 860-078na and I was wondering if it is able to take a second graphics card and can accommodate a Corsair H60 liquid CPU Cooler. Thank you

    Felix, welcome to the forum.

    There is only one PCI Express x 16 (Genesis 3) slot for a video card.  With respect to liquid cooling, medium size case do not have a lot of space.  I have a Phoenix 860-170VR with an R9-390 X video card and it is extremely tight.  However, having said that, I think you wouldl be pleasantly surprised by the way the computer will be with existing components.  I can play COD series on the best settings.

  • HP Envy 750-114: hp envy 750-114-added to a graphics card

    I am to buy HP Envy 750-114 and upgrade with a graphics card.  The one I found is low power, so it will be fine with the 300 watt power supply that comes with 750-114 envy.

    The problem is I want to order the video card for a refund until the PC (the refund will expire until the PC is delivered).

    The 750-114 envy will accept a card of video of the form factor ATX size 7,76 "(L) x 5" (H)?

    I'm looking at one is the Gigabyte GV-N75TWF20C - 4GI.  It's the only sub - $200 4GB video card that I found that good performance and low power requirements.

    Here's the URL for the map in question:

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I just received a text with HP support session, and they indicated that the largest 4 GB card with dimensions of 7,76 "x 5" will fit in the case.

  • Adding graphics card for HP p6637c but...

    Hi people, I bought my wife an HP Desktop p6637c refurbed and replace the CPU by a more powerful AMD 2.6 4 core, I had laying of another HP desktop computer around. I also changed the power supply to a 550 watts I had. So now I was going to install an ATI Radeon HD 6450 of 1 GB card into the PCIe slot because the 'embedded' GPU has much to be desired.

    So here's the problem/question: when I checked in the Specifications of this computer section, I got the following: "integrated into the graphics card or the card PCI Express x 16 slot are usable at once; they are not usable at the same time"in the dropdown under the video card section. She says that it can accept an external card, but then has an asterisk noting the message I typed on it, (in quotes).

    Frankly, I have no idea what they are trying to say! Someone understand precisely what HP mean?

    Thank you

    Hello

    The message that you're referring to means that you cannot use graphs two devices at the same time, so if you install a graphics card in PCI Express x 16 slot, you can only use it to provide video output (ie the on-board video chip will be disabled).

    Kind regards

  • HP touchsmart adding graphics card

    I have a question.

    I have HP touchsmart computer, model 520-1070 uk with integrated graphics HD 2000.

    Can I add a better graphics card HD to the MXM format on my computer?

    It is very important for me, please help!

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP TouchSmart 520-1070uk and its card mother IPISB-NK (LavacaSB). According to the specifications, it supports;

    1 taken Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM)
    MXM 3.0 version: Type has
    <>

    In theory, this would indicate that you could install an appropriate type MXM card. In practice, this slot machine is designed for use in HP CTO models that come from the factory with the card already installed. Models with the card already installed have a completely different heatsink which hosts the MXM card. Your model has a heater which cannot recognize the cooling of a MXM card needs.

    In addition, the cards must be from HP and are expensive. Also, you may be unable to correct the source radiator / fan assembly to use with the MXM card.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Help on graphics card memory and upgrade for iMac

    Hello!

    I need advice on a good new graphics card for iMac 27 inch end 2012. My work is mainly in animation, Visual effects and game development soon, so I need an additional card to increase my speed.

    Currently, I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB card. Do you think I should stick to a similar card? Is there something new that will offer me better performance at an affordable cost?

    I don't have much money to spend, but I can certainly use additional graphics now.

    I have also 2 remaining memory locations that accepts DDR3 1600 MHz memory module, but it seems that this module is no longer available. If I had to choose between a graphics card and RAM, which should I go with?

    Finally, can I install these myself? I don't have any Apple Store around me and I do not trust the computer guys in my area.

    First of all, the iMacs are notoriously difficult to make something with except add RAM. Here is a good site where you can get some info on the dismantling, etc.:

    https://www.iFixit.com/

    Usually, graphics cards should be replaced with the same model/type of work (if any) - see above site for this kind of info. I'm quite sure that you cannot add just one - iMac is not designed for it.

    Regarding the RAM, just check out OWC for necessary RAM:

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L

    Check that your model is listed. I don't know where you would have been told that the RAM is no longer available (FWIW, Apple does not sell RAM and uses of third party RAM in the new Macs).

    I'd go with the RAM - how many do you have now? Adding RAM is easy.

  • Z1 HP - upgrade graphics card! Help, please!

    Hello world.

    First of all I would like to say my knowledge of graphics cards is very limited so if you would be kind enough to explain things to me step by step. Thank you

    So I bought a Z1 - model WM427EA #ABU - and have already updated the RAM, I want to update the graphics card because AFAIK that comes with my model is completely s * the graphics on borderlands (game) look terrible on my Z1 and shiny on my new classmates Vaio all-in-one. I played with the graphics settings in the game without success.

    I looked inside the Z1 and couldn't find something that looks like a graphics card. I looked at other models - one with the quadro 4000 - and they seem to have a black box, one on the left side while mine was just an empty space: s. According to most of the sites I have a card/controller "Intel HD Graphics 2000 Dynamic Video Memory Technology."

    It would be possible for me to say buy a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 (http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=GeForce+GTX+680 & id = 41) and paste it into my machine? I noticed that there a housing as if she had to go in a tower. I should locate and remove the controller/original graphics card before I could install it?

    I really hope HP havnt done so its only compatible with some cards. Which would defeat the purpose of the machine being easily expandable...

    Any help appreciated, thanks a lot

    Chris

    PS you can get the specifications to

    Make sure it is the Xeon E3-1245v2 if you intend to do this (noting the "v2" at the end)

    It's a new architecture than the E3-1245 ("v1" If you want) and the v2 has a major upgrade to the graphics capabilities on the former model, will perform a little better for the CPU to destination as well tasks. It should work more fresh and quieter too, as an added bonus. It should not cost more than either a v1.

    You can buy units in a sales package retail or OEM (just naked CPU). You get a heat sink with the retail package, but you don't use it. There is not generally a big cost difference between the two, however, perhaps only a few £/ $ extra for the retail box. I tend to hesitate to ebay, unless I can't avoid it (as with the MXM cards). You have problems to find a 1245v2 to stock from several reputable providers and potentially get a better deal on ebay also.

    Replace the CPU isn't too difficult, but I recommend checking out a few guides before you try it yourself - I don't dive in details here on a generic CPU swap because there is nothing I can say that google or youtube will not tell you 10 times more.

    There is nothing particularly unique about the replacement of the CPU in the Z. The cooler is set by a few screws and simply lifts off once they are free (and the fans are disconnected from the motherboard).

    Once it is off, clean the bottom with something that won't leave a residue (e.g., not something as a solvent for nail polish with perfumes etc.. I use TIM Akasa cleaner and it works very well). Decliper and open setting around the CPU, pop in the new processor carefully, noting the location indicated by the arrow in the corner of the CPU lines until the arrow on the socket. Re-engage the strain relief and apply little thermal grease directly on the CPU (there are many on the market, I use Arctic Silver 5). Make sure not to apply too much grease, you're going to a very thin layer, better youtube it for technique.

    Then all that remains is to replace the cooler (making sure not to forget to plug back in), close the PC and fire.

    EDIT: One more thing-update your BIOS to the latest version before swap you the processors, it could not start with the E3-1245v2 with a BIOS earlier, which gives you a nice 'Uh Oh' moment, before realizing you have to UN-swap and then re - Exchange processors again.

  • HPE 170-t: HPE 170 t - upgrade graphics card

    My graphics card died recently after nearly six years of intensive use by playing the Sims 3 and 4 series and make of graphic design projects.  I used the Radeon 4850 1 GB and it was a great card and a real workhorse.

    I have i7 4th gen 2.8 Ghz and a new WD 1 TB HD - my type of installed computer the Vision Tek 240 2 GB card but I found that it is not powerful enough to run 4 Sims on the spot.  So, I'm trying to find a suitable replacement who will agree on this old rigging and still lets me run with setting high Sims 4.

    Does anyone know if the Sapphire Radeon R7 260 x 2 GB of GDDR5 memory (11222-06 - 20 G) will take place on this system? My diet is 460 watts. Thank you very much for all the tips... :))

    Also just added more 2 GB of RAM to 8 GB of RAM total.

    Wolfie77, welcome to the forum.

    It becomes extremely difficult to recommend new cards video for older computers.  Latest maps need UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS.  HP didn't start using UEFI until mid-Octoeber, 2012.  I suggest you find the video card that you like and contact Technical Support from the manufacturer to help choose the best card for your needs that will work with your motherboard.  I know that MSI makes a card equipped with a switch so that it can work with legacy BIOS and UEFI' are.  The seller will pay for the shipping for you, but you pay for the shipping to them if the map does not work.  I do not spend money for something that does not benefit me.  I never buy components without talking to a Technical Support for the product.

  • Re: Satellite L670-12J - graphics card update possible?

    Hello

    Recently, I had to run some simulations in my laptop and my media Accelerator, Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD struggles for simulations of the same base.

    I want to add a card in my laptop, we know all compatible versions of graphics card that can be added, something around 1 GB atleast if possible.

    Thank you

    JW

    Hello

    Such an upgrade is not possible, mate. The graphics card is attached to the motherboard and so you can t Exchange it. It s not as easy as on the desktop due more small form factor.

    For simulations or games to say let s you should purchase a Qosmio laptop because they are specially designed for this type of applications. They are really great and fast. :)

  • Want to Phoenix 810-330qe: upgrade, update necessary graphics card power supply?

    I'm a Phoenix 810 - 330qe, currently equipped with the stock Nividia GTX 745. I bought a graphics card GTX 970 upgrade for better gameplay and use of possible VR helmet. I have not yet installed, but wonder if my power supply must be upgraded to handle it all. If so, will what power take?

    The new card is spec'd to draw 145W and recommend a power of 500W. The 745 GTX is spec'd respectively 55W and 300W. The current stock PSU is rated at 500W, but do not know if that pushes its limit. The only other setting I had installed an SSD alongside that of stock.

    Help suggestions, thank you.

    I would upgrade the PSU, considering that you've also added an SSD.

    Take a look at the Corsair Builder supply.
