Compaq Presario SG2025IL: updating graphics card

I have a Compaq Presario SR2025IL, which was used a computer to type. Now, he was bequeathed to me and I want to update its graphics to make a gaming computer. Any suggestions for a graphics card?

Thank you for the additional information and the link with your computer's specifications, @NeelCool.

Before making any recommendations, I want you to know that your computer is not simply cabable of being a machine good game.  The most important thing against the fact that the maximum memory is only 2 GB, DDR.  It is simply not enough to work with recent intensive video games.  In addition, the only expansion slots are PCI and AGP.  They are very slow.  I'd rather see you save money and buy a newer computer when you can afford it.

    Hello:

    The Nvidia 730 series cards do not work on an old PC.

    The BIOS will not accept it.

    If you want a nVidia card which is close to the 730, you go with GT 630.

    Also, there is a workaround to use the integrated graphics card and upgrading to W10.

    See the discussion below.  You launch the DVD you made from the windows desktop and ignore the checking of updates.

  • Equium P300-16 t and update graphic card

    Hi all.

    I was thinking about upgrading my graphics on the computer laptop satellite P300-16 t. I have not opened yet so my question is, has anyone here opened this machine? If so, is there a way to install a dedicated graphics card? i.e. the pcie? Could someone please advise if there are institutions in the machine to upgrade my graphics?

    My gratitude in advance for any help.

    In General, update graphics card is not supported and cannot be done.
    Toshiba has written about it in http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    A common problem with portable mobile is the heat and to built the effective cooling system. Each laptop has optimized cooling system. More powerful graphics card will produce more heat, and this balanced hardware platform will not properly work. Can result in permanent damage from overheating or material.

    Maybe stupid comment now, but if you need more powerful your laptop sell on eBay and buy a new one.

  • Power supply with updated graphics card update

    I am considering buying the HPE-150 t with an improved graphics card standard:

    1 GB ATI Radeon HD 5770 [2 DVI, HDMI, DP, VGA adapter]

    I went on http://support.asus.com/PowerSupplyCalculator/PSCalculator.aspx?SLanguage=en-us to the appropriate power needed for this gauge system, and it recommends a minimum 450 Watt power supply.

    If I ended up buying the HPE-150 t with updated graphics card, I get a power supply improved to compensate for the increase of energy consumption?


    Here are the specs of your motherboard.  It indicates a 350 Watt PSU.  However, if you scroll down to hardware options, you will see a 460 watt power supply associated with the 5770 video card.

  • Block POWER & Presario SR2020NX upgrade graphics card

    Hello world!

    My sister in law has a Compaq SR2020NX with one, (I think), 250 watts power supply.  She would spend the onboard graphics chip 6150LE to a dedicated card.  I am sure that she will need a new power supply for it but am not sure that the form factor.

    Can someone tell me if its system will accept a standard ATX PSU?  Or otherwise, that I am limited to?  Require a 24-pin (or 20 + 4) connector on the main Board?

    The PSUS that I'm interested in right now are the Antec earthwatts EA430

    or the Antec earthwatts EA380

    In addition, given that I'm here, can I also ask on the graphics card?  I think something like this model EVGA,

    One last thing, does anyone know if the chip 6150LE will accept the standard Nvidia driver?  If not, is there another source for updates of driver for this chip?

    Any help will be certainly appreciated!

    Thank you

    Any ATX should work.  The 24-pin is designed to adapt the pins 20 connections... the extra pins hang on the side.  I would recommened make the connector 20 + 4 pin... so if you don't need the extra pins you can just stand out them.

  • Compaq Presario SR1739UK update

    I have a Compaq Presario SR1739UK I want to upgrade the RAM, graphics card and processor so that in series Windows 7 much more quickly than he is and get all the features of Windows 8 (except touch, of course). It's my kids PC, so while I want them to do well enough, it will not be used for the online games or something like that, especially it will be used for web browsing and streaming of media through media library, so I don't want to spend a lot of money. Before I go ahead and buy all the parts I wanted to check that I can do and if there are traps I need to know.

    RAM

    It's easy, I replace just the existing cards to 2 x 512 MB with 2 x 1 GB cards

    Graphics

    This PC has an ATI Radeon Express chipset built in. I understand that I can not remove it, but I should be able to add a graphics card on the PCI or PCI - E slots right? Any recommendations on a good replacement? He didn't need to make amazing graphics of games or something like that, but it would be nice if it could handle Aero in Windows 7 and Windows 8 multi-tasking and don't want to spend ridiculous money - up to £50 or £60 I guess. Also should I upgrade the PSU?

    Processor

    It is the delicate issue. This PC has an Asteropi-GL8E motherboard with a Pentium 4 processor and looking at specifications supported on the HP site, it seems that it is only expandable to Intel Pentium D820 or D900, which are abandoned. Can anyone tell if I can use a more modern processor, ideally bicoeur with a bit more ooomph and if so what models?

    Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated, especially around the issue of the processor.

    Hello:

    Only, you would be able to upgrade to one of the Pentium D 9xx processors. You can find a decent supply of sell them (used, but tested and functional) in ebay.

    So you can go for the max - 945. I would like to get the one with sSpec SL9QQ.

    Video: I need to know what the power supply, but for me a sure bet would be an opportunity but tested and functional ATI Radeon HD 2400 PCi Express video card.

    The Dell card will work in your RESUME.  You will need a cable of the monitor or DVI adapter DVI / VGA, because it has only a DVI offline. It has a S-video out to TV connection, but most of the monitors is not a S-Video input

    I prefer fanless cards because they are silent and without fan out.

    But it is up to you.

    This path allows you to save a lot of money, and you get a pretty powerful PC.

  • Qosmio G40 - update graphics card

    Hello world

    I know it works has already answered in October 2009, but I have a few not 100% course info on the upgrade of the graphics cards. Now I have a qosmio g40-10 with nvidia geforce 8600 with 512 video memory. Because this card is purely not enough for the high-end gaming today, I want to update at least 1 GB of video memory. Like many people here, I tried to find some information online but its just waste of time. I asked in each PC store in my town this topic and 60% of them responded that it is possible, but it will cost you so.

    They could not tell exactly witch card should take but logically it will be nvidia series that were used by Toshiba manufacter, what I'll do I will find some young model of Toshiba nvidia cards and will just try to adapt it. Logically that laptops Toshiba chassy is almost the same, of course mounting screws can be different, but ultimately, it's a project. The only problem is the motherboard, I heard that this motherboard is unable to accept certain graphics cards.

    If you have some info on this please let me know.
    Also different (highest card) coz, there will be cooling problem so if you have ideas to solve heating, please share it with me.
    Thanks much adrian

    Hello Adrian

    I guess that you know very well that the possibilities of upgrade on mobile units are very limited; especially GPU or CPU upgrade and laptop manufacturers offer don t any kind of support. Because of the design specific common problem for mobile units is cooling system. More performance means more heat and more heat, compromised of portable computer hardware switch or damage.

    Manufacturers of portable don t support cela and don offers t any helpful info about it. GPU upgrade in my opinion is not a good idea. OK, you can do with your laptop that you want and play a little bit, but I'm afraid that your project is too risky and will not end with success of m.

    If you need a more powerful computer I think it's time for the new portable computer with more powerful hardware. What you think so.

    I really like my laptop, but an upgrade is imminent and before I take the plunge I just want to see if it is all options other than a new laptop.

    Hello

    Processor and graphics card update is not supported and there is no list with compatible processors. If everything is on your own risk. In the worst case a new processor will not be recognized from the motherboard or BIOS, probably you need a new module of cooling too so I wouldn t this

    In addition, the graphics card is attached to the motherboard and cannot be exchanged.

    Sorry mate, but there is no possibility to upgrade the graphics card built into your machine, as the graphics card is "wired", which means that the integrated graphics chip is soldered on the motherboard.

    So, you could upgrade RAM HDD & to increase performance, but who are the only options to get more performance out of your machine.

    Hey there,

    I have a Satellite Pro 6100 and I'm VERY happy with it, I for two years now and it's always one of the fastest on the market and he got all the necessary devices as well.
    The only problem is that I just 16 MB on my GeForce 420 Go graphics card. I can't play the latest version of a racing game that I'm a bit addicted to it.
    So, I'm looking for an update to my graphics card. I know that there are 440 GB maps as well with 32 MB on board.
    Can anyone advise me on what to do? Is there a GFX card which adapts instead of 420 go I have atm? I'll be able to add for example 16 MB to 420 go? (probably n00b question)

    Any help would be really appreciated!

    Thanks in advance,
